Template:R from trade name → Template:R from drug trade name – to clarify that the purpose of this template is much narrower than the current title implies. It is only for redirects from trade name of a drug to (or from) the International Nonproprietary Name (INN). If the template is renamed, the redirects from ambiguous titles should be deleted.

- Support per nom. Like most, I would not have guessed that it was about drugs on first glance at the title. Paintspot Infez (talk) 18:20, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support. Clearer. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:54, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support; the concept is also used in botany (more often called a trade designation or a selling name). We might actually want a template and category for that, but it's not this one. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:20, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

Fix case: Change all "International Nonproprietary Name" to "international nonproprietary name" per article title (and its talk page). Widefox; talk 09:40, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
