Operation Woodrose

I added Operation Woodrose to this template and it was reverted. I didn't realize this was controversial and that is why I added it before posting on the talk page. BilCat brought it to my attention that the Military of India denies the operation occurred, so I hoped someone could provide a reliable source for that. I think the issue over inclusion might have to do with the media blackout imposed on punjab at the time. Reliable sources say the operation occurred.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]^[13]

2001 India Bangladesh border skirmish

The incident took place between Border Security Force on Indian side and Bangladesh Rifles on Bangladesh side. Indian Army was nowhere involved. Then why this template consists of the link to that incident?--Vyom25 (talk) 13:40, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also Central Armed Police Force should not be on this template. They do not come under Military of India.--Vyom25 (talk) 13:45, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As I have not received a response. I am removing the above-mentioned links.--Vyom25 (talk) 11:46, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

'Internal' Annexations

Am I the only one who feels it's disingenuous to categorize 'Annexations' as 'Internal Conflicts,' when by definition to annex territory it had to have at the time been external to the annexing nation?

I propose removing the 'Internal Conflicts' heading entirely, making 'Annexations' and 'Insurgencies' each direct subcategories of 'Operations' alongside 'Wars' and 'External Conflicts.' 104.246.222.223 (talk) 21:43, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As no further comment was made on this in a week's time, I've gone ahead and implemented my proposal. 104.246.222.223 (talk) 16:57, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
