Where to redirect the "Revolution"
Where should 2011 Libyan revolution lead? To 2011 Libyan civil war, or to a disambiguation page between 2011 Libyan civil war and an article on the social and political implications caused by the uprising?--Anders Feder (talk) 13:41, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

There is no doubt that the war in Libya resulted in a tremendous political and social changes, this however doesn't mean that we should call those changes a "revolution". There are several countries that experience such changes in a short time such as Lebanon and Spain during and after their civil wars, those changes are not put in a separate article (although that wouldn't be a bad idea), but calling them "Revolution" or redirecting the term "revolution" to them doesn't make much sense to me.--  R a f y  talk 12:09, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * "a tremendous political and social change" - that is in essence the definition of a revolution. The fact that a group of editors are stuck in old grudges over the naming of 2011 Libyan civil war doesn't really change the meaning of words in the English dictionary. As for Spain, which war are you referring to? Spanish Civil War and Spanish Revolution are in seperate articles. The Lebanese Civil War was different in that it was a sectarian conflict rather than a popular uprising - a lot of people died, but the power structures were not "turned upside down", as the literal meaning of 'revolution' implies.--Anders Feder (talk) 13:31, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I would prefer if you kept this on the actual topic and not talk about any of the editors personally. I'm not doing this because of "old grudges" as you call it.  I'm doing it because when searching for the page of 2011 Libyan revolution, a person would be looking for the page 2011 Libyan civil war NOT the Aftermath of that civil war.  There is no reason to assume ANYONE would search for revolution trying to get to that page.  It doesn't make logical sense given the definitions of the words involved also, please remember that this isn't a battle, so winning isn't important.  It is solely about what is likely to searched for and a redirect makes the most sense. Jeancey (talk) 21:43, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
