Semi-protected edit request on 4 April 2024 - Paraguayan army strength

[edit]

The Paraguayan army strength is wrong. The 300,000 mentioned in the article should be the total Paraguayan death toll. The mentioned source supports my claim and probably got misread.

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 11:39, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Everyone in the talk section agrees that War of the Triple Alliance is the common english name

[edit]

And there's evidence the prior move was brigaded by other languages. Paraguayan War is the COMMON in Brazil, not in English which goes with the Argentinian and Uraguayan name.

War's having different names in regions is pretty common. At the time it happened Britain and Belgium called WW1 'The Great War', France 'The World War', and US 'The European War'. Use the commons for English. TheBrodsterBoy (talk) 20:12, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly it is not. There is nothing like a consensus. This was gone into thoroughly. Still, since it wouldn't do any harm to have the principles set down, which I shall do in a day or two.Ttocserp 20:38, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Based on the move log, this has been contested multiple times. If you wish to gain a consensus, please see WP:RSPM and start a Requested move discussion. – robertsky (talk) 20:48, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
