Change the year for Reference #27 (Marquand) to 2009. Currently it is incorrectly listed as 1009. Coolmanjack25 (talk) 03:26, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

White phosphorus weapon
[edit]iam surprised no one mentioned the english used it against kurdish after ww1 and Turkish force used it in massacre and genocide of Afrin in syria. 220.245.106.114 (talk) 17:30, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
Use of phosporus munitions by Russia, Iraq and others
[edit]The article covers US and Israel, but does not cover the use of such weapons by Russia, Iraq and other countries, which creates a one-sided view. It would be good to add these sections. 84.127.85.203 (talk) 12:20, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- Russia is mentioned already, in connection with the First Chechen War and Second Chechen War, as well the Syrian Civil War. Iraq could be added. Brandmeistertalk 19:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
White phosphorus munition or munitions?
[edit]I see that this page was moved from the plural to the singular in August 2024, with no explanation given, and there seems to be nothing in the talk page about it.
I think the plural title is better English, and it's the form used in the text of the article.
As this article seems to be very controversial and highly protected, I hesitate to boldly move it. Could someone explain to me why the singular is the better title? Pinging @Hyphenation Expert: who moved it. PamD 23:14, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- Not seeing any outstanding exception to WP:SINGULAR for weapons, e.g., in Category:Incendiary weapons, Precision-guided munition, Loitering munition, Cluster munition, Atomic demolition munition, etc. Hyphenation Expert (talk) 23:23, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Better copy of photo available
[edit]Would someone with edit privileges be able to swap the first photo under World War I, the inter-war period and World War II (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Phosphorus_explosion.gif) with the higher-res version available at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Night_attack_with_phosphorus_bombs_in_maneuvers._First_Corps_School._Gondrecourt,_France._-_NARA_-_530741.tif? one🍪cookie 13:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
