Talk:Opération Chammal

WARNING: ACTIVE COMMUNITY SANCTIONS

The article Opération Chammal, along with other pages relating to the Syrian Civil War and ISIL, is designated by the community as a contentious topic. The current restrictions are:

Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period)

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be sanctioned.

Remedy instructions and exemptions

Enforcement procedures:

Violations of any restrictions (excluding 1RR/reverting violations) and other conduct issues should be reported to the administrators' incidents noticeboard. Violations of revert restrictions should be reported to the administrators' edit warring noticeboard.
Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.

With respect to any reverting restrictions:

Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as clear vandalism.
Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.
Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!

Assets[edit]

Would the addition of which units are participating or have taken park in this operation be beneficial to this article? Gavbadger (talk) 17:51, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Special forces are attacked?[edit]

Someone wrote in the campaign box "ISIL ground attacks on French special forces repelled".

Would you be nice enough to give some sources? Either this is fake, or I would be most likely interested in reading this story. As far as I know :

- French SF are present in Iraq to train Iraqi army (notably at command skills) and Kurdish forces. French eventually supplied Kurds with GIAT-made 20mm guns in 2014 and provided them training. French magazine RAIDS (specialized in military topics) wrote about them. - Some French Airforce troops (but not SF) are deployed in Jordan to protect French warplanes operating from airbases in this country. They were publicly shown in a video of the French military Facebook official page.

There might be French SF or French intelligence services' operators in both Iraq and Syria for more delicate missions but this has never been heard or written here, as far as I know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.153.139.64 (talk) 12:19, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please create redirects[edit]

So there is Opération Chammal (note the acute accent) and Operation Barkhane (no accent). And inversely, Operation Chammal doesn't exist, and neither does Opération Barkhane. There should be more consistency. Either both articles have an accent, or neither has. And in any case, the other variant should exist as a redirect. --95.170.46.22 (talk) 17:14, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I created Operation Chammal as a redirect to this page a while ago. Regarding Opération Barkhane, it is not generally policy to redirect from a title with diacritical marks to a title without. Pppery (talk) 21:57, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
