R37M missiles operational history
[edit]Am I able to add the claims of the long range victory if I mention nothing about where it is supposed to have happened? The long range engagements are quite well sourced, including from the prestigious RUSI think tank and many western news outlets. It's also the top hit on google AI.

- No. By consensus, you are not allowed to edit on this topic until your account is extended confirmed, regardless of the details of the content; this is not a question of sourcing or anything personal to you but a policy position that the community has agreed upon based on widespread disruption from non-ECR editors in this space. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 14:35, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
- My intent was to avoid it becoming a Ukraine war topic and remain a technical discussion of the R37. Something along the lines of "The R37 has reportedly being deployed in long range air to air engagements by the Mig31 and SU57. RUSI claims that the weapon is employed at extreme ranges. Some reports claim the weapon has been employed beyond 200km however exact engagement ranges remain unconfirmed. Liger404 (talk) 00:25, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
- Right, but simply omitting mentioning that this deployment was in Ukraine doesn't make it any less the case. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 02:16, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
- That seems more strict than I believed the ban was tbh, but it's not easy to tell. The ban list was super long. Are you willing to write a section on it if a put a request through then? Or do you not find the sourcing acceptable? Liger404 (talk) 21:35, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
- Me personally no, but that's because I need to try and stay as uninvolved with the article's core content to be able to effectively do my responsibilities as an admin. The sanction does allow you to make an edit request on the talk page asking for someone to do it though. I was going to suggest looking at Wikipedia:Edit_requests#Making_requests which has all the info you'll need for how to format that -- but actually you have a bit of a rare scenario where none of the templates there actually specifically do what you need, because the page is not actually *technically* protected. So instead you should just go to the R-37 talk page and start a new section there called "edit request (date)" and post the suggested language there. It might take a while but eventually someone will pick it up. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 22:33, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
