Talk:Cold war (general term)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If you must combine these articles, they need to be under Cold War, not Cold war, as The Cold War was a specific war and hence a proper noun. --nknight 13:00 Jan 17, 2003 (UTC)


I don't think the Taiwan issue qualifies as a cold war. It's more of an unresolved civil war. --Jiang 20:44 21 Jul 2003 (UTC)


All linking articles about the Cold War have now been redirected to Cold War. --GCarty 17:30 2 Nov 2003 (UTC)


Regarding moving this to Wiktionary, essentially it's the equivalent of what many folks have wanted to do -- merge this with Cold War (proper) and explain the concept of a Cold war within that article. Jiang is correct re: China vs. Taiwan, is not referred to as a cold war. It's a continuation of civil war that goes back to the early part of the 20th century. Greece and Turkey were seen as critical countries during the Cold War because the USSR would see it as a NATO weakness if there was a conflict, but as such, they are not referred to widely as being involved in a cold war. That said, there is no real reason for this article to exist alone. It should be merged with the Cold War article. Fuzheado 07:39, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)
