Talk:2011–2012 Strait of Hormuz dispute

An awfully big article for something that hasn't happened yet (or you could argue that it has been going on since the Iranian revolution). Wikipedia is not a current affairs website so I move for deletion or reversion to Userspace until things resolve themselves. On a personal note, I have actually been at the sharp end of things at the Musandam Peninsula. Namely the airfield at Khasab with two SEPECAT Jaguar aircraft of the Royal Air Force of Oman.Petebutt (talk) 04:26, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I tend to think that it is an finite incident with long-term issues and therefore needs coverage. Marcd30319 (talk) 18:23, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Is this truly an ongoing dispute or an isolated incident?
I am wondering about the underlying premise that this specific dispute is an ongoing event or that it ended on February 14, 2012 when that American-British-French naval flotilla transited the Strait of Hormuz. The subsequent events outlined after February 14, 2012 seem less germane to the proximate cause of the crisis regarding the carrier Stennis's transit of the Strait of Hormuz and the initial Iranian demands about its return to the Persian Gulf. If so, why not move the naval activities after the February 14th date to the Consequences section, and split this section into two sub-sections, one for oil prices and the other on naval activities? Thank you. Marcd30319 (talk) 18:23, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Ongoing?
2011-2012 is ongoing? Also the dispute section needs a rewrite so it isnt just 'date - thing happened, date 2 thing happened', it's really poor as it stands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victoriosissimus (talk • contribs) 10:00, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
