:::No, that's not how wikipedia works. It's based on reliable sources, independent of the subjects. As a compromise how about we put circa 20,000 in infobox? The Guardian source you added says 15,000 with 5,000 on stand-by. And the source you removed says 20,000. This is something minor to edit-war over. --[[User:Griboski|Griboski]] ([[User talk:Griboski|talk]]) 01:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Karpalak ambush, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Synorem (talk) 11:43, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox result

Hello. You should really be more careful. You reverted edits on the Attack on Prekaz without any justification, even though your edit is contrary to WP:MILMOS#INFOBOX. By the way, bullet points are only used for lists. This is pretty much common knowledge. Apart from that, the content you are trying to add is unsupported. The attack did not result in the beginning of the Kosovo War or the re-formation of the KLA. StephenMacky1 (talk) 13:01, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arbanon coat of arms

The coat of arms speculatively attributed to the Principality of Arbanon has been refuted by conservation specialist Koço Zheku whose findings were published in the scientific periodical "Iliria" in 1984. The person who discovered the coat of arms, Austrian consul Ippen makes no mention of Arbanon whatsoever, when describing the coat of arms. Kj1595 (talk) 18:08, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Caution: Adding unsourced content or misrepresenting sources

Here you claim I "refused to see the source" yet I've looked at the reference you provided and nowhere in the document does it state that more than 65 civilians were killed in the conflict, the majority of whom were Serbs, like you wrote. The only time it mentions casualties in the war is on the first page where it states that "about 100 people were killed", without specifying ethnicity and military vs. civilian.

Wikipedia requires content to be verifiable. If something's not in the source you cite, that information is liable to be removed. Also, you should use a template when citing. Clicking on the cite button above when editing and then on the template button will allow you to fill-in information about the reference(s) you are citing. That way, instead of just adding a link, you can add the page number and a quote which verifies the information you are adding. --Griboski (talk) 16:25, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. --Griboski (talk) 15:58, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If a source says something like "the KLA claimed" we can only put it as a claim and not take it as fact unless it's just stated as a fact in reliable sources. The source you added says 15,000-17,000 while the Bartrop reference says 20,000. 24,000 is a claim by the KLA. It's best to stick to what is stated. BTW, these are numbers at their height. There were only about 5,000 at the beginning of the war per the Guardian. --Griboski (talk) 16:07, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The KLA would keep a track of how many troops they have then British new's sources. Jolly73881 (talk) 01:21, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
