The immediate cause of the violence Manogaran finds is rumor of Sinhalese policemen been attacked in Jaffna by Tamil militants.

Revision as of 10:01, 22 April 2024
The following discussions are requested to have community-wide attention:
Talk:Free Democratic Party (Germany)
| Which political position should be indicated in the Free Democratic Party's infobox?
Scia Della Cometa (talk) 08:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC) |
| Is the current title |
| Should the alternative spelling Sulayman Beg and the mention of the presence of a Turkmen minority be included in the article?--Ermanarich (talk) 12:32, 20 April 2024 (UTC) |
| Which of the following sections should be used in the Food and health section?
Robert McClenon (talk) 04:47, 17 April 2024 (UTC) |
Talk:Governor General of Canada
| Should it be mentioned in the lead, that the governor general is described as Canada's de facto head of state? GoodDay (talk) 20:15, 16 April 2024 (UTC) |
| Western media outlets (The Washington Post, BBC, El País, The Guardian, CPJ), name it the "Israel–Gaza war";.
Should the article mention that in the "Media coverage" section ? If so, could this draft work ? In April 2024 certain Western media outlets called the war as the Israel-Gaza war.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The Washington Post published an article titled "six months of the Israel-Gaza war: a timeline of key moments".[7] BBC explained the history of the conflict, calling it the "Israel-Gaza war".[8] El País called it the "war between Israel and Gaza".[9] The Guardian talked about the "Israel-Gaza war" when analyzing US views.[10] CPJ spoke about the "Israel-Gaza war" by writing about journalist casualties.[11] Deblinis (talk) 05:16, 16 April 2024 (UTC) |
| An IP user added a description like 'geographiclly located in Northern Europe' in the lede. (1, 2, 3, 4) I think it violates "Lithuania solution", the consensus which is made in the previous talk. (#RfC - The geographic locale of Estonia) I request other users' opinions for this issue. Do you support or oppose to add this description? 117.53.77.84 (talk) 15:13, 15 April 2024 (UTC) |
There are two primary questions.
07:37, 12 April 2024 (UTC) |
| Hi editors, this is regarding wether the article should include the quote from Zhou Qufei, Lingwai Daida or not. The history of the quote has been disputed on the talk page, since there are no consensus between Merzostin and Nitekuzee, RfC seems to be the best course of action. In light of the source and evidence, it should be determined wether to:
Option #1: Keep The Quote Option #2: Remove The Quote |
There are several editors in disagreement about how to state the result of the battle. Which option fits best? (Options picked from all previous main-space versions of the result section)

Talk:2024 United States presidential election
| There is currently an edit dispute on whether Kennedy Jr. should appear in the infobox of states that will likely not receive polling in the 2024 presidential election or have not been polled yet.
Option #1: Kennedy Jr. should appear in the infobox of every state he has ballot access in. Option #2: If the aggregate state polling shows Kennedy Jr. under >5% or >10% (whatever is determined by the RFC): then he shouldn't be included. If no polling has been done or he is above 5-10%, then he should be included. Option #3: Kennedy Jr. should not appear in the infobox if polling of the state has not been performed. |
Talk:Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore)
| The lead section first sentence says "The bridge was", in past tense. Should the first sentence be in past tense (Support past tense); or in present tense (Oppose past tense)? -- GreenC 19:24, 5 April 2024 (UTC) |
| The Royal House of the Medieval Cholas has been disputed in This discussion. @Pikachu 9988 has suggested that the imperial Cholas originate from the Pottappi branch. This has been challenged by other users. This has been a subject of various edit wars on related articles. Reviving this discussion for consensus. SKAG123 (talk) 19:23, 3 April 2024 (UTC) |
As this talk page shows, there has been an intractable debate on whether the subject should be described as Greek (or Albanian etc) and what spelling his name should have and connected questions. This RfC hopes to solve this issue. The issues are as follows:
|
| With regard to WP:Verifiability, WP:NPOV, and current academic consensus, should the article present the Reconquista as a matter of historical fact at face value or as historiographical narrative?
This has been a perennial discussion (such as here), and the article would benefit from some stabilizing, somewhat binding consensus. I am hoping for robust engagement with the latest scholarship and the most reliable sources. إيان (talk) 20:11, 29 March 2024 (UTC) |
