Move from "Battle of Aden" to "Battle of Aden Airport" per WP:COMMONNAME 199.249.227.156 ( talk) 11:49, 20 March 2015 (UTC) reply

Oppose: The battle included other areas in Aden, and the airport itself is properly known as Aden International Airport. - Kudzu1 ( talk) 15:51, 20 March 2015 (UTC) On reconsideration, I'll support per Battle of Donetsk Airport. - Kudzu1 ( talk) 16:24, 20 March 2015 (UTC) reply

• I somehow disagree with the new title. Not sure what made Kudzu reconsider, but the First Battle of Donetsk Airport and Second Battle of Donetsk Airport were both almost entirely limited to Donetsk's international airport, and the air raid(s) on Hadi's palace should be taken into consideration. Why are the raids described as an "aftermath" of the battle? Are there sources backing this up? Fitzcarmalan ( talk) 21:07, 20 March 2015 (UTC) reply

I think the nominator has a good point wrt WP:COMMON. As for the airstrikes, the AP said they appeared to be retaliatory in nature, and no source indicates they were part of the same operation. The special forces that attacked the airport from their base right next door (seriously, just a glance at Google Maps went a long way toward prompting my reconsideration) don't control an airfield or combat aircraft. All that being said, WP:BRD is certainly an option of which you can avail yourself. - Kudzu1 ( talk) 21:26, 20 March 2015 (UTC) reply
