Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

1994 civil war in Yemen → Yemeni Civil War (1994) – Consistency with Yemeni Civil War (2015) and virtually every other "Civil War" article. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 02:46, 23 April 2015 (UTC) Charles Essie (talk) 20:43, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Sounds reasonable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:14, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for belligerents[edit]

Hello, everyone. I recently made some changes to the belligerents section since many of the cited sources were inaccurate. That were multiple sources being used but with the exception of info from the book "The Yemeni War of 1994: Causes and Consequences," they can all be accessed directly by readers. "The Yemeni War of 1994: Causes and Consequences" is harder to access so here are the direct quotes from the book that were used to determine what country aided who:

Page 27 - “Light weapons [were transported] Lebanon and Egypt to Aden to bolster the YSP army.”
Page 85 - “Qatar did not join in the call by other GCC states for a cease-fire in Yemen and… provided financial aid to the Salih government during the conflict”
Page 85 - “Jordan was also reported to have backed the Salih government”
Page 85 - “Colonel Qadhdhafi of Libya, who often pursues an anti-Saudi policy, was also said to have supported San’a’.”
Page 86 - “Sudan also sided with San’a’.”

The result of the move request was: Speedy moved, reversion of an undiscussed move to a somewhat incorrect title (non-admin closure) – Thjarkur (talk) 14:31, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

First Yemeni Civil War → Yemeni Civil War (1994) – No source is given that calls this the "First Yemeni Civil War", which, by the way, ignores the North Yemen Civil War and the South Yemen Civil War. I propose restoring the old name used before the move by Jewlluinazi1998. Koopinator (talk) 12:30, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Koopinator, you can just request revert of undiscussed moves. You don't need to start a request for move discussion. I have requested a revert for undiscussed move.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 14:11, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weapons/Equipment[edit]

Can You Please Add A List Of Weapons That Are Used In This War ? 188.136.9.17 (talk) 20:09, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Considering that few articles and books on this war exist at all, I doubt that anyone ever documented the involved weaponry. Applodion (talk) 22:01, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Timeline of the Yemeni Crisis (2011–present) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 16:20, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
