I am aware of the dispute. I agree that the original is better. I think it should be redirected as I mentioned in the discussion. Please read my comment there.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 21:35, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding the Battlefield 2142 storyline article
I understand the need for factual details with Wikipedia, so technically it is wrong for me to call the BF2142 war "World War IV" - the only name DICE has given to the conflict so far is "Cold War".
However, as you said, I called it WWIV by making two assumptions: 1. Battlefield 2142 takes place in the same universe as Battlefield 2 2. The Conflict portrayed in Battlefield 2 is a "world war"
I justify my assumption with the idea that naming something a "world war" is subjective - there have been what, 9 "world wars" in all of history? Yet only the ones in the 20th century have been labeled so. Therefore, I would argue that the term "World War IV" is accurate when describing the "Cold War".

Postscript: Do you know anything about citing sources and stuff, like the little numbers after sentences etc? I want my article out of the "articles lacking sources" category, but the only thing I know how to do is link to the 2142 official site at the bottom, which is where I pretty much got all my info.
