None of the articles called 'Russo-Ukrainian crisis'. No need for the DAB page. Olchug (talk) 16:16, 25 March 2022 (UTC) WP:STRIKESOCK. -- Tavix ^(talk) 19:50, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

• I am not sure what to do with this page, but I agree that none of this stuff is usually called 'Russo-Ukrainian crisis'. Provisional delete, unless anyone can think of a way to justify this page's existence, or perhaps move it to a different title. RGloucester — ☎ 16:55, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

• Comment What if to redirect "Russo-Ukrainian armed clashes (disambiguation)"? Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 17:30, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

This is not how DAB pages work. None of the linked pages are called 'Russo-Ukrainian armed clashes' by anyone. RGloucester — ☎ 18:10, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

• Delete, none of these items is called by that name. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 19:36, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
• Redirect to Ukrainian crisis, perhaps? It's a plausible search term, so should go somewhere. Neutrality^talk 20:21, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

  @Neutrality 'Russo-Ukrainian crisis' is a plausible search term, but this will continue to redirect to Russo-Ukrainian War as it is now. But this page should be deleted, none of these items except the Russo-Ukrainian War is called by that name.

• Note to closer: Both the proposer and Alvdal have been blocked for sockpuppetry. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Heanor. RGloucester — ☎ 16:54, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: In light of the sock revelations, consider whether a redirect is preferable to deletion.

• Delete per nom. As I've said several times lately on other Afd discussions, descriptive phrases are not proper subjects for dab pages. Also no redirect. The only articles that link to it are Russian crisis and Ukrainian crisis, which are equally bad. I'm going to nominate them for deletion as well, and with any luck this page will be an orphan they'll all be consigned to the trash heap. Clarityfiend (talk) 11:03, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

• Problem #1: Crisis links to International crisis, which states that it is "a widespread term without a single common definition."
• Problem #2: "To some, it involves 'a sequence of interactions between the governments of two or more sovereign states in severe conflict, short of actual war'", and most of the entries are war-related. (bolding all mine) Clarityfiend (talk) 21:14, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

So WP:COATRACK? Clarityfiend (talk) 21:54, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

• It's ok if you think this DAB page should be deleted, but nominating Russian crisis and Ukrainian crisis as well is kind of WP:POINTy. 2601:647:5800:1A1F:A1C1:3A98:A9E5:AD32 (talk) 21:03, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
