-[[:Hyoscine]] → {{no redirect|Scopolamine}} – "Scopolamine" is the preferred name of the substance internationally, including in the USA, German-speaking world, French-speaking world, and Spanish-speaking world. Here is some relevant context: 'Alkaloid nomenclature was often the subject of heated and confusing debate, and a particular instance is relevant to the present discussion. "Hyoscine" - first prepared by Albert Ladenburg in 1880 - and "scopolamine" - first isolated by Ernst Schmidt from Scopola species in 1888 [...] - are synonyms, but a colourful controversy regarding their identity raged, especially in Germany, from their discovery until the early twentieth century. Both names continued to be used for many decades, the choice often seemingly dependent on the nationality of the writer, and by the mid-1920s, the name "hyoscine" had largely been abandoned except in England and associated countries [not including the USA].'

-*The drug is predominantly known as hyoscine in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Great Britain, the Republic of Ireland, Malta, and nearly all English-speaking countries, excepting the U.S.A.  This is the ''English'' Wikipedia.  What the Germans, or the Namibians, or the French, or the Belgians call it matters nothing at all, for the purposes of this project (that's for German Wikipedians or French Wikipedians to manage).  I disagree '''strenuously''' with bowing to American usage, when such usage is hardly universal; that's what redirects are for.--[[Special:Contributions/104.247.246.48|104.247.246.48]] ([[User talk:104.247.246.48|talk]]) 06:17, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
