WARNING: ACTIVE COMMUNITY SANCTIONS

The article 2024 Kobani clashes, along with other pages relating to the Syrian Civil War and ISIL, is designated by the community as a contentious topic. The current restrictions are:

  • Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period)

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be sanctioned.

Remedy instructions and exemptions

Enforcement procedures:

  • Violations of any restrictions (excluding 1RR/reverting violations) and other conduct issues should be reported to the administrators' incidents noticeboard. Violations of revert restrictions should be reported to the administrators' edit warring noticeboard.
  • Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
  • An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.

With respect to any reverting restrictions:

  • Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
  • Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as clear vandalism.
  • Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.
  • Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!

2024 Kobani offensive2024 Kobani clashes – It does not appear like their is an "offensive" yet more like clashes and air strikes so i propose a name change Braganza (talk) 19:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

@Noble Attempt, Des Vallee, and Ecrusized: Braganza (talk) 20:04, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
Agree: The current battle situation seems to mostly be focused on heavy artillery, drone strikes, and some attempted ground operations on the Tishrin Dam and other bridges along the Euphrates which have not produced any results. I can move the article now if consensus is reached and move it back if the situation changes, especially if the reported amassing of Turkish troops along the border with Kobani develops further. Thank you for bringing this up! Noble Attempt (talk) 20:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
I haven't edited that article before, but I'm in favor of removing it since there doesn't seem to be an offensive in Kobani region. Ecrusized (talk) 00:02, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
Personally, I would suggest a merge into “Operation Dawn of Freedom” since both conflicts seem to be related. Also, there’s a similar discussion on the other talk page. So based on that I say merge. 2600:1702:5870:5930:5C77:9C6A:2E8E:CF1D (talk) 00:12, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
i kinda agree but i am not sure, an actual offensive appears likely so and the main "Operation Dawn of Freedom" campaign pretty much stopped by now. So i think it should stay Braganza (talk) 12:38, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Casualties

@David O. Johnson: @88.243.192.169: @RopeTricks:

88.243.192.169, you are again adding false information after previously being reverted, this source is describing SDF casualties for all of December, not December 20, also the new casualty number doesn't even make any sense, how earth did you get 42 from 11+6+5+21, which again mention casualties from December through the entire fighting not from December 20.

Since the beginning of December, SOHR documented the death of 54 people, including civilians, and the injury of 16 others, including eight individuals in 26 attacks executed by Turkish drones. The Syrian Observatory has documented the death of 54 civilians and combatants and the injury of 16 others in 26 airstrikes by Turkish drones on SDF-controlled areas in December. not December 20, it's the overall amount of dead, not the dead of one day. Des Vallee (talk) 06:38, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

I don't really have anything more to add. I was about to revert the IP with the same explanation that the casualties in that ref are for all of December. David O. Johnson (talk) 06:41, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
@David O. Johnson: You can still do a revert without breaking 1RR, because the first revert was on technical grounds (citations and some text were broken), while 1RR only applies to content. So I would recommend reverting, if you believe the content is incorrect. Des Vallee (talk) 06:45, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
I manually removed the incorrect info, but left the discuss tag in place. David O. Johnson (talk) 06:49, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

SDF victory

Based on what? Article looks like WP:OR. Also no victory at all for both sides. What gained SDF to be victorious? Beshogur (talk) 14:34, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
