Academic year → School break – The information in this article is almost exclusively about school breaks; the lead is the only part of this article that uses academic years as the primary topic, the rest of this article is about school breaks and is written as if school breaks were the primary topic of this article instead of academic years.

Oppose. No need for a move. What is a "school break" in any case? Do you mean a "school holiday"? Or a "university vacation"? Given "school" only usually refers to higher education in America. Much better to keep it at the current title, which is understandable to everyone. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:29, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @Necrothesp: Would academic break or academic holiday work? – Treetoes023 (talk) 14:45, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - It's fine as it is. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:48, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Necrothesp: How? This article hardly mentions academic years, it only talks about academic breaks. An article about academic years should look something like the academic term article, now that I mention it, I'm not even sure why they're separate articles. Academic year should redirect to academic term (or the other way around), and academic breaks/holidays should have its own article. The current title is misleading. – Treetoes023 (talk) 16:03, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
