Talk:Interstellar war

message: I've just been redirected from intergalactic war, to a page about interstellar war that has a section about interplanetary war. These are three different things and I think they deserve their own articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.27.143 (talk) 20:29, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Three seperate things 

message: The Ori War in Stargate SG1 actually is intergalactic, not interstellar.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.155.14.86 (talk) 13:50, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: In addition to the above

message: This article should be retitled "Interstellar war (fiction)", since it only covers fiction.Philcha 16:56, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Since interstellar war as far as we know only exists in fiction, this would be redundant. Noclevername 23:39, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I propose renaming this article to List of interstellar wars in fiction List of space wars in fiction. This article is basically already a list, covers interstellar, interplanetary, and intergalactic war, and Interstellar war (fiction) is too close to Space warfare in fiction. The name of this article will have to be changed anyway after the first real interstellar war breaks out. Regards. Braincricket (talk) 13:20, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Retitle as "Interstellar war (fiction)" 

message: I was about to add this:
:in the Soviet sphere, stories of this sort were generally banned, as the assumption that a capitalist society could successfully colonize space went against Party doctrine.
...when I realized I had no citation. What in fact was the situation on the other side of the globe during the cold war (and before, and after)? What's the state of such stories now?  ---Noclevername 23:37, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Western view, what about others?

message: This article only seems to cover interstellar war in popular culture. While it is true that we do not have contact with any extraterrestrial civilizations, let alone wage war with them, perhaps the article could speculate about such a conflict. Fusion7 17:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not a collection of unverified speculation. If we can cite other peoples' speculations I think that would be cool. Regards. Braincricket (talk) 13:38, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Diversify the topics 

message: To space war. Can also be interplanetary, or between natural satellites. J 1982 (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move 

message: I'm not sure how to make one, but it seems like Interstellar war, Interstellar Wars, GURPS Traveller: Interstellar Wars, and the redirect for First Interstellar War are confusing enough that a disambiguation page (probably with an "other uses" hatnote) would be appropriate. 165.23.203.13 (talk) 13:56, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Disambiguation? 

message: People do have utterly implausible ideas about the timescale of interstellar war.
: "Interstellar war is hard though. Frontlines, tactics and logistics are meaningless at these scales. It is also fought across time: decades will pass between firing a weapon and learning whether it hit or not."

replies: text:  "If there are an infinity of worlds, and if some worlds have sentient beings created by God, then wouldn’t these planets also need to be saved by the personification of God? By, well, alien Jesuses?"  But imagine the Smorpians may never have heard of love for enemies? --The Smorpians have won the battle (talk) 14:13, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
