"Aromanticism" implies some sort of ideology which seems... Problematic. Autisticml (talk) 22:43, 14 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not all -ism’s are ideological. Some are philosophical or scientific or social phenomena. While some Ismus are ideological, some of that is more recent than the root of -ism at large. Raladic (talk) 04:12, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Being aromantic isn't really any of those though, is it? It "just is" so to speak. Autisticml (talk) 16:07, 25 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
This is a bit of an old thread of conversation, but the suffix -ism is purely a nominalizer. True, it has uses for ideologies, but it is also used, as Wiktionary notes, "to form names of a tendency of behaviour, action, state, condition or opinion belonging to a class or group of persons [...]." This is the sense of it used in words such as aromanticism. Arayaz (talk) 17:47, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
That's my thought too. And there are also more than enough sources to justify keeping this article at its present title Historyday01 (talk) 21:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
