What about the War on Terror and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict? --Tydaj 23:32, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I removed War on terrorism. For more info check out Talk:List_of_wars also for Israeli-Palestinian Conflict --Kulkuri 21:11, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

The War on Terrorism is not limited to Afghanistan. It should be listed separately. Copperchair 07:37, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

I am removing Imia/Kardak, as it hardly meets any reasonable definition of a war.

Gujarat Violence

The violence in Gujarat can more accurately be termed as riots. The term "war" as used for the other conflicts on this page doesn't suit it. Consequently, I have removed the link to it from this page.

Who the hell erased the Rwanda genocide that occured in 1994? Put it back.Fclass 19:15, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Ignore my previous post. I found it. My bad.Fclass 19:17, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Brazilian Gang War

I propose the removal of this entry, as it is not related to a "war", but rather gang violence and riots. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabiojung (talk • contribs) 17:08, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

I removed the Brazilian Gang War from the list. EZ1234 (talk) 08:06, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Sortable tables do not work correctly

Note that the tables can't be sorted correctly by date, because the first word of the date column is the day, not the year. They should be arranged by yyyy:mm:dd: to work correctly. The same problem occurs in List of wars 1945-1989 and List of wars 2003-current. Rayhou (talk) 09:35, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Multiple amendments

User:Jersay seem to be making extensive changes to this page without sources, basing their decisions on personal perception. I alone don't feel qualified to make any kind of definitive claim about what should be here; can some friendly editors help, please? AlexTiefling (talk) 18:00, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Merge with 1945-1989 and change to 1999

This, the 2003-current, ongoing, and 1945-1989 article are a mess. A table for 1990-1999 appears in the 1945-1989 article, for example. Consensus needs to be reached on how to display them. I suggest the following:

• Change the 1945-1989 article to 1945-1999 and merge all relevant aspects of this article into that one.
• Change the 2003-current article to 2000-current, reformat it so that the table matches the other list articles, and remove all currently unresolved conflicts to the ongoing conflicts article.

--CPAScott (talk) 16:45, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

I agree with the proposed merge. This 12-year period seems arbitrary. Placing the split at the end of the 1990s sounds a bit better. Dimadick (talk) 08:03, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

• Agree but until 2001, when the century ended--TheFEARgod (Ч) 11:14, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

• No, 1999/2000 seems a more natural dividing point. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 23:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Why not make the lists 1945-1992, to show wars that were during and later a result of the Cold War/Breakup of the Soviet Union, and then 1992-current for everything Post-Cold War? Casual T .30-06 (talk) 18:42, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

What Do You Think?

Should War on Terror and Operation Enduring Freedom in the Phillipines and the Horn of Africa be added? It seems a little redundant. B-Machine (talk) 14:25, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

While the "War on Terror" has led to actual wars, itself it is not a war. Rather, the word "war" is being used in a metaphorical sense, as in "War on Drugs". I would therefore remove "War on Terror" from this list.  Cs32en Talk to me  08:58, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Operation Enduring Freedom – Horn of Africa seems to be redundant to War in Somalia (2006–2009), and the 2002 incident is not, as far as I can see, considered to be the start of a war, so the 2002 year figure may be misleading.  Cs32en Talk to me  09:03, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm thinking about deleting War on Terror, Operation Enduring Freedom - Horn of Africa, and Operation Enduring Freedom - Phillipines because they are redundant. I'd like for people vote on it. B-Machine (talk) 14:42, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Change to 1990-1999

I cannot see any reason why this list goes until 2002, and it seems more natural to break the article at the end of 1900s and move 2001-2002 wars to the 2003-current article. Leviavery (talk) 21:38, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

• Agree, there were previously lists for 2000s and 2010s which have since been merged. Same should happen with this page. Cupofteaguy (talk) 16:31, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

Waco siege

Should the Waco siege be included? I don't think so, it was only six weeks and didn't become violent until the end, I would hardly call it a 'war,' but other editors think it meets the definition. Thoughts? Bkatcher (talk) 23:02, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Bkatcher: An argument could be made that the involvement of the US military elevates it above a routine police action. It that case, i would compare it less to routine police actions or police brutality and more to smaller-scale military operations such the Siege of Daraa or the Grand Mosque seizure.

Chechen Civil War

There's no article for such a war anywhere in the Wikipedia. Nor is it mentioned in 1993 or 1994, supposedly the years in which the conflict started and ended. Sgt.McHale (talk) 20:41, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

I'll remove it for now. Sgt.McHale (talk) 20:42, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
