Russia investigation origins counter-narrative → Russia investigation origins conspiracy theory – The article is about a conspiracy theory, and that is how RS describe it. "Counter-narrative" is an unusual euphemism to use, and we are warned about using euphemisms. I know of only one RS using that term for this topic, while many RS use "conspiracy theory". Thus, the current title fails WP:COMMONNAME. It's time to improve the title. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 23:42, 7 May 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 01:56, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
