Temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine → Occupied territories of Ukraine – No way to know that the occupation will indeed be temporary. I get that "Temporarily" is included in the Ukrainian govt name, but it is a WP:POVTITLE, and the usage in sources is not common enough to make it an acceptable WP:POVNAME. ― Tartan357 Talk 02:14, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Support. The "temporary" label appears to be propaganda from the Ukrainian government and using it as the title seems to violate WP:NEUTRAL. Rreagan007 (talk) 02:45, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support – Per WP:CONCISE. "Temporary" is an additional, unnecessary label. Crimea and the Donbass have been occupied by Russia for 8 years now. That's not what I would call "temporary", and Russia could very well retain control of those territories for much longer. I would point to German occupation of France and Occupation of Poland (1939–1945) as other examples. If we change the title, it should be changed to "Russian occupation of Ukraine".

  • Support per WP:CRYSTAL. We have no way of knowing how long these territories will be occupied for. Egsan Bacon (talk) 06:16, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Temporarily occupied and uncontrolled territories of Ukraine (2014-present), which should have been closed as delete if all participating socks were called on time. The only raison d'etre for this article is that this is a notion which only exists as Ukrainian government propaganda. If you move the article, it becomes abundantly clear that it does not contain any material which is not already explained in much more detail in other existing articles.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:29, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
    Since the war started, I propose to stop the discussion and see what the outcome of the war would be, and how it would affect the scope of the article.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:00, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support Neutral. All occupied territories are by definition temporary. If it is permanent, then it would be regarded as annexed, not occupied. I don't think the Ukrainian government (and everyone else) regards them as annexed, just occupied. The "temporarily" is superfluous. But there is also the problem with "of Ukraine" in the title, as it is a bit ambiguous as it can be interpreted as "by Ukraine" rather than "in Ukraine". Walrasiad (talk) 17:26, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Oppose I cannot disagree with the concerns above on the use of the word "temporarily" in this title. Unfortunately, the new title is not an improvement. The current title is NPOV in the sense that it is formally about the designation in Ukrainian law, and the Ukrainian law currently uses a term translated to English as "temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine" to define it. If we are renaming the article, we may be adjusting the scope. The correct scope (assuming it is not "how the Ukrainian government refers to the region) probably should be "Donetsk and Luhansk". ... my first vote would be to merge (well, "merge" as not much of the content would be moved) to 2021–2022 Russo-Ukrainian crisis or some other article. Unless you are actually concerned with how the Ukrainians refer to the region, this isn't the search term or the topic you want ... User:力 (powera, π, ν) 02:00, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
Hm. I see your point. If this article is indeed limited to official designations, then maybe this worth a rethink. Switching to "Neutral" for now. Walrasiad (talk) 04:00, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
Which is precisely my point, but better made.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:04, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
User:力, this article not only about Donetsk and Luhansk but also about Crimea. But as I wrote below it is better to merge it into Russian-occupied territories and merge Occupied territories of Georgia thereinto too. Three article on one topic is too much. --Thesmp (talk) 13:21, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support - nothing suggests that the occupation is "temporary". The territories are plainly occupied. Paul Vaurie (talk) 03:18, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Merge into Russian-occupied territories. Occupied territories of Georgia merge thereinto too. --Thesmp (talk) 13:19, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support, to support the WP:CRITERION of conciseness. Contrary to the “Ukrainian propaganda” notion, several resolutions passed by the UN General Assembly refer to the status of Crimea as an “attempted annexation” and “temporary occupation,” and consequently it is used in operations and reporting by UN agencies, for example supporting refugees and human rights. The name is used because it is a WP:COMMONNAME, and not because we have made some prediction via our WP:CRYSTALBALL. (Anyway something considered non-permanent is called temporary, as of right now.) —Michael Z. 22:41, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
    Michael, perhaps it's just me being tired, but your comment seem contradictory. You first say you support the suggestion to stop using "Temporarily occupied territories" but your explanation says it is the preferred. Would you please clarify? (Again, apologies if it's just me misunderstanding). Jeppiz (talk) 23:31, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
    User:Jeppiz, I support the proposal because it’s more concise and still accurate. I am also commenting about some other reasoning above that I don’t fully agree with, and anyway to round out the information here about the name’s usage. —Michael Z. 03:47, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support - This title isn't from a neutral prospective. Valkuay (talk) 23:51, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Support - How do we know that the occupation is temporary? As much as we want it to be, it isn't a neutral title. Seungri400 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:49, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

December 2016

Hello everyone. I am author of this article. Please note, that some of my edits look like -70 000 characters. It is because 1. I changed position of two tables and 2. optimised those two tables. Tables position change looks like removal for system. However position change within article means that content is the same, nothing is changed but size is super different because I used different programmes to create wikitables and code used is different in size. Those changes with removal of characters did not cause change or removal of content. Note this when undoing my edits because two versions of article are the same. Thanks.

Also in case dispute regarding article releance will be raised, I vote to keep it in a same manner as article Occupied territories of Georgia. List of Temporarily occupied and uncontrolled territories cannot be merged with other related articles since it provides not sequence but names of occupied regions and settlements (not mentioned anywhere else on Wikipedia) which deserves to be a separate article. Thank you. USER: Жовтневе багаття ( talk) 05:32, 27 December 2016‎ (UTC)
