War Mapper

Mapping and writing about conflicts.

A Russian MoD map has been leaked. Even though we know its inaccurate, understanding the way its wrong can allow you to still use the information to understand the wider conflict more clearly.

I'm not sure I follow what this test proves...

You have one post that is:
About a highly divisive war, the content of which is fake which fills replies with people pushing back (engagement), people that trust your credibility or want it to be true share it (engagement), and has a video that holds view time (engagement).

Vs

A simple minor map update to a conflict (unfortunately) many are uninterested in.

Stands to reason the former gets more range.

I'd also take the posts down now the test is run. It harms your credibility for people that don't spot the clarification.

@justincbzz Many such cases

@Seb_Masson_ Belle carte, j'aime la simplicité. Y'en a trop des cartes surchargées.

@Archer83Able To be fair, remember the last big offensive in Yemen. Within a week, the STC took most of the country, then collapsed and ceased to exist.

It can feel like bases in Mali are captured by insurgents fairly regularly, but very little progress is made overall.
Here's why that is👇

@Deadly_Disco If anyone reads the post an thinks there's anything vague when both war and conflict are used that's on them.

You are more than welcome to stick to what AI tells you and I will stick to standard definitions.

I am arguing that both war and conflict are valid terms for what is happening.

War is a good term to use, and I use it. Conflict is as well. There can be more than one correct word to describe something.

UN (other than your links that repeatedly use the word conflict already):

@Deadly_Disco A quick search shows the UN, the British and American Governments have all used both War and Conflict.

AI summaries of which word to use are all well and good, but international use of more terms than war is easy to find.

You're assigning a stance to me that I don't hold

[War Mapper @War_Mapper]

@Deadly_Disco I use "War" repeatedly in the post, and the phrase full-scale invasion.

If you've only seen "conflict" used to defend Russia, that's a failure of those authors.

Conflict is a standard term for war and is used correctly in the article.

@_Relinquere I remember seeing one for Sudan, but other than the Libya one in the article its all been West Africa. Nothing for the Horn of Africa or Myanmar either

After seeing more and more AI maps come up on my feed this month, I've written up some of the ways you can identify them.
