[edit]@Nicknackrussian: "Battle of Culiacán" has not been used by the media at all. This isn't a "formal" war so we need to reword. I'm thinking of the following suggestions:
- Capture and release of Ovidio Guzmán López
- 18 October 2019 Culicán shootings
I'm using 1 May 2015 Jalisco attacks as an example. MX (✉ • ✎) 23:53, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- @MX: Just wanted to clarify there is some media that has used the term "Battle of Culiacán":
- "Mexico's Drug War: The Battle of Culiacán". Time.
- Castañeda, Jorge G. (23 October 2019). "Opinion: The Bigger Story Behind the Humiliating Release of El Chapo's Son". The New York Times.
The battle of Culiacán illustrates that the Sinaloa cartel is no weaker today than before the war on drugs began. [...] Days before the battle of Culiacán, 14 policemen were massacred in the town of Aguililla, in the state of Michoacán [...]
- That's not to say that this means that the name should necesarily remain as it is though, it's just to show that "Battle of Culiacán" is among the names used to describe the operation.--EdgarCabreraFariña (talk) 15:17, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think the Feds stated the name of the operation, if it had any. But it certainly triggered a city-wide battle or takeover. I think the current title serves well. Cheers, Rowan Forest (talk) 17:06, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- It seems a majority of sources are now referring to this as the "Battle of Culiacan", indeed it met the very definition of a pitched battle, with both sides choosing of their own free will to engage each other in the city.XavierGreen (talk) 15:46, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
