A separate page should be created for the Battle of Rubizhne, as there has been very heavy and bloody fighting ongoing there that is distinct from general fighting for Sieverodonetsk. History Man1812 (talk) 19:24, 28 April 2022 (UTC)History_Man1812
The battle has ended with Russian forces seizing the industrial plant in the city. Video proof is provided in the source.

The initial letter of the title is only capitalised in running text if it would normally be capitalised. Per MOS:CAPS: Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization. In English, capitalization is primarily needed for proper names, acronyms, and for the first letter of a sentence. Wikipedia relies on sources to determine what is conventionally capitalized; only words and phrases that are consistently capitalized in a substantial majority of independent, reliable sources are capitalized in Wikipedia.
Per MOS:CAPS, the burden is to show that capitalisation is necessary in accordance with the criteria of MOS:CAPS. MOS:MILTERMS (part of MOS:CAPS) states: Accepted names of wars, battles, revolts, revolutions, rebellions, mutinies, skirmishes, fronts, raids, actions, operations, and so forth are capitalized if they are usually capitalized in sources ...
[emphasis added]. The advice at MOS:MILTERMS is substantially the same as the general advice. Looking at news sources here, there appear to be no sources that would lead to a conclusion that this is an accepted name (ie WP:COMMONNAME), let alone that it reaches the high threshold set by MOS:CAPS.

The page on Battle for Rubizhne clearly states that the battle was in fact won by the russians. Also additional information by ISW has also confirmed the same. Yet the map showing the russian advances has not been updates and Rubizhne is still being shown as a contested city. The map needs to be updated, as in the symbol for Rubizhne should be changed from "contested" to that of "Russian controlled" as of 17th May,2022 RioLiquid (talk) 03:44, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

In the "May" section of the article, there are the following two sentences which seems like they belong in the Battle of Popasna article rather than here: 'On 8 May, Ukrainian forces announced that they had withdrawn from Popasna, allowing Russia to fully occupy the town. In the fighting near Popasna, Russian forces reportedly damaged or destroyed every property in the town center. Seriy Hayday, the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, claimed that Russian forces were "removing [Popasna] from the map of Luhansk region".' I propose moving them there. --Tydeu (talk) 00:57, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

template. I would have liked to establish a consensus first per WP:ER, but there does not appear to be enough activity on this talk page to do so, and the change seems uncontroversial enough to not require it. --Tydeu (talk) 00:56, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
