"Bromelin"?[]

This may be how the real bromelain is actually spelt, although the script of "Silent Enemy" consistently spells it "bromelin". So, should this page be moved to that namespace, or does this article simply require a bginfo note regarding the scripted spelling? --Defiant (talk) 13:09, October 10, 2015 (UTC)

The latter was done for "Hygienist/hygenist". --LauraCC (talk) 20:28, November 23, 2016 (UTC)
I think the litmus test ought to be whether something is clearly a case of a misspelling, or if it's possible that the writers actually meant to invent a new substance. The background note confirms the former, so let's not postulate the existence of some other allergen in pineapple, but just correct the mistake. That the script spelled it differently is still worthy of a background note, of course. -- Capricorn (talk) 06:21, November 26, 2016 (UTC)
