Pure fiction on this page
editWas this page hacked or written by Bulgarian ultra-nationalists or something? It apparently hasn't received more than a cursory look from anyone. Bulgaria listed as the "victor" in World War I and World War II in the right-hand column? The information on this page is completely made up.
Right and peace treaty with Bulgaria after WWI was Treaty of Neuilly not Treaty of Versailles — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.38.78.161 (talk) 20:17, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
Russia is not actively fights the war in Afghanistan. It officially sells arms to the pro-American Afghani puppet regime and provides the the maintenance of the Soviet-made helicopters and recently one of the American Generals in Afghanistan blamed without any documented evidence Russia for "apparent" sell of arms to Taliban. The information about the "participation" of Russia in the current war in Afghanistan indicated on this page is garbage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.142.129.237 (talk) 19:43, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Numerous Issues
editThe list is based on unreferenced 3 line stubs which contradict its content. Other issues include grammar and Bulgarian POV pushing in the Result section. How could a simple list become such a disaster is beyond me.--Catlemur (talk) 20:11, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
Deletion
editStarting next weekend (lets give it a week for edds to sort this mess out) I will start to delete any wars that are not actually wikilinked to a war. If we do not have a page on it how lily is it there was a war? I will of course not do this to any conflict that actually has a citation establishing it is a real thing.Slatersteven (talk) 13:06, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
I will admit to thinking (given the undiscused constant reverts to a very poor POV pushing version) (I am thinking of starting tomorrow. I am getting bit sick and tired of the mess this page keeps getting reverted back to. Maybe it may even be a case this page is more work then it is worth and may need to be nuked.Slatersteven (talk) 18:27, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
- What needs to happen here is that we need to get this page protected again so that only extended confirmed editors can edit (or indef block Detroiter313 and make it autoconfirmed only). Also, I wonder if the color coding system really works because for example, was World War II really a victory for Bulgaria?Kges1901 (talk) 18:32, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
- Leave out the colour coding, maybe. But we do need to put in who won, rather then treat it as a win or lose for Bulgaria. Also I am more concerned with the shifting IP editors rather then one user. But page protection might work (until it is lifted).Slatersteven (talk) 07:38, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Perhaps a rangeblock on the University of Michigan IP addresses (that's where they are coming from) would help. Kges1901 (talk) 08:32, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- But extreme, a whole university.Slatersteven (talk) 11:45, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- I mean a rangeblock on University of Michigan-Dearborn IP addresses with the numbers that have been used for vandalism. Kges1901 (talk) 12:14, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Fair enough, as this seems to be all they really do.Slatersteven (talk) 12:58, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

OK, you have 7 days to start adding sources, no more CN tags. If it aint sourced as a war in 7 days its gets removed.Slatersteven (talk) 08:41, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
Note this will start to include wars linked to articles that make no mention of any such war. There is still way to much wp:or and wp:synthesis in this list.Slatersteven (talk) 10:10, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Over use of puffery and weasel words
editAnnihilates, Obliterates, invincible and god knows how many more. Keep it neutral and bland.Slatersteven (talk) 19:14, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
2021 and this article is still not deleted
editThis was written clearly by some bulgarian ultranationalists but it is beyond me how this article is still around in Wikipedia 46.177.76.11 (talk) 06:57, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

WP:OR
editLast set of edits presented by Kaiseredit have been rightfully deleted by several editors per WP:OR. Editor should use a talk page first with WP:RS presentation which means that WP: Onus is also applied here. Thank you. Theonewithreason (talk) 19:16, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
Volga Bulgaria
editIs it a good idea to add Volga Bulgaria to this list of wars? KeymasterOne (talk) 20:03, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
