Ah, Wikipedia...  Some trust it, but I try to use authoritative sources.


The terms used in the NCAA 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 WBB rule book  (Rule 10) are "technical" (Section 12), "intentional" (Section 13), and "disqualifying" (Section 14) (and "personal" (Section 10))   Section 11 is about double & simultaneous fouls. Section 15 is about fighting.

A technical foul is a non-contact foul of a behavioral nature committed

by a player or bench personnel, such as misconduct, which is a behavior or

an act that is unbecoming to a fair, ethical and honorable individual. It is

administrative when there is a violation of the rules pertaining to, but not

limited to, the playing court/equipment requirements, rosters, benches, illegal

uniforms/numbers, scorebook, team delays, excessive timeouts and team

followers.

An intentional foul is a player-contact foul which, in the judgment of

the official, is:

a. Not a legitimate attempt to make a direct play on the ball;

b. Contact designed to negate an opponent's obvious advantageous position;

c. Contact away from the ball against an opponent who is clearly not

involved in the play, designed to stop the game clock or prevent it from

starting;

d. Contacting an opponent making a throw-in. This act shall also serve as a

team warning for reaching through the boundary.

e. Excessive, hard and/or unnecessary contact against an opponent; and

f. Illegal contact caused by the swinging of an elbow that is deemed

excessive or unnecessary.

a-c seem to have "intent".  d-f do not seem to have "intent".

A disqualifying foul is any flagrant misconduct by any player or bench

personnel. (1) When it is a contact foul, the contact is judged to be violent and/

or severe. (2) When it is a noncontact foul, the unacceptable conduct of the

individual is judged to be persistent, extreme, vulgar and/or abusive.

FIBA seems to have Personal, Technical, Unsportsmanlike, Disqualifying, and Fighting.

Everyone including our PA announcer and our scorekeeper seems to have been confused by the multiple changes in terminology over the last few years. NCAA MBB and WBB first changed to follow NBA terminology, then WBB changed again to follow FIBA, but the men didn't. Personally I think the change to use FIBA terminology was a bad idea.
