Battle of Berbera → Attack on Berbera (1827) – Or perhaps Blockade of Berbera (1827). I think we should avoid the "Battle of" form for descriptive titles; too easy to take for a proper name. Berbera was also attacked in 1940. Srnec ( talk) 00:14, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
The blockade was already in place from 1825-1827 so "Blockade of Berbera 1827" seemingly minimizes it's duration. I believe Berbera Punitive Expedition makes more sense as the squadron was dispatched to collect restitution for the 1825 massacre. Quite disappointed Alexandermcnabb after having failed to make a serious case on the deletion page continues to peddle the 'false' information narrative. I agree that Battle of Berbera as a title can be changed! Cheers WanderingGeeljire ( talk) 22:58, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
In my Opinion it shouldn’t be called the Battle of Berbera since the Battle of Berbera occurred in 1940 and more people are familiar with the second battle. Instead it should be called the punitive expedition since it was a decssive British victory and the British were allowed to cross Berbera and were enabled to aces many goods. Yours.
