I knew wikipedia was going on a dangerous path, but I didn't know they had fallen so low. I'm talking about calling the entities involved in that affair as "belligerants" and also having the lack of tact of writing about "Casualties and losses" (in a non-ironic manner, I suppose).



I think belligerents is not too bad, but both of these stem from an iffy combat template being used, not someone writing for the article.


That's just Wikipedia's standard infobox template for military conflicts. I don't think there's an easy way to modify it.


That’s the thing, calling this a “military conflict” is already quite biased.
