On 9 September 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved from List of journalists murdered in Ukraine to List of journalists killed in Ukraine. The result of the discussion was moved.

Article name[edit]

the article says "A list of journalists (listed chronologically since 1991) containing the names of the mass media workers who became victims of murders or died as a result of the terrorist attacks and military activities on the territory of Ukraine" and includes indeed journalists who were KIA, not murdered. It should be either moved to "List of journalists killed in Ukraine" or split.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:28, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of journalists murdered in Ukraine → List of journalists killed in Ukraine – for consistency with other articles (compare Special:PrefixIndex/List of journalists murdered and Special:PrefixIndex/List of journalists killed).

Support per the nom's consistency argument, which seems pretty strong: this is apparently the only such list that uses "murdered". Additionally, there don't seem to have been murder convictions in the majority of the listed cases, which means that we should generally avoid describing them as murders (see WP:BLPCRIME and WP:DEATHS).
