This is a clear case of WP:CRYSTALBALL, when users create a military conflict page, based solely on a single declaration. So far, not even a single German soldier or ship or airplane has participated in the effort against ISIL. It is not even clear if there will be. So Germany announced it will join Operation Inherent Resolve, so what? Nothing happened so far to justify such a page. GreyShark (dibra) 17:01, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. The military operation will start in 2016. Stefanomione (talk) 17:07, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep The clear announcement of military intervention already constitutes an intervention by itself. Though the article fails to point that out, Germany has already intervened before by providing the Iraqi Peshmerga with weapons and training them. PanchoS (talk) 17:36, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep No valid reason given for deletion: this topic is clearly notable Nick-D (talk) 23:07, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree fully with the above. Ceannlann gorm (talk) 20:51, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: the topic appears to be notable, and I would imagine that the commencement of operations will result in the article being expanded. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 01:46, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
