Category talk:Battles of the 2003 Iraq conflict

Untitled
Three things:


 * It would be nice if we could arrange these in time order rather than by alphabetical order.


 * It would be nice if we could add an icon next to each battle to indicate Coalition, Iraqi, or an unclear victory.


 * Why is this called "...of the 2003 Iraq conflict"? It is (1) the Iraq War, and (2) isn't there a better way of showing the difference between this war and other Iraq wars than indexing it to 2003? I mean the war has dragged on until 2007, so maybe we can call it the Early-21st Century Iraq War? Man that name is horrible too... I don't really have an answer to what would be a better name, but hopefully someone else does.

If you go to Iraq Military Operations 2003 to Current - Alphabetical each column can be sorted in ascending or descending order. I never thought about the flag thing but I will look into that. Additionally I agree a name change might be appropriate. --Kumioko 12:11, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I do not agree with the suggestion to make this category for battles only because most of these battles have one or more operations that relate to it that I know of and the rest probably do also we just don't know the names of the operations. Also, If we do that then we would need to create a new cat for Operations --Kumioko 12:11, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Moving this category
I do not agree with moving this category. There are many operations that are not battles. Some are humanitarian missions to provide food, medicine or services to the Iraqi people, some are classifications (such as the ones for Canadian, British or australian participation) and some are simple searches or security operations were no or limited fighting occured.--Kumioko 00:17, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * As noted at the nom, non-combat operations can be put at Category:Military operations of the 2003 Iraq conflict. Superm401 - Talk 11:47, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
