Talk:International relations with the Taliban

Article sources...

edit

The article on the Taliban is much too large, at currently 375kb. This article is a copy-paste of the "International relations" section od that article. Note that I simply copy-pasted the content, and added a blurb header; at 80kb,this is likely still too large, but better. The idea would be to add a blurb to the Taliban article (for the International relations), and then link to this one, once it is accepted. Eptalon (talk) 06:58, 11 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please see [1] for a history of the Taliban page, from where this was copied; note this is the history of the whole page, not necessarily the section that was copied. Eptalon (talk) 07:11, 11 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in International relations with the Taliban

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of International relations with the Taliban's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Webster University Press Book":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 12:10, 11 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

The orphaned references on the first 3 articles (War in Afghanistan (2001–2021), Northern Alliance, Afghanistan) have been fixed; the orphaned on the last article "Taliban" was originally fixed, but later split to another "History of the Taliban" article on 26 June 2024, where the Massoud's references were replaced by another Steve Coll (2005) book. If you would like to make adjustment in the context with the Marcela Grad (2009) book, please feel free to apply any existing book note format (or the one in the first three articles as examples) to make edits, or send a request on its Discussion page in details for other editors' help when available. Have a great day! Mickie-Mickie (talk) 16:41, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Has China officially recognised the Taliban?

edit

As far as I know, the acceptance of credentials does not signify formal recognition of the "Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan". (https://www.rferl.org/a/china-taliban-afghan-ambassador/32591143.html) Vnsg304 (talk) 09:57, 27 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
