"national unity" agreement on 23 July

In the events of said date, a ' "national unity" agreement ' is hyperlinked to no article. I believe the article for said agreement is already created, under the title "2024 Beijing Declaration", but I do not qualify for the editing of this article, thus I cannot link it myself.

Mostly relies on single source

This article mostly relies upon Al Jazeera, with only a small minority of the references being other sources. We should try to diversify the sources we use in this article. Gödel2200 (talk) 01:49, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why does this timeline not begin with Oct 7?

Seems wrong no? 147.161.166.169 (talk) 10:05, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The timeline is split up into several parts, as shown in the top right of the article. This article covers events beginning on 13 July 2024; for the first part of the timeline that starts on 7 Oct. 2023, see Timeline of the Israel–Hamas war (7 October – 27 October 2023).

Proposal to add One Source template

Proposal to add One Source template, pending likely discussion on the use of Al Jazeera in this article, as a concerning proportion of references are to Al Jazeera. While Template:One_source says the template "should only be used for encyclopedic content which has a verified, cited source, but only the one source", in practice the template is used also for articles/sections with more than one source that still heavily depend on one source. Placeholderer (talk) 22:19, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To be pedantic, the section variant of the template could be used for sections like 8 August that do rely entirely on Al Jazeera, but that would be a lot more work. When the article is a bunch of bullet points, and most bullet points have only a single source, and most of the time that single source is the same (Al Jazeera), I think having the article variant of the template is appropriate Placeholderer (talk) 22:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like we need a customized template to say something to the effect of "many of the bullets rely on a single source that does not give a complete picture". See for example these edits

where I added details from other references to the incomplete report from Al Jazeera. The Mountain of Eden (talk) 13:40, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I support the creation of a more specific template, but wouldn't know how to do it myself. I might tweak that phrasing to be "that may not give", though Placeholderer (talk) 17:46, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently the template {{One source}} can be used with customized text. I therefore replaced the {{POV}} template with the {{One source}} template. Feel free to wordsmith the exact wording. The Mountain of Eden (talk) 18:05, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Footnote for the daily casualty count

Note that the math in which Israel estimated 17,000 dead militants on the day that the Gaza health ministry reported a 40,005 combined death figure gives a ratio of 42.5% of the total death figure as militants. I purposefully rounded down the percentage to 40% since Israel's number is only an estimate, whereas the Gaza Health ministry (at least claims to be) accurate down to the last digit.
And just to preempt any challenges of WP:SYNTH, I am invoking WP:CALC. The Mountain of Eden (talk) 02:48, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
