5th-generation warfare
I've copied the following comment from my talk page to here, since it involves the article, and not just me. It follows this addition to the article and my revert with edit summary of Rv "5th Gen"; source?. --A&#8239;D&#8239;Monroe&#8239;III(talk) 14:48, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

I'll have the references for Fifth-Generation Warfare in 6 months (I'm actually writing a thoroughly-documented book about it). In the meantime I'll refrain from editing that page. Thanks for your guidance! Kashifv (talk) 06:43, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I should note that Wikipedia has limits on what can be used as reliable sources. A newly published book by an otherwise unknown author may not qualify.  --A&#8239;D&#8239;Monroe&#8239;III(talk)  17:37, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

There is a couple of issues with this Fifth-Generation Warfare. This term is from 2009. One source is from 2009 and one is from 2010 and one is from 2019 ( made by not some expert or specialist or so, in that topic). After 10/11 years that term is coined I don't see to this got "wide" acceptance in scholar works, academic sources etc also about support or by criticsm. Also there is something called "fourth gen. warfare" and even that term is under criticism but there is many works and sources about that. If after 10 or 11 years this term did not get some wide attention it should be removed totally or put with a few sentences as a note under the fourth generation warfare to some authors claim to there is that term, but even from sources I saw to exsitance of it is doubtful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.101.184.162 (talk) 00:40, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

 * I think, some theory to become accepted and included here, need wide but really wide acceptance by the academic community and experts in this field, (the best is by long established experts with name recognition) especially if it is a new one. And to have encyclopedic value. We don't promote original works or new concepts, no matter how some author/s wish to they get some recognition it does not work in that way by promoting it here to get some recognition.
