I don't personally see this as being on the level of a civil war (at least not now). Might be better to retitle this. Everyking 01:32, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What does UFDR stand for? I'm working on a wikinews article right now and I have no idea wha it stands for. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 _(samtal) 12:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! It means Union of Democratic Forces for Unity. Wait, that's UDFU. Now I'm confused. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 _(samtal) 13:07, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, UDFR is french. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 _(samtal) 13:09, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Crystal ball[edit]

As of November 15, 2006, this article was saying that CAR insurgents were claiming that they had captured a certain locality on November 20, 2006. I do not know what day this claim was made, but it was not made on November 20. Bigturtle 18:23, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

fixed, my bad. íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 _(samtal) 01:39, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sections[edit]

I think this needs more sections than "Events", but I'm not sure what sections to add, or if i knew what sections, what info that exists to put in them. If there is no other info, then I think we should just remove the "Events" header. So? íslenskur fel lib ylur #12 _(samtal) 15:17, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bot report : Found duplicate references ![edit]

In the last revision I edited, I found duplicate named references, i.e. references sharing the same name, but not having the same content. Please check them, as I am not able to fix them automatically :)

Merger Proposal[edit]

A merger proposal discussion has started at Talk:2012 Central African Republic rebellion#Merge with Central African Republic Bush War Keitsist (talk) 17:27, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cause?[edit]

Article fails to mention what was the cause and the motivation of the rebellion that started this war. --94.253.206.109 (talk) 09:20, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Caused by many factions struggling for power and resources and retribution spirals between factions like seleka and the anti balaka, the topic still needs heavy research. --CR055H41RZ (talk) 22:50, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fix the way this article lists sources[edit]

There's one section called "Citations" where most of the sources are. Some of those just lead to another section called "References". This is not how most articles list sources. Most articles have one section called "References" where all the sources are. They are also numbered like the citation section in this article. That should be the way this article lists sources ~~ Quinnerwinner12 (talk) 19:04, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
