Poorly-sourced WP:POVFORK of Protein toxicity. The sources cited are reliable, but are misrepresented: Of the references I could access, none use the term "protein poisoning" (though one of the references cited by Ref. 1 does), and Ref. 1 directly contradicts the first paragraph by describing the exact mode of toxicity in the Protein toxicity article. I propose a redirect to Protein toxicity, which has far better sourcing and far less SYNTH. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 20:43, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to "rabbit starvation". I agree with the keep arguments in the previous AfD that there is a real topic here, with sufficient reliable sources to represent it. There appears to be no call to slap a genericized and un-validated name like "protein poisoning" on it, though. Also cull that excessive list of See Alsos. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:44, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you go back and read the sources mentioning "rabbit starvation" (such as ref. 1 in the article and ref. 3 and 4 of the previous AfD), they're describing the exact phenomenon in the Protein toxicity article. In other words, nothing in the sources that I have read suggest this is a distinct illness from protein toxicity...they're both overproduction of ammonia from eating too much lean protein. It's thus redundant to the protein toxicity article, and its OR to give it another name (and a hatnote) suggesting this is a distinct topic. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 11:09, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect with a very selective merge. The two articles are forks of each other; there’s no substantial difference. Bearian (talk) 20:42, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Per Nom, WeirdNAnnoyed, and Bearian. Article is a fork but agreeable to selective merge (ATD), if there is anything of value in this article, and consensus agrees. -- Otr500 (talk) 23:34, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect. I have the same sentiment as Bearian about it. --Brocade River Poems (She/They) 01:17, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
