- api_or_ipa 12y agoI think by saying anything more reductionist will lead to inappropriate conclusions without reading the abstract. It's an interesting article although perhaps a little early to conclude that Triclosan is bad.
- greenyoda 12y agoThere are already a number of other concerns about the negative effects of triclosan. See, for example, sections 5, 6 and 7 of the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triclosan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triclosan To address the original question: HN guidelines specifically ask us not to change the original title of the article: "please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait."

- gus_massa 12y agoI think that the title is clear enough, and the abstract is very legible. Do you have any better suggestions? Perhaps you can write a comment with more details, highlighting why this is important. (Note: I'm against the literal application of this guideline.)
