Crossarchus → Cusimanse – This alongside the "kusimanse" spelling seems to be by far the common name, the other common names listed on this page have other common meanings with dwarf mongoose most times meaning an entirely different species and "mangue" having many references. Cusimanse with a C seems to be the more common spelling as per Google Ngrams. Maykii (talk) 02:08, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. This page is about the genus, not about a common name. – BhagyaMani (talk) 07:15, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oppose per BhagyaMani. In addition, the common kusimanse is often just called kusimanse (regardless of "k" or "c" spelling), so could possibly be the more correct article for the proposed destination. - UtherSRG (talk) 10:51, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oppose Current title is more precise. "Cusimanse" alone more often refers to the common cusimanse rather than the genus as a whole as far as I have found. Crossarchus is more common than cusimanse or kusimanse on Ngrams. Plantdrew (talk)
