2015 Japanese military legislation → Legislation for Peace and Security – This name is used in official Japanese government documents/presentations released to the public. Ominae (talk) 03:24, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

• Inclined to oppose due to lower recognizability. Is the proposed title in common use? (It's a redlink at this point.) It also seems like a euphemism. Dekimasuよ! 05:31, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
• Oppose due to recognizability. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:06, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Not a vote on this matter. I'm updating to say that I forgot to mention the name is given out in official Japanese government documentation in English by the MOFA/MOD. Ominae (talk) 04:24, 14 February 2019 (UTC)

Survival-threatening situation vs. existential crisis situation

@RGloucester From my understanding, secondary sources more often seem to translate 存立危機事態 to a "survival-threatening situation" than to "existential crisis situation". Which one do you think is more accurate? The Account 2 (talk) 09:35, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

'存立' means 'existence', not survival. You need to look at good, academic sources. See for example this article, which offers a great explanation. Yours, &c. RGloucester — ☎ 09:37, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

Thanks! Yeah looking at it, 存立 clearly refers to existence rather than survival, which would be 生存. The Account 2 (talk) 09:41, 27 November 2025 (UTC)
