WP:NOPAGE. The entire article is explicitly WP:OR, with the research method described in paragraphs 2 and 3 of the lede. The article is almost suitable for speedy deletion (A11), except that the topic is potentially important (even if invented). A merge to Timeline of United States military operations or similar was considered but there doesn't seem to be sufficient background material to warrant this.

(talk|contribs) 10:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC) - Delete I'm utterly baffled why this would be worthy of an article here. I see no indication why anyone should care when this report has been updated and revised. Like, obviously it would be like many CRS reports. Are the individual changes actually significant? Has anyone independently taken note of them? This is weird. Reywas92Talk 13:29, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Ok, so the report exists, but why is it notable? This would be suitable in some military website, not here. I don't see notability. Oaktree b (talk) 15:26, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Timeline of United States military operations. I deprodded this because the nom said
the topic is potentially important
and I assume by this they meant the Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad report was important and I assume it is. But although Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad redirects to Timeline of United States military operations and there are claims in the history of Timeline of United States military operations that a merge was performed, I see no mention of Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad in Timeline of United States military operations. So I suggest the first two lead paragraphs of this article could be merged there. ~Kvng (talk) 14:51, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: This appears to be heavily based on WP:OR and does not meet the WP:NLIST. Let'srun (talk) 16:16, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:TNT and WP:NOT. Besides being a hot mess, we are not a bibliography of primary sources. Bearian (talk) 14:30, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
