This page on the UK government's Operation Yellowhammer deals with the UK's preparations for a no-deal exit from the EU.
Q. Should there be a separate page doing the same for the EU's corresponding work? (If there is such a page already it is not yet linked herefrom and I did not find it in a search.)
Q. Or should there be a comprehensive page on, say, "Preparations for the UK to leave the EU without a deal" which set out work done by the EU, the UK and commercial organisations separately, as known?
Q. Or should all such info be deleted from Wikipedia as describing an ongoing event or thought to be too subject to partisan editing?
Comments welcome.

While it would be useful to say Operation Yellowhammer was not activiated in the run up to April 12th because everyone was reasonably certain there would be a further extension I am not sure that can be sourced .... Djm-leighpark ( talk) 06:26, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
‘’However, the Sunday Times, according to The Observer,’’ it would be better to quote the Sunday Times here. Broichmore ( talk) 05:05, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
[1] Putting this here in case anyone finds it useful for the article. I won't add it myself since I don't understand this stuff really. 173.228.123.207 ( talk) 10:08, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

This is a result of MP Dominic Grieve's Special Humble Address in Parliament on Monday, which requested from the government to publish the Operation YellowHammer documents by 11pm Wednesday. Isofarro ( talk) 19:06, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
Yellowhammer is an anagram of Orwell Mayhem. There is no way that is a random accident.-- Shantavira| feed me 13:04, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
An IP editor has just updated with ref to a BBC article saying that Yellowhammer has been triggered. This looks POV to me, but it is properly sourced so will wait for some consensus. Government saying they are triggering the plan appears to be meaningless. The plan is triggered by the event of a No Deal. Up until then it is presumably just under active preparation. I don't think this article should say it is triggered. At best it should say the government are saying they are triggering it. Thoughts? Sirfurboy ( talk) 15:33, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

I believe that both of the pages ( Operation Kingfisher (Brexit) and Operation Black Swan (Brexit)) do not meet WP:GNG and I don't expect any new material that would otherwise support a separate expansion of these articles because the event that is connected to these topics (Brexit) already happened. - 49.147.253.47 ( talk) 07:43, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
