– WP:NATURALDIS. Disambiguation is fundamentally necessary to the identification of these wars. They are described as distinct Ottoman–Habsburg wars within a series of wars, not periods of time within a single war (e.g., contrast with History of Canada (1960–1981) as mentioned at WP:NCDURATION). I suspect there are many other generically-named wars (and other subjects) that might benefit from similar treatment. I am also tempted to suggest lowercasing of "War", but that might be a distraction. — BarrelProof (talk) 19:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Lowercase war per [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Ottoman-Habsburg+War&year_start=1990&year_end=2022&corpus=en&smoothing=3&case_insensitive=true usage stats], even if it's a distraction. Neutral on which disambig style to use, since it's not uncommon to call separate things the same name and use parenthetic disambig. Dicklyon (talk) 00:44, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Another issue is whether it should be "Habsburg–Ottoman" (i.e., alphabetical order), as at Habsburg–Ottoman War. —Srnec (talk) 01:12, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- :Yes, let's do that. It's conventional on WP, and [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Ottoman-Habsburg+War%2CHabsburg-Ottoman+War&year_start=1990&year_end=2022&corpus=en&smoothing=5&case_insensitive=true somewhat more common in sources] to put Habsburg first. And let's fix that disambig page capitalization while we're at it. Dicklyon (talk) 03:04, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
