I suggested title change to "walkout" rather than "strike". Please see these news sources.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]Y-S.Ko (talk) 03:24, 18 March 2024 (UTC) --Y-S.Ko (talk) 03:30, 18 March 2024 (UTC) (edited more)[reply]
Please format to the Requested move discussion, WP:RSPM, setup to help gain a wider consensus. In response to your sources:
"South Korea doctors’ strike: government moves to suspend thousands of medical licences" - The Guardian [8]
"South Korea deploys military, public doctors to strike-hit hospitals" Reuters [9]
"S Korea deploys military reinforcements to hospitals hit by doctors strike" - Al Jazerra [10]
"Why have 10,000 junior doctors in South Korea resigned in protest against the government?" Euronews [11], in body "The striking doctors-in-training claim that most of the additionally recruited medical students would also likely try to work in high-paying, popular professions like plastic surgery and dermatology, like current medical students."
When I searched on Google for either strike or walkout, the results returned overlapped each other, and it would boil down to which is either WP:COMMONNAME and/or WP:NDESC. I think "strike" itself is understandable, and it is not just a simple "walkout" from one's job since it couples with the usage of mass resignations. Are the doctors expecting all to be hired back after the labor action ends? – robertsky (talk) 07:17, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@– robertsky: Then, how about "mass resignations" as a title? 1. It is used in news sources such as [12], [13], [14], [15], 2. "[S]ince it couples with the usage of mass resignations", then the most non-judgmental descriptive titles should be "mass resignations", rather than "strike" or "walkout". --Y-S.Ko (talk) 19:41, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strike is non judgemental enough. – robertsky (talk) 20:39, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No. The government said "the argument made by some that the trainee doctors’ collective action is not a strike".[16] "Mass designation" is a better term. --Y-S.Ko (talk) 00:34, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We don't sing to the tune to the government on Wikipedia (see WP:OFFICIAL), especially when it has been reported otherwise. Once again, open a Requested move discussion so that other editors may be notified to join in here. – robertsky (talk) 08:47, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for clarifying your view.--Y-S.Ko (talk) 08:18, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
