Oh god, do NOT redirect it like that EVER, also it needs discussion in order to be renamed. It is move protected for a reason. Please do not do this again.

bro it's pretty apparent to anyone with a basic knowledge of poli-sci it's a revolution... the talk page had a consensus among its knowledgeable contributors

It is NOT for you to decide that. It is move protected for a reason, even if it wasn't you NEVER copy and paste move, instead request a move through the proper channels

It's clear that there is no consensus because at least two people have reverted you and at least three have objected to the move. Consensus isn't defined as 'only those people that agree with you', you can't summarily discard the opinions of others like that. And as I mentioned above, even if there was consensus to rename the article, the method you used is wrong because it doesn't copy any of the relevant metadata like revision history or talk. If you want to request a move, you need to use the
WP:RM process.

just chill bro, consensus by people with an understanding of poli-sci, the opposition are a bunch of 12 year old self-righteous, know-it-all wiki'ers.
I actually stated definitions of a civil war from known and respected people in the field, I am not 12 and I have taken several poli sci classes, including one on internal armed conflict in developing countries. No where in there did it state your definition of a civil war vs a revolution. If you really want to move it, put a move request in, as that is the proper way to go about things.

Some people could also see it as an offensive gesture with you calling them children. In that regard I should remind you on Wikipedia's rule on civility.
