Should the article and title be specific to the term "A Body Shape Index" (ABSI) as defined in doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0039504, or should it be the more generic term "body shape index"? If the first option is preferred, the page should be moved to A Body Shape Index (with the "A" and with capitalization), I think. If the second is preferred, then it probably should be titled Body shape index, without the "A" and without capitalization. Deli nk (talk) 22:14, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

That is the correct name, "A Body Shape Index" - maybe to distinguish from other uses of BSI. No reason to capitalize any more than would capitalize body mass index. JuanTamad (talk) 03:13, 19 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
