Article is fully unsourced and does not to be encyclopedic. The event and ongoing police action is already covered here: Apex (gang)#Police crackdown, which means this may be CSD worthy. Prod removed by author. RickinBaltimore (talk) 16:27, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The article name is not used anywhere else but on wikipedia. While Victoria police have an operation cosmos it is not a "war on street gangs" - see here. This is just a sensationalist name for normal police activity. Nothing notable. noq (talk) 17:32, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - essentially as per WP:TNT and the above. Any pertinent coverage of this alleged "war" ought to be at Apex (gang) and/or maybe Gangs in Australia. GAB^gab 18:16, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
