merge with social defence[edit]

Both articles describe the same concept, but from two perspectives. This article "Civilian-based defense" uses Anglo-american terminology, while "social defense" is a verbatim translation of the continental European - eg German - name. I suggest to merge the non-duplicate content from "social defense" into this article and then it a redirect. --h-stt !? 17:42, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That seems like a reasonable proposal, so perhaps merge to Civilian-based defense but base the article primarily on the content/structure at Social defence. The problem with the current Civilian-based defense page is that it seems primarily an exposition of Gene Sharp's views. Klbrain (talk) 09:40, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support Klbrain's recommendation. Daask (talk) 17:32, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 13:49, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Content[edit]

To some idea or concept be at Wikipedia it needs wide acceptance and notability since this is not a soapbox or advocacy forum or a promotional tool. Not about someone rising question or support something, I removed some arguing and also one claim about Lithuania, to something being recognized also need wide recognition to it is really like that. For example Lithuania has a total defense concept with strong military pillar not just civilian based defense or so. I understand that some people wish so much for their concepts to be approved or implemented, but Wikipedia is not a place for advocacy of any kind. 109.93.55.169 (talk) 04:09, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
