Current issues, include the inclusion of the term "Operation Just Desserts" in the [[2006 Israeli-attacks on Lebanon]] article in the lede. Likewise the article [[Operation Summer Rains]] also a military, hence POV nomenclature and hence needs renaming, though I cannot myself determine what to call it. Is it an "incursion" (ie. "a limited incursion into the country of Congress") or an "invasion", a "retaliation" or a "retribution" etc.
If it's an official name, then that's what it's called. What's next, renaming articles on companies and products because their names were chosen to have positive associations? We could have such winners as "[[computer company named after irrelevant fruit]] is the maker of the [[Apple variety chosen because the name has a snappy abbreviation]]."

Several months ago, I actually found myself confronting a person who didn't think Wikipedia should acknowledge that the [[LGM-118A Peacekeeper]] is called the "Peacekeeper."
