How many make a "war"?[edit]

Does the Dodge City thing really qualify as a "War"? IT seems as if it's probably too small a conflict for that classification. Liberty5651 (talk) 23:04, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would also question the "pseudo-wars", such as Huéscar or Three Hundred and Thirty Five Years' War. We should probably divide the list in two: the wars with bloodless military actions and the wars with no actual military operations.--Le Petit Chat (talk) 23:08, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Those aren't quite the same thing. They're remarkable and they belong on this page, but shouldn't be classified the same as The Aroostook War or The Honey War. It looks like a few additional classifications, then: one for real military involvement (The Aroostook War), one for unresolved politics (Huéscar), and one for large societal conflicts that resemble mob action (Dodge City War).

Fake[edit]

Are any wars fake? Or war declarations fake? 41.58.207.194 (talk) 18:32, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
