Rename to Amhara offensive (2024-present?)

I think we should rename this article to "Amhara offensive 2024-present" as the actions part of this offensive extend into March 2025, and it is still ongoing as military acts are still being done by Fano and the ENDF counteroffensive has largely failed apart from re-capturing Gondar, I tried renaming the article (moving) as I had made the article but my edit was reverted by Bunnypranav who said it was not consistent with naming policy. This is why I am suggesting.

As of March 2025, Fano is still launching offensives, notably in North Wollo, and claims to have encircled Woldia city. This alone is enough to support a "present" label, and there is no indication of a ceasefire, de-escalation, or end to hostilities. Fano operations continued without a break from 2024 into 2025, showing one continuous campaign. RossoSPC (talk) 03:26, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just noting that if you want to get more people to opine on this, you should file an official Requested Move per instructions here. For the record, I am Neutral on this matter as of now, as I do not completely recollect the details of my move revert, and would like to not get involved in this topic. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 08:43, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
