This article, titled "M23 rebellion", hardly spends a word on the origins, development and objectives of the rebellion. Instead, it limits itself to keeping track of the rebellion's progresses and setbacks. A lot more work is needed on the "Background" section, with subsections for whatever different political and other factors led to the rebellion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:980:540C:1:216:76FF:FE91:2064 ( talk) 20:51, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
I think that - as the situation in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo is ongoing - we can be in danger of misleading readers by using very recently reported activity. It's difficult to check on the accuracy of news reports, and , bearing in mind that this is an encyclopedia and not a rolling news service - it may be wise to leave a two month gap between events (supposedly) taking place and writing them into the article. Any comments? (don't be shy - but don't be rude either) Francis Hannaway ( talk) 17:16, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
There seems to be no sources mentioning that Zimbabwe is involved in the conflict. Kspnece92 ( talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.121.6.31 ( talk) 21:03, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

The title right now is kinda rough. When 2013 comes, it will become worse. Can we please change the title to M23 rebellion or M23 insurgency? (similar to Lord's Resistance Army insurgency).-- FutureTrillionaire ( talk) 15:04, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
I get the sense that rebellion is the more common term. A Google News search seems to confirm this.

OK, so M23 = March 23 Movement. This depends on how many readers have heard of the March 23 Movement, and on top of that, how clear is abbreviating it to 'M23'. Anthony Appleyard ( talk) 23:25, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
Why not just merge it with the Kivu Conflict. No action in 3 months and the ceasefire seems to be holding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.255.18.206 ( talk) 14:56, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
