First, the allies purpose is neither to topple the government nor to help other belligerents in civil war. Second, the Houthi involvement in Israel should be considered in context of Axis of Resistance, not by Yemeni civil war, because all the party who now support Hamas including Houthi is member/included in this group. Third, Saudi Arabia and its Arab-allies are not part participating this operation, nor supporting this operation. That's why it should be viewd as the operation is consequences of Israel-Hamas war.

@ 웬디러비: Your RfC statement fails WP:RFCNEUTRAL. I also see no indication that WP:RFCBEFORE has been exhausted. Accordingly, I shall be pulling the {{ rfc}} tag; please discuss in the normal way. -- Redrose64 🌹 ( talk) 11:14, 16 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Almost everything in your message is wrong and you are not giving a taught to the fact that this war has been ongoing for a DECADE and many, many things can happen in that time span Abo Yemen ✉ 13:14, 16 January 2024 (UTC) reply

That cannot support your edit. If someone wants to add Operation Prosperity Guardian into Yemeni civil war, then he/she should prove it by giving a sufficient data. Do you have any reason to put this as a part of Yemeni civil war? Wendylove ( talk) 02:44, 17 January 2024 (UTC) reply

• Comment: The Yemeni civil war and Operation Prosperity Guardian are not the same, and involvement in one does not mean becoming a party to both. It may have implications for the other, but it does not automatically follow that these parties have become a part of the civil war. RS show the actions taken have been limited to the objectives of the operation and do not have a role in the civil war. IS RS do not state that Operation Prosperity Guardian makes these nations parties, and without a consensus of reliable sources showing this it is opinion.

If proper IS RS sources can be found, no objection to adding a NPOV section on the secondary effects of Operation Prosperity Guardian on the civil war. But the added material must meet WP:WEIGHT and BALANCE and not imply what the sources do not state.  //  Timothy ::  talk  03:18, 18 January 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Borysk5 The new map is way more better than the previous one in details and but it shouldn't have replaced the older map. Maybe an update to the older map was a better idea Abo Yemen ✉ 12:36, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

It would also be helpful if updates were made to Module:Yemeni Civil War detailed map Abo Yemen ✉ 12:54, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Wikimedia Commons blocked overriting files for some reason a few months ago... So I made a new file. Borysk5 ( talk) 12:56, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Try making a new map based on the original one and the module and change its name to "map of the Yemeni civil war (2014–present).svg" or something close to that Abo Yemen ✉ 12:59, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

• Comment: Restored previous stable version. Two editor have objected to the change, discuss and gain consensus on talk page for changes in the map, per WP:BRD and ONUS. Old map showed more significant details (pop centers) and appears more detailed. These changes need consensus.

I'm seeing information on the new map that is not supported in the source. Eg: New map designates an area for Al Qaeda and I do not see this supported in the text or on the map. [1], [2].  //  Timothy ::  talk  17:55, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

@ TimothyBlue he gave his reasoning in a Youtube video Abo Yemen ✉ 09:41, 2 February 2024 (UTC) reply

@ TimothyBlue: This is based on Al-Qaeda presence from second map in the article: [3]. Borysk5 ( talk) 21:16, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello everyone. I made a YouTube video where I investigated how the way wikipedia maps of this conflict were produced led to mistake in many maps continuing showing vast Al-Qaeda control in Hadramaut: [4]. Borysk5 ( talk) 19:59, 30 January 2024 (UTC) reply

We we currently have United States soldiers for their work for the UN they're currently been trapped there one of them I know for sure for over a year after their time of time to turn return home and because of the flight restrictions they had to pay for their own flight back home that cost over $3,000 and there's no way for them to accumulate that kind of money so they are stuck 65.186.177.14 ( talk) 01:18, 16 April 2024 (UTC) reply
