WARNING: ACTIVE COMMUNITY SANCTIONS

The article Jihadist insurgency in Niger, along with other pages relating to the Syrian Civil War and ISIL, is designated by the community as a contentious topic. The current restrictions are:

Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period)

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be sanctioned.

Remedy instructions and exemptions

Enforcement procedures:

Violations of any restrictions (excluding 1RR/reverting violations) and other conduct issues should be reported to the administrators' incidents noticeboard. Violations of revert restrictions should be reported to the administrators' edit warring noticeboard.
Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.

With respect to any reverting restrictions:

Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as clear vandalism.
Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.
Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!

On 2 February 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved from 2021 Niger attacks to Jihadist insurgency in Niger. The result of the discussion was moved.

Title

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article's title should be changed in to "2021 Niger attacks", as deadly attacks in the country are increasing also in other regions. Yesterday, at least 60 people were killed at three villages in the Tahoua region. Gianluigi02 (talk) 15:22, 22 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Creation of article of some of the attacks

Latest comment: 2 years ago4 comments3 people in discussion

I think al least 3 of the attacks on this list deserve their own article, the January 2021 Tillabéri attack(105 dead), March 16 Bani-Bangou ambush(58 dead), and March 21 Tahoua attack(127 dead). Do you people think those 3 attacks are notable enough for their own Wikipedia article.--Garmin21 (talk) 01:10, 1 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes, if enough sources can be found to create separate articles for them. Jim Michael (talk) 20:16, 18 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Considering they are separate articles on French Wikipedia, I think I can.--Garmin21 (talk) 01:55, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Support this. Bokoharamwatch (talk) 18:49, 4 January 2022 (UTC) Ps sudan (darfur) has same prob.Reply

2021 Niger attacks → Jihadist insurgency in Niger – I propose to change the article title to "Jihadist insurgency in Niger" following the example of Jihadist insurgency in Burkina Faso.

I also propose to change the scope of this article to cover the entire insurgency in Niger and not just a period of the conflict (the year 2021). Several sources support that Niger is facing a jihadist insurgency. (example) --Fontaine347 (talk) 22:12, 2 February 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.
