This article contains a translation of African mpox epidemic from en.wikipedia.

Idea: change the title of the article to '2023–2024 mpox epidemic' like on the English Wikipedia article

Hello! I am new to the Simple English Wikipedia, but I will try to stay inside the list of 1,000 words. I think that the English Wikipedia and other languages have done a smart thing by changing the title of their articles from 'African mpox epidemic' to '2023–2024 mpox epidemic'. This is because this is not the only mpox epidemic to happen in Africa, so it makes it clear which epidemic is being talked about. Also, the epidemic has been seen in countries outside of Africa like Taiwan, the Philippines, Sweden, and Pakistan, so it is not just an 'African' epidemic anymore.
