Talk:war of independence

RFD discussion: June 2021–January 2022
A SOP fixed phrase. Compare war of extermination, war of revenge, war of religion, war of hegemony. Apart from online M-W I could find no lemmings. A THUB-based defence may conceivably be possible, but there are no translations yet and most will no doubt be of the form "war of independence" or "independence war". ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  10:10, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Not relevant insofar WT:THUB is concerned. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  14:26, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
 * It should be, that's a poor rule. DonnanZ (talk) 14:53, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I think the given definition could be improved. DonnanZ (talk) 08:41, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I've added a few translations, but these are trivial (the Russian one simply means "war for independence"), and as LBD, I find it rather unlikely any will be found that would support THUB. Still, I think it's a rather useful entry (a good deal more than, dare I say!). Abstain for now. Also, sounds somewhat entry-worthy to me. 2A02:2788:A4:205:3CC8:9F5F:53CB:FDCF 19:36, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, both the nominated entry and war of religion are fixed phrases (though I guess FA Cup is a fixed phrase as well in some sense of the term). War of religion may also appear to be more lexicalised and more entry-worthy because Wars of Religion is a specific historical term and somewhat similar to a proper noun. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  09:28, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, ’tis a significant word, not comparable to the other examples stated above. ·~   dictátor · mundꟾ  18:51, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
