Talk:2010 Japan–South Korea cyber conflict

Framing of article
"Cyberwarfare" doesn't seem like the right word; that word is usually limited to state actors. toobigtokale (talk) 19:43, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

2010 Japan–South Korea cyberwarfare → 2010 Japan–South Korea cyber conflict – Not sure what a good new title would be. I don't know if there's an appropriate WP:COMMONNAME; upon some quick searching it's hard to even find anything in English about this topic. But "cyberwarfare" seems like strong wording at the very least; I feel like that term is usually reserved for state actors, and this was all private citizens. The targets may have been part of the state, but if I DDOS'd the white house homepage right now I don't think people would call it "cyberwarfare". toobigtokale (talk) 19:49, 5 October 2023 (UTC) — Relisting.

 * Oppose switching the countries around, they should be in alphabetical order. Neutral on cyberwarfare/cyber conflict. — Material  Works  21:31, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh oops you're right; my mistake toobigtokale (talk) 12:59, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: I have now fixed the request to have "Japan–South Korea" rather than "South Korea–Japan", since you say that part is a mistake. Relisting for input about the "cyberwarfare" part. SilverLocust 💬 03:13, 23 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Support does not appear to fit the definition of Cyberwarfare, but as mentioned at the article, the term has a very loose definition Yoblyblob (talk) 14:04, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Support per nominator. Especially with countries with fraught histories, we should reserve the word war for topics where it is clearly described as such by RS. --Tserton (talk) 20:34, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
