Shouldn't the article be titled "Looting during the Russian invasion of Ukraine"? "Sacking" to me seems like a word you would use to talk about something that happened in the year 1023, not 2023. The article itself never once uses the word "sack" or "sacking", only calling it "looting". HappyWith ( talk) 05:10, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved per consensus, with no prejudice against future proposals to remove the "by Russian forces" part ( closed by non-admin page mover) BegbertBiggs ( talk) 21:09, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
Sacking by Russian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine →
Looting by Russian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine – "Looting" is the word more used in sources to refer to the actions, and "sacking" is a very odd old-timey word to use for something that is happening in the 2020s.
