Move: Anti-Americanism → Anti-American sentiment

[edit]

The country-specific articles use "sentiment" rather than "-ism", e.g. Anti-American sentiment in Germany, etc. ―Emperor ÖSMAN IXXVMD (talk) 08:52, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The term is used much more broadly than conveyed by "sentiment". For example, according to the lead sentence, sentiments and positions including opposition to [...] its foreign policy. NightHeron (talk) 09:27, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Mild Oppose I say "mild" in that the suggestion isn't egregiously wrong, and if there were consensus for it that would seem fine to me. However, per NightHeron, the term "Anti-Americanism" is generally broader in usage and this seems to be reasonably well explained in the lead. Also noting that "Anti-American sentiment" is already a redirect to this article, so anyone looking for sentiments is going to find it. CAVincent (talk) 10:24, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: It literally says Anti-Americanism (also called anti-American sentiment or Americanophobia) is ....
(BTW, sorry for the late response.)

  • Support This would be in line with pretty much all other articles on xenophobia. I'll start a move discussion?

Anti-AmericanismAnti-American sentiment – This would be in line with almost all other articles on xenophobia, such as Anti-Albanian sentiment, Anti-African sentiment, Anti-Afghan sentiment, Anti-Armenian sentiment, Anti-Assyrian sentiment, Anti-Azerbaijani sentiment, and that is just those beginning with 'A'. It is very commonly used in academia, although I don't know whether it is marginally more common than the status quo.

For what's its worth, reiterating my mild oppose for the same reasons that I gave when this came up (above) last September. CAVincent (talk) 05:58, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
