Revision history [back]

Hi Dick,

Thanks a lot for your detailed response!! Much appreciated. Now I have to try and massage/distill that into a statement that I could put in the Wikipedia article. Perhaps something like "The first mentioning in an important publication was by xxx in xxx". Which of the ones that you listed above would you recommend that I take for this purpose?

And do you recall any sort of meeting or discussion where people were pondering over the pros and cons of calling it WASH? Were there any particular people in favor of it and others against it?

I'll put the same post also on the SuSanA discussion forum here, as I find its archiving and search function better than on Knowledge Point: https://forum.susana.org/forum/categories/166-definitions-glossaries-dictionaries-mapping-tools/16379-who-invented-the-term-qwashq-for-water-sanitation-hygiene-was-it-wsscc-in-around-the-year-2000
