message: There are inconsistencies in the page on time between 12h style and 24h style.  I suggest edits to make consistent across and specifically recommend 24h being superior for the purposes of both the narratives and the thematic content Hans K Pauley (talk) 14:37, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

text: I have been trying this and discussed this with several sources in a previous discussion. I’m not sure why but Wikipedia editors seem to have an allergy to admitting Israel lost anything. Even the Hebrew Wikipedia admits that Egypt’s front was inconclusive The Great Mule of Eupatoria (talk) 04:05, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

message: To fix grammar in the Disengagement section of the article, I recommend adding a comma to change "After the failed conference Henry Kissinger started conducting shuttle diplomacy, meeting with Israel and the Arab states directly." to "After the failed conference, Henry Kissinger started conducting shuttle diplomacy, meeting with Israel and the Arab states directly."

message: The article is about 22,000 words readable prose. This is far beyond the upper limit of WP:SIZERULE. Any article should be readable in a single reasonable length sitting per WP:CANYOUREADTHIS. Subsections is not a cure for this; an encyclopedia caters to people who know nothing or little about a subject, and need an overview. However complex an many faceted an article subject is, is not an excuse for excessively long articles; they can always be made more concise, with additional articles made for detailed aspects.

thread_title:  Article length 

message: I believe some parts of this article should be rewritten so they are not just copied from "The Yom Kippur War" by Abraham Rabinovich. Most notably this part is word-for-word from the book and quite awkward, in my opinion: 
On the night of 25 September, Hussein secretly flew to Tel Aviv to warn Meir of an impending Syrian attack. "Are they going to war without the Egyptians, asked Mrs. Meir. The king said he didn't think so. 'I think they [Egypt] would cooperate.' Shlokie (talk) 11:20, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
