Translation

In footnote 187 I provide a quote from an orginal Hebrew source as well as my own translation. Since I am not a native Hebrew speaker, any improvemants of the translation is welcome.

במלחמה נהרגו על פי הערכות שונות בין 300 ל-700 לוחמי חיזבאללה ונפצעו כ-1,000 ההבדל בין מקורות ישראלים ללבנוניים ביחס למספר הנפגעים נובע בעיקר מן ההבחנה הלבנונית בין פעילי חיזבאללה "אזרחיים" לבין פעילים "צבאיים"; כאשר רק האחרונים נכללים במניין ההרוגים מקרב הלוחמים.

According to different estimates, between 300 and 700 Hezbollah fighters were killed and about 1,000 wounded. The difference between Israeli and Lebanese sources concerning the number of casualties is mainly due to the Lebanese distinction between "civilian" Hezbollah operatives and "military" operatives, with only the latter being included in the death toll of the fighters.

This is a fine translation. “WarKosign” 08:31, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
OK, thanks! Jokkmokks-Goran (talk) 18:11, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

NewsMax

Egsan Bacon removed an item from the article, claiming "WP:NEWSMAX is a deprecated source". This may be true from 2020 onward, but hardly in 2006. Newsmax was described by The New York Times as a "potent force" in U.S. politics and by Forbes as a "news powerhouse".

Buidhe's massive removal of sourced, attributed content

Strange that Buidhe didnt remove any of the opinion pieces claiming a Hezbollah victory. He only removed the other side entirely. I don't believe for a second it was a coincidence. Please be alert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.246.140.56 (talk) 11:34, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 13 March 2022

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Somebody needs to restore the Lebanese civilians subsection to the casualties section of this article. It was mass removed while "Israeli civilians" subsection was kept.

https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=2006_Lebanon_War&oldid=1064958610#Casualties_and_damage

The link above shows the Lebanese civilians subsection before it was removed. Please take this into account. 2601:85:C101:C9D0:8962:6D1B:7F58:D09 (talk) 04:30, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

@Jokkmokks-Goran: I think the section heading was removed in this edit. The inforomation seems not to be entirely gone, but somewhat reduced. “WarKosign” 06:16, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
OK, I will fix it. Jokkmokks-Goran (talk) 10:04, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
