The Battle of Donbas will be over when the Battle of Bakhmut is over

The last ongoing battle that is a part of the Battle of Donbas is the ongoing Battle of Bakhmut. When the fighting in/around Bakhmut is over, we can close this article. PilotSheng (talk) 15:53, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Isn’t Avdiivka in the Donbas? That battle's still ongoing. HappyWith (talk) 20:27, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Russian forces Haven't captured Bakhmut

The Russian offensive (April 2022 - May 2023) section is wrong and is overlapping the Ukrainian Fall counteroffensives (September-November 2022). DitorWiki (talk) 04:10, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Donbas (2022–present) → Battle of Donbas

Battle of Donbas → Battle of Donbas (disambiguation)

We do not have an article with the name, for example, Battle of Donbas (2006). The Wikipedia article on the 2003–2011 armed conflict in Iraq is called the Iraq War, not the Iraq War (2003–2011), although the conflict is still ongoing. Parham wiki (talk) 20:10, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

~~Support~~ Per
WP:AT, concision is preferred over unnecessary precision. Cinderella157 (talk) 00:48, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply

Oppose I missed Battle for the Donbas (1919). It does need disambiguation of one or both. One would need to be a primary topic and there is nothing convincing (nothing at all) as to which that would be. Cinderella157 (talk) 23:23, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is absolutely not "unnecessary precision". Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 22:19, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- Support Same for
  War in Donbas (2014–2022)
  . This is just a battle for a region. The War from 2014 to 2022 wasn’t just a battle, it was a war.

Comment: Isn’t Battle for the Donbas (1919) exactly this? HappyWith (talk) 21:59, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Cinderella157: I lost it too. Close the discussion (I don't know how it closes). Thank you and everyone else. Parham wiki (talk) 23:42, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose not only is this article unnecessary for overlapping with already existing articles, now we also want to make its title confusing with other articles? I seriously doubt all of the readers are going to recognize the small different nuance in meaning between "Battle of Donbas" and "War in Donbas" and know which article is for what based in their titles. I also imagine many will see one of the two and believe that it covers the whole war since 2014. Also per the comment above there's a third article with a similar article. Temporal disambiguation is very necessary here. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 22:19, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
