[edit] Move the page?

There seems to be significant support for moving this article to a better title, but nobody really said what title they thought would be best, so I left it as it was. — CharlotteWebb 02:09, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

I suppose 1934 Saudi-Yemeni border conflict could be a possible alternate title, but I think the current title suffices as:
  1. It is shorter and less jumbled.
  2. All English-language sources I have encountered so far name it a "war" rather than anything else.
  3. There is nothing it could be mistaken for. There have been multiple conflicts between Saudi Arabia and Yemen (including a series of armed clashes in 1998 that left 20-50 people dead), but none of them were significant enough to be classified as a "war".

i agree with you , for the third reason specially. Ammar 02:29, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sana is not a coastal city!

Please correct the last paragraph in the article. You cannot send warships to Sana; it's not a coastal city!

Thank you for noticing this. It has been corrected. Black Falcon 16:00, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
