message: A request! If there's anyone out there with some decent information on this, could they add the signatories to the treaty to this article.

thread_title: Request: signatories

message: The article mentions that "bombing from the air" is prohibited by the convention but the description of the particular sections of the treaty seems to imply that only bombing from balloons is prohibited, not any all air bombing. If all "bombing from the air" was indeed prohibited then this would make all the bombs dropped from planes during WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, Iraq War, etc. Illegal under international law. I have never heard that position argued. This needs to be cleared up. --Cab88 14:37, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not too sure about this one; perhaps someone has the text of the treaty or a good summary handy?  There wasn't much in the way of planes in 1899, so that may not have been anticipated.  As for whether this would prohibit the aerial bombings in wars since then, that's a moot point, since the 1907 convention superseded the 1899 convention among countries who ratified it, and the 1907 one contained no section prohibiting aerial bombing of any sort, effectively repealing that section of the 1899 one. --Delirium 21:58, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The first airplane bombing was made by Italians in 1911 in Lybia, during the Italo-Turks war. In 1907 only bombing from baloons was performed. Bubu 2013-01-01 22:31 CET  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.181.210.215 (talk)

Thanks for trying 206.170.111.2, but the link is to the Hague Convention on the Abduction of Children, a late 20th century convention. Would still be interested if anyone is able to provide information on the signatories. Brianpie 21:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: abandoned article

message: This isn't much more than a listing of the sections of the conventions and a couple of associated names and dates.  There is no mention of what the sections state, which countries were involved, what the reactions were to the conventions and how the signatories kept to the conventions. 199.91.34.33 (talk) 23:19, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Hardly an article

message: 1st Hague Convention was called on Russian initiative russian wiki segment says. If it is true it must be remarked if not i would fix russian article.
Also who proposed to call 2nd? --VetMax (talk) 12:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Who called meetings?

message: The article states that the convention was violated in WWI with the use of chemical weapons; however, the convention prohibited "Projectiles with the Sole Object to Spread Asphyxiating Poisonous Gases". The first chemical weapons used in WWI were tear gases.  These did not violate the convention. Second, Germany opened canisters of asphyxiating poisonous gases, but these were not in projectiles. Lastly, poisonous gases were put in projectiles, but by that time at least one country that was not a party had joined the war and the convention only applies when every combatant is a party to it. Zginder 2013-10-10T01:04:39Z
The first non-party to join the war was San Marino on June 3 1915. Zginder 2013-10-10T02:36:30Z
:I am glad someone else did the research on this the cited source to support the inclusion of the sentence supports your interpretation not the current sentence:

thread_title: Chemical warfare in WWI did not violate Hague convention

message: The Royal Navy's blockade of Germany from 1914 to 1919 was clearly illegal under the Hague Convention of 1907. (109.158.178.212 (talk) 22:35, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: What is your point? Are you suggesting that this be incorporated into this section of the article? If so, we need sources that suggest what you state. Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:44, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Multiple books on the First World War have stated that the blockade was definitely illegal under international law. (109.158.178.212 (talk) 23:40, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Removed leaning section on Korea/Japan treaty section. Had leaning/NPOV language and was shoehorned in with one, running all-bold paragraph from a newly created account. Account seems to only have been created to make this addition and went quiet. Aside from lack of neutrality, no citations/references were made to verify any of the claims made in said paragraph. Only path for reference were made via circular reference and not strongly.
If a more experienced editor feels this is in error, please feel free to undo my edit and let me know. 
Cheers.
