Hello, I just saw this article you have created and I'm confused to what events you're writing about. The title says its 2023–present but the content is mostly background information from the years before. You also titled it as "political crisis".

The current crisis, which is not just political, didn't start in 2023 but rather in 2019 (even that is probably inaccurate since we have been having troubles since the 70s). What I propose is changing the title to "Lebanese political crisis (2019–present)" which would include the banking crisis, currency crisis, electricity crisis, medical crisis, refugee crisis etc. which would better represent the issues that have been happening. You also spoke about Hezbollah in great detail even going way before 2023 but there are other actors involved. But good work anyways, I can tell it took you a while.

:Hello @Prodrummer619,I really appreciate your feedback, comments, and the compliments! It honestly took me a fair bit of time to pull it all together, so thanks for noticing. Based on your suggestions, I'm thinking of adding sections on the banking crisis, currency crisis, electricity crisis, medical crisis, and refugee crisis. Do you reckon there’s anything else I should include? Also, if you’ve got any solid sources that could help me out, I'd love to hear them. And by the way, are there any articles you reckon should be linked to this one? Thank you! KiltedKangaroo (talk) 07:42, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the references in Iranian underground missile bases, I just wanted to explain my initial revert. The article has been targeted for a couple of years by editors wanting to add entries to that table using nothing other than something looking suspicious on Google maps, or other questionable sources. I spent sometime last year looking for other sources with out much sucess. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 12:20, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

:Thanks for clarifying - you were absolutely right (not that you needed my confirmation). I hadn't realised the article's background, so that context is really helpful. When I first adjusted the table I intended to add citations, but something else drew my attention and I only just returned to it. In any case, I really appreciate the explanation, hope we cross paths again some day. Cheers! KiltedKangaroo (talk) 13:07, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
