Dabify. There seems to be a precedent to create disambiguation pages for ambiguous Korea-related titles, and it seems like a sensible one as they're plausible search terms and neither country should take precedence over the other. –

Disambig per the above although there is substantial duplication in the articles and so a merged single article at this title with subsections for the limited content relevant only to one of the present countries individually would probably be the best overall.

Comment. It could be useful in the sense that the person looking for it would type out in the search box to get there and in this age of internet culture the term triggered could mean "I don't like it" and it's not necessarily rude or childish but could be seen as a slang. It doesn't have to be used on a talk page. Anyone looking for
WP:IDONTLIKEIT could use
WP:TRIGGERED because it's much easier to type as it's just one word while the former has four and could at times be inconvenient if they forget to omit the punctuation (') in "I don't like it". Unless there is a better target, this should be kept per its usefulness in aiding search and could also be used on talk pages for the lighthearted editors that don't take offense by seeing this as a Wikipedia shortcut.

I’m confident that very few people, probably none at all, will search “WP:TRIGGERED” in the search bar while looking for a policy equivalent to
WP:IDLI. More likely, this shortcut will be used in the context of talk page discussions, with the effect of derailing them.

Delete per nom and per Endymion.12's response to Z0. Project space pages, including redirects (but excluding essays, I suppose), should be in Wikipedia's voice. This doesn't mean they can't be humorous or silly, but there's a difference between the sort of humorous shortcuts (and other content) we keep, which are usually friendly and self-deprecating, and the kind of childish "punching down" comedy associated with 4chan and the like from which this use of the word "triggered" is derived. (I disagree with Tavix's comment though: I think, regrettably, the use of "triggered" to mean something like "offended" or "upset," especially when implying that the person so described is too easily offended or upset, is common enough that
WP:RFD#D5 doesn't really apply. Separately, as Godsy notes,
Wikipedia:Signs of sock puppetry#Triggers of a sock puppet investigation and
Wikipedia:Content disclaimer are possible targets, but retargeting this after it's been linked to in several discussions would only cause confusion.) –

The target uses "This offends me" as an example of the kind of argument it describes, so I think it has something to do with offence at least. "Upset" isn't specifically mentioned but strikes me as being broadly similar to the types of argument that
WP:IDONTLIKEIT describes. It's probably not a particularly important distinction either way. –

Keep per Arms & Hearts comment immediately above, and add a hatnote pointing to the content disclaimer and possibly
Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not censored. In my experience people who use "Triggered" usually do so in a way that refers to someone else's objection as an "I don't like it argument", those who do suffer themselves more commonly use "trigger", "triggers" or "triggering" - although neither are exclusive which is why I'm suggesting the hatnote.

Delete per nominator. This isn't mainspace where we are trying to serve a wide variety of readers who use lots of different vocabulary for lots of different concepts.
WP:IDONTLIKEIT is extremely well-known among editors. It has literally tens of thousands of incoming links. There's no value in creating additional obscure slang shortcuts to it. At best that just wastes the time of everyone in the discussion as they try to figure out what policy or guideline you're trying to invoke, and at worse the new shortcut itself is more likely than the original to cause offense and degrade the tone of talk page discussion.
