Why is "the war in Donbas" not capitalized
editWar is part of a proper noun in this case. NesserWiki (talk) 03:02, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Per MOS:CAPS, it is not consistently capped in sources. Cinderella157 (talk) 09:36, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

There is an error in the "Fighting worsens in eastern Donetsk Oblast " section, where the village of Tarany links to a village in Hungary. Remove this hyperlink. Loraisthebestfont (talk) 08:58, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
Infobox end date
editWhat's the precedent for a war being subsumed by another war? When there's a battle, there's start and end dates, and you can implicitly tell its part of a larger war, but titling an article "War in <location>" and having an end date in that infobox seems to suggest the "war" ended, when it didn't actually end, that phase of the war was eclipsed by the much larger invasion. Also, I don't think the "Major combat operations phase ended on 20 February 2015" is very relevant, there was sporadic levels of fighting all throughout 2014-2022.
