Talk:Operation Ramadan

As it is it sounds like it was more politically than historically written —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cook503 (talk • contribs) 14:48, 31 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

How come there are no arabic and farsi translation for this article ?? how can i request that to whom can do it ?? Dr B2 (talk) 16:14, 15 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Here, I have reverted this page way back to a a very much older version of the article. I have not looked at this carefully -- perhaps my revert ought to have been more aggressive; perhaps the article ought to have been reverted further back.

Geez, people -- get a grip. If you are going to replace properly footnoted content do not do it in a manner which destroys the footnotes. Please read WP:CITE, HELP:Footnotes and some other relevant material before screwing up Wikipedia articles. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 11:33, 15 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

(addition) It occurs to me that some irate editor might challenge this, so I'll provide a short bit of explanation. One bit of the edit reverted

On 16 July, Iran tried again further north and managed to push the Iraqis back. However, only 13 km (8.1 mi) from Basra, the poorly equipped Iranian forces were surrounded on three sides by Iraqis with heavy weaponry. Some were captured, while many were killed. Only a last-minute attack by Iranian AH-1 Cobra helicopters stopped the Iraqis from routing the Iranians.[63] Three more similar attacks occurred around the Khorramshar-Baghdad road area towards the end of the month, but none were significantly successful.[43]

to

Iraq had concentrated three armoured divisions, the 3rd, 9th, and 10th, as a counterattack force to attack any penetrations. They were successful in defeating the Iranian breakthroughs, but suffered heavy losses. The 9th Armoured Division in particular had to be disbanded, and was never reformed. (Pollack, Arabs at War, 2002, p. 204-5)

Now, I don't know anything about that, but I do know that "[63] and [43]" are total crap as citations of supporting sources. Please, people, get your act together. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 11:47, 15 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
