List of armed conflicts involving the United States

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This is a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of List of wars involving the United States. Although yes, there is technically a difference between an "armed conflict" and a "war", the line between the two is blurry and often politically charged. Rather than making a difficult and controversial decision on how to classify every conflict, it seems like the consensus has been to list them all as wars (see the pages in Category:Lists of wars by country).

Some of the content here might be worth merging with List of wars involving the United States, but a lot of it gives WP:WIKIVOICE to specific historical viewpoints and would need to be revised heavily first. SilverStar54 (talk) 01:11, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete The opening reads And lastly, as violence between the white people grew, so too did the revolutionary fervor of the African slaves in their quest for freedom through armed insurrection. What the hell?  Not exactly how it happened. Anyway, 1776 was when the United States of American came into existence, so listing things all the way back to 1521 makes no sense at all.

 * There weren't even colonies in that part of the continent yet. Heck Cartier had barely sailed into the St. Lawrence by that point... Quebec City was founded in 1608. Just no, this is... just no. Oaktree b (talk) 15:26, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Besides this article, there is a bit of redundant over-kill on the subject matter. I refer to the three navboxes at the bottom of the page. "American conflicts", "US military" and "Lists of wars involving North American countries". — Maile (talk) 02:32, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete: In addition the points brought up above, the purpose of this list appears to list pre-1776 defeats of European colonists for political purposes.
 * Delete: Subject appears to have severe POV issues and is a content fork as noted by other users. Let&#39;srun (talk) 14:39, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: There wasn't a Spanish conquistador from the United States of America in the 1500s. There wasn't even a United States until 200 yrs later. Some mishmash of OR and wishful thinking. Just wrong all over the place. Oaktree b (talk) 15:24, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
