The current title is biased and unnecessary highlights the bombing. All other interventions in wikipedia are named either by their operation name (like nato bombing of bosnian serbs) or simply named like “intervention”. The good title would be “NATO military intervention in Yugoslavia/Kosovo (1999)” This is how it is referred to in the majority of works. 91.230.41.206 (talk) 15:09, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
You are welcome to start a rename discussion - but your proposed title sounds extremely euphemistic to me. The 'military intervention' took the form of an aerial bombing campaign, so why is it a problem to call it that? How is that biased? I ask that as someone who believed that the 'military intervention' was justified morally and relatively undestructive of life and property. You can't 'highlight the bombing', when the bombing campaign is all that happened at that time. Other roles, such as diplomacy and peacekeeping were earlier or later and are covered in other artioles. Pincrete (talk) 21:03, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm doubtful that "illegal" belongs in the first sentence of the lead in Wikivoice, particularly when the legality is phrased as an open question in the bottom of the lead, and we don't make definitive statements in the article body (c.f. WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY). There's a whole article on this exact sort of question. — Red-tailed hawk(nest)15:36, 12 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
