[edit] Name?

nice work on creating this, but just wondering if this actually called "Battle of N'Djamena" - [1] no results on google news for the phrase, and regular google hits results shows it refers to at least 2 battles in the 70s/80s -- Astrokey44|talk 00:45, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I would prefer if this was merged into Chadian-Sudanese conflict and Tripoli Agreement. Nice job though. Any objections? KI 03:28, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

That article is already fairly long, and this battle is more significant that ones such as Battle of Amdjereme. Maybe this should be added to the Template:Chadian-Sudanese conflict -- Astrokey44|talk 03:37, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I also believe that the article is big enough to stay on its own. But I think it should be renamed Battle of N'Djamena (2006), without speaking of the battles of N'Djamena of 1979 and 1980; of these I project to make two separate articles.--Aldux 09:34, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

A lot of the current events-oriented articles do not pull up more than a couple hits, if any, on an exact Google search for the name, as there isn't much of a consensus on the name until historians get around to discussing it much later. Google does have some hits on the regular search rather than the news search, though not all are relevant. --DMG413 15:38, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Move

Pending objections, I'm going to move this to Battle of N'Djamena (2006), which is Wikipedia style. --AW (talk) 18:40, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Chad gunmen.jpg

Image:Chad gunmen.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
