Talk:War in Afghanistan

The result of the proposal was OK, I'm going to cut the slack here. The phrase War in Afghanistan is most commonly referred & linked to the ongoing war; it's admittedly a recentism, but one that apparently won't go away soon. Ergo, it should redirect to War in Afghanistan (2001–present). Per Ewlyahoocom and Dekimasu, this page will be moved to War in Afghanistan (disambiguation), because it is, at least currently, a dab page. Having a Military history of Afghanistan as a separate article is an appealing idea, but someone should write it first; before that Wars in Afghanistan will redirect to the dab page.

Nevertheless that disambig exists. I'll move Anglo-Afghan war (war in lowercase) from here to there. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 15:28, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

message: None of the linked articles are called "War in Afghanistan" - if anything it should be Afghan War, as most of the linked articles are variations on that. There's also the possibility of renaming as Military history of Afghanistan, and allowing expansion into a proper article. Jonathan Oldenbuck 13:53, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: RfC: Naming of these articles

message: Despite the heading "Modern-era conflicts" separating half the page, the vast majority of conflicts on this page are modern as opposed to ancient or Medieval. The only conflicts that aren't modern:
*Conquest of Afghanistan by Alexander the Great (330 BC – 327 BC)
*Muslim conquests of Afghanistan (637–709)
*Conquest of Afghanistan by the Mongol Empire (13th century), see Mongol conquest of Central Asia.
