Talk:Al-Qaeda insurgency in Yemen

Content disputed

I dispute the content in this article. The number of civilian casualties is severely underexaggerated, as information is taken from government sources. Also, the U.S. involvement needs to have way more attention. See, for example, [1]. I'm not an expert on this subject, but this page is currently very much lacking. --Gerrit CUTEDH 20:56, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reviving the discussion, I believe there is much more to be added to the article - civilian and Yemen government deaths seem to be under-reported (at least from what I have been reading throughout the last 6 months in terms of daily casualty reports and news articles). American involvement should also be explained, especially in the context of the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki. If pictures are avaliable, then we should try and maybe find one as well. --Skycycle (talk) 01:12, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Yemeni al-Qaeda crackdown

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Yemeni al-Qaeda crackdown's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "google1":

Reference named "nytimes2":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:44, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Made up casualty figures removed

I've just removed the casualty figures from the infobox which appear to have been made up from adding up casualty reports in different news stories per WP:OR. It's hugely unlikely that these stories include all casualties or are totally accurate, and reliable sources should be available to provide totals anyway. I also suspect that these are being added by IP socks of a banned editor. Nick-D (talk) 01:49, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming?

I tried to put some sense into the article by updating and adding some information. However, given the recent developments - including the ongoing battle near Lawdar and the major casualties the Yemeni Army has been taking the last month or so, I think this deserves a rename, because it is no longer a crackdown, but rather an attempt by the Army to regain control over several Governorates that are slipping away. Let's hear some suggestions, shall we? Skycycle (talk) 20:06, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I reorganized the article and added some more information and boxes. There is still some stuff that needs to be re-edited and updated, especially during the 2009-2010 period. It would be a good idea to expand the article into topics that have not been covered - such as international reactions to the violence and regional implications, particularly in the context of the situation in Somalia. Skycycle (talk) 22:52, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that it should be renamed to Yemeni - AQAP conflict or something similar, no reliable source uses the words crackdown in describing it.74.105.134.233 (talk) 01:55, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Internal conflict in Yemen - that encompasses the Houthi rebellion, 2011 clashes and AQAP--93.137.168.151 (talk) 15:54, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
or a clue: The attack was set against the backdrop of a raging war in the southern provinces of Yemen.--Reader1987 (talk) 19:31, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that it should be renamed. As soon as I got to this article, I went straight to the talk page to see if people were considering renaming it. Crackdown sounds very loaded. Hamsterlopithecus (talk) 04:20, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Update needed

The situation has changed drastically in the past 5 months.[2] Farolif (talk) 06:50, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Time

Any source that the insurgency initiated in 2001?Greyshark09 (talk) 19:50, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just WHERE is the article about the "battles in Abyan"?

I thought it would be 2012 Abyan offensive. But it's not about it.

Then I thought it would be Battle of Zinjibar. But that's not about it neither.

At least 73, or maybe rather 184, soldiers were "basically slaughtered" in a "sophisticated" assault and a huge arsenal of weapons including tanks was stolen from them and yet it's nowhere on Wikipedia. --Niemti (talk) 21:40, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Split tags

I removed the split tags because they had been up for a long time and had no attention. Although I can se why someone may want to split the sections off, I dont think they would make viable articles as they stand.Op47 (talk) 23:27, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Title

The title says "al-Qaida insurgency in Yemen", but there are events here listed from 1998 (?!), when al-Qaeda was in shadows in Afghanistan. In addition, AQAP doesn't really exist in present, as it waned, while another group named "Ansar al-Sharia" emerged in Yemen in the past 3 years. I would propose Islamist insurgency in Yemen (as said here).GreyShark (dibra) 17:35, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, they're the same organisation. [3] The Department of State amended the Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and E.O. 13224 designations of al-Qa’ida in the Arabian Peninsula to include the new alias, Ansar al-Shari’a (AAS). The Department of State previously designated AQAP as an FTO and under E.O. 13224 on January 19, 2010. AAS – which is based in Yemen and is a separate entity from Ansar al-Shari’a in Libya – was established to attract potential followers to shari’a rule in areas under the control of AQAP. However, AAS is simply AQAP’s effort to rebrand itself, with the aim of manipulating people to join AQAP’s terrorist cause. Gazkthul (talk) 10:57, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Split

Propose to split this article to al-Qaeda insurgency in Yemen (1998–2011) and Ansar al-Sharia insurgency in Yemen (part of the Yemeni Crisis (2011–present)) in the consequence of discussion at List of ongoing military conflicts page. This will be in accordance to the similar case of Iraqi insurgency, which is separated to pre-2011 and post-2011 articles, in light of the difference in scopes.GreyShark (dibra) 18:43, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Very Strongly Oppose - The combatants are all pretty much the same (with the exception of ISIL), and it was always the same insurgency. Splitting up the article would only make it harder for readers to access the information for the entire Yemeni Civil War, which is already fragmented into 2 articles for the most part. Ansar al-Sharia in Yemen is nearly synonymous with AQAP, with the exception of the elements that broke off to join ISIL, so there the shift in the focus would be pointless. It is also Wikipedia protocol to have only one article per conflict, unless it grows too long. The are no reliable sources declaring that the 1994 insurgency ended in 2010, and that a new one began in 2011. As such, I oppose the split. LightandDark2000 (talk) 20:19, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - since not agreed on split, i will remove all non-al-Qaida related events.GreyShark (dibra) 07:38, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
