This page was moved to "Weakly-interacting massive particles" two months ago under the reason that there was a hyphen missing in the compound modifier "weakly interacting". However, no hyphen is needed in compound modifiers after adverbs that end in -ly. Someone with the high enough privileges, please move the page back to "Weakly interacting massive particles".
==name==
This presents an interesting puzzling for [[:naming conventions|naming conventions]]: if something like "WIMP" is ''almost always'' referred to as such, should it be listed under its acronym or under its full title? I have no very strong views about this case particular case, but I lean toward moving it to the full title. This particular page would be a perfect instance for that, because the acronym has two different uses; therefore, [[:WIMP|WIMP]] could redirect to those other two pages. --[[User:LMS|LMS]]
