  • Delete though I’ve no objection to draftification. The creator appears to have gone through the chronicles and written an article about every armed conflict that ever took place between Ethiopia and Adal using the formula “battle of [place mentioned] whether the source describes that as “[battle of place mentioned]” or not. I think there is sufficient sourcing for several more broad-based articles talking about each war, or each campaign, or each period, but not one for each “battle”. This is an area of history which is currently under covered, but that isn’t a license to embroider and expand on what sources say. Draftification would allow the creator to figure out some way of repurposing the material they’ve researched and combining multiple current articles in the series they’ve created in the NPP queue, but unless they ask to do that, I agree we should delete.
