Changes

Note that I briefly tried 'article' (singular to save letters). I also considered 'paper', which is shorter but not quite right. Likewise study, etc. Also digest (which was a close second), review, bulletin, and pub (which was just too ambiguous). The problem with article is that although it looks good for article URLS, the landing URL is then www.edegan.com/article. A collection word is better. And journal appeals to the academic in me.
To do this you have to takes about 10 minutes (see https://wordpress.org/support/article/moving-wordpress/). You have to:
#Make the change in Wordpress through wp-admin (you have to do this first!) - Set both the Wordpress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) fields
#Move the directory to the new name (at this point I could access www.edegan.com/article)
#Fix the permalinks (update the .htaccess file)
#Fix the images etc. (they seemed fine... ok, when I edited a page a few went missing otherwise there weren't any issues)
#(Create and ) load up a new icon image (it is set under Appearance -> Customize -> Site Identity)
#Run any updates etc.
#Reconnect Google site kit
