Renaming to "Economic consequences..."

If nobody significantly objects to this, I will be renaming this article to "Economic consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine". Impact is a proscribed, jargon word that—when used figuratively—means "strong/violent/marked effect". Firstly, there's no one effect of the invasion, but more importantly, saying "economic strong/violent/marked effect" is a leading statement and precludes the need for the article body itself.

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 9 September 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

My request is that the first paragraph be changed accordingly:

The economic impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in late February 2022, in the days after Russia recognized two breakaway Ukrainian republics and launched an invasion of Ukraine. The subsequent economic sanctions have targeted large parts of the Russian economy, Russian oligarchs, and members of the Russian government.[1][2][3][4] Consequently, a wave of protests and strikes occurred across Europe against the rising cost of living.

"Russia responded in kind" was replaced with "Consequently". The reason is that the following statement does not appear to be directly caused by Russia, or if it is, it should be further elaborated upon. STRFabs (talk) 04:36, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe I'm missing something in my skim through, but it's weird neither that nor the subsequent sentence seem to be covered in the body of the article. Alpha3031 (t • c) 05:25, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This change appears to have already been made before this edit request was made, maybe the requesting editor was looking at an old diff? - Adolphus79 (talk) 02:19, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What about effects on Ukraine?

The name doesn't fit the content. This article describes the effects of the invasion on Russia (as if it was written by a disgruntled Russian emigré), yet the name may lead one to beleive that it should describe the effects on both sides. 46.242.13.107 (talk) 12:09, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
