I believe we should rename this article.

In short, I believe we should rename this article to the "Third Sudanese civil war" As, this war was the third. (The first 2 were South Sudan independence wars" This was also suggested by 2604:3D09:1F80:CA00:D501:1090:B90D:9241. 172.250.239.208 (talk) 15:55, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Although this war has different characteristics from the first two, it's still a major war between armed Sudanese factions.--Zarateman (talk) 11:05, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Separate page for the recent SAF Offensive

While most of the focus on the recent offensive by the SAF is on their gains in Khartoum Bahri, there are also reports of heavy fighting in other areas like Jebel Moya, as well as fighting between the Darfur Joint Protection Force and RSF in the North Darfur region. Since the Darfur Joint Protection Force is allied to the SAF, it seems appropriate that a separate page is made for the fighting currently going on and for any other developments during this offensive.

Why on earth does the entire page have italicized font?

What has happened here? Why has it been up for MONTHS without being brought up? How do we fix it? Cheers, atque supra! Fake scientist 8000 22:12, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
