Sasebo schoolgirl murder → 2014 Sasebo schoolgirl murder – or or  or. The current title is ambiguous with, a similar event in 2004 that has a much larger pageview count. Please note that an RM discussion is currently open at Talk:Sasebo slashing. Although this article describes the incident as a murder, it does not mention a conviction for the crime of murder, so it is not really clear whether the use of the word is appropriate. The primary intent of this RM is disambiguation. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:44, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Move to Murder of Aiwa Matsuo. The victim's name is well-enough known. BD2412  T 00:42, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
 * The most recent source that I found cited in the article is from 16 February 2015, and it still uses the word "alleged" to describe the incident. It also says "In January, prosecutors sent her to a family court to seek a decision on whether the case involving a minor merited criminal prosecution." It is therefore not clear that there has been a murder conviction. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 02:00, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
