Propose Closing this in Aug 2012 and starting new War in Somalia Phase

I'd recommend closing this page effective with the approval of the Somali constitution and permanant Federal Government.Ryan.opel (talk) 09:57, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the war as a whole is about to end soon. Bardera seems to be Al-Shabaab's last major stronghold and the allied forces are already apparently marching towards it. Given this, perhaps we should be looking toward concluding the series. Middayexpress (talk) 13:53, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly it isn't over yet. I also say this phase should be closed out and a new one started.

Removing the Disagregated death data for 2012 from Uppsala Conflict Data Program

User:Middayexpress has removed the 2012 statistics for the Somali Civil War conflicts but added the reference as verification of the 500,000 death toll for the entire conflict. They also claim that the quote in itself violates the NPOV standard. Also they reference "c/e" which I am not familiar with in their deletion of the statistics. User:Middayexpress I will undo your revision and asked you to please explain your action on the talk page. Thank you.Wareditor2013 (talk) 13:10, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The presentation of the datasets was inaccurate, as explained here. Middayexpress (talk) 13:15, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
