March 2010 Israel–Gaza clashes → 2010 incursion into Gaza – The incident was quite clearly a military incursion into Gaza, not mere "clashes", making the current WP:NCE title a complete misnomer, unnatural, inaccurate, and unrecognizable. "Clashes" is a term typically reserved for minor scuffles or exchanges, sometimes involving unarmed protestors - events far removed from the use of tanks and helicopters. With the new title, the month is not needed, as it appears to have been the only such incursion during that year.

Oppose. The term "incursion" may not provide a neutral point of view as it inherently identifies one party as the aggressor. Therefore, it may not be the most accurate or unbiased descriptor for the situation at hand. Marokwitz (talk) 07:41, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Marokwitz: If this is not the best descriptor, please suggest your own, better descriptive word for "Israeli troops backed by tanks, armored vehicles, helicopters, and mortars entered Gaza". Iskandar323 (talk) 11:13, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm ok with the existing name. The described violence was bilateral and not limited to Gaza ('rockets continued to be fired at Israeli cities and towns') Marokwitz (talk) 13:06, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Current title is already in WP:NPOVTITLE as both sides used military responses for investigation and "clashing".Jerium (talk) 18:20, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
