Infobox

Apart from cosmetic changes, I’ve made the following changes to the infobox

Added ^{[citation needed]} tags to some of the less obvious pro-Hadi combatants; not all these militias are involved in every battle and some are mutually hostile, but we should be able to find sources for them
Added Southern Resistance and Tihamah Resistance with sources
Removed for the time being coalition combatants not mentioned in sources dealing with this offensive; the link to the page on foreign intervention covers the possibility that they are involved, but we may never know for certain what roles (if any) these countries are playing (this article touches on the issue: https://www.hrw.org/news/2017/09/08/yemen-hiding-behind-coalitions-unlawful-attacks)

We should work on finding sources to verify the participation of the various pro-Hadi groups, and possibly reinstate the removed coalition members. Cabut.sidney (talk) 23:21, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Al Hudaydah governorate offensive

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Al Hudaydah governorate offensive's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "wsj2":

From Hodeida International Airport: Nissenbaum, Dion; Stancati, Margherita (June 13, 2018). "Yemeni Forces, Backed by Saudi-Led Coalition, Launch Assault on Country's Main Port". The Wall Street Journal. Archived from the original on June 13, 2018. Meanwhile, Saudi state television on Wednesday reported that Yemeni ground troops were a few miles away from Hodeidah's airport.
From Battle of Al Hudaydah: Nissenbaum, Dion; Stancati, Margherita (13 June 2018). "Yemeni Forces, Backed by Saudi-Led Coalition, Launch Assault on Country's Main Port". The Wall Street Journal. Archived from the original on 13 June 2018.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 19:14, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
