So now, when someone searches for war, they go straight to an Anti-war quotes page? That doesn't seem sensible. DrSandstone 16:04, 29 March 2007 (EDT)
- Well, that was the case before the edit, too. The page move makes sense since the content was just a bunch of anti-war quotes. The War page isn't locked, so anybody can create a serious entry about it by editing the page at [1] --Sid 3050 16:08, 29 March 2007 (EDT)
- Alright, well I'm going to add a simple definition so that it at least doesn't redirect to anti-war quotes. DrSandstone 16:10, 29 March 2007 (EDT)
- You could add several links to existing articles on specific wars, too. MountainDew 16:12, 29 March 2007 (EDT)
The only external link is something called "what liberals say about war?"Jros83 20:19, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
re: Wars, USA and Russia
I looked at this and it doesn't appear to be correct or a good fit.
Three things:
1. There is a difference between using military force and a full-blown war. And the footnote doesn't appear to be saying the USA has been in 200 full-blown wars since the Cold War.
2. None of the military actions the USA has been involved with has had to do with religion. They were not holy wars. The same applies to Russia. So it's not in the right section. And neither Russia or the USA are considered to be irreligious/nonreligious.
3. I am looking at List of wars involving Russia and from 1991 to present, Russia appears to have been in 10+ wars.
