Requested move 26 June 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. The proposed title would narrow the scope of the article. Hazing is an initiation ritual for new recruits which may involve bullying, while bullying in the military may continue years after initiation. wbm1058 (talk) 16:09, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]



Bullying in the militaryHazing in the military – Hazing is more commonly used in this context; perhaps there's a difference in British vs American English here, alas, most works are using hazing. GBooks count is 2:1, as is GScholar. Two dedicated books on this topic use hazing, not bullying: Kirsten M. Keller; Miriam Matthews; Kimberly Curry Hall (12 August 2015). Hazing in the U.S. Armed Forces: Recommendations for Hazing Prevention Policy and Practice. Rand Corporation. pp. 49–. ISBN 978-0-8330-9105-5. {{cite book}}: Unknown parameter |coauthors= ignored (|author= suggested) (help), Oliver Thompson (December 2016). Hazing in the Military: Persistence, Policies, Recommendations. Nova Science Publishers, Incorporated. ISBN 978-1-5361-0081-5.. I guess there is also the option to use both terms, as in bullying and hazing in the military (consider [1], [2]). Thoughts on the best title?

This meaningless WP:VOTE should be disregarded. Zarcadia (talk) 18:22, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
hazing is the correct term this page would probably be better of if it was deleted entirely as it doesn't really have any information עם ישראל חי (talk) 19:49, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Probably a WP:ENGVAR issue. "Hazing" is not a common word in British English. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:55, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Hazing is an "initiation ceremony" (according to it's own article) so doesn't cover the scope of this article. Zarcadia (talk) 18:22, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Opposte per Necrothesp and due to the fact that it would limit the scope of this article. Those two books are both written from an American standpoint and specifically refer to the US military, so it's clear why they would use the term "hazing". It desperately needs more worldwide information, and I can already see how this could shift the article's tone away from the concept and closer towards random examples.
