Splitting

This has gotten so long and convoluted that splitting it into two or three separate campaignboxes may be a good idea at this point. Kirill 00:17, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The war is over 500 years long - its only natural that it be long. Any splitting will wrongly imply that the war was only a series of crushing Arab victories stopped finally at Constantinople - something that I strongly opposed and helped initiate the article to become GA. Its also why I made
Byzantine-Arab Wars (780 - 1180)
. Leave me a message at my talk page please if you have any ideas.

Re: Byzantine-Arab Wars template

In response to a message I received from

Byzantine-Arab Wars (780 - 1180) already covers the battles anyway, having so many links for non-existent articles is a bit pointless in my opinion. I think we should only include those later battles on the template only after some seperate articles for them are created. Jagged 85 (talk) 01:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply

Its not pointless because as I have said earlier on its about showing the reader that the Arabs did not have it their way all the time.

I've now renamed the "Later Conflicts" to "Later Byzantine Campaigns" to show that Byzantines were on the offensive in the later conflicts. Jagged 85 (talk) 04:29, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

formatting issue

There is a formatting issue with this box. When inserted into a page it puts the remaining text into it self --Johnleeds1 (talk) 22:13, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
