1. Under the Companies section:

SpaceX is listed as donating StarLinks, but according to https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/spacex-curbed-ukraines-use-starlink-internet-drones-company-president-2023-02-09/ these were not meant as military, but humanitarian, aid. SpaceX claims to have enforced their use to solely humanitarian.

Philip Morris is listed as having donated 500 000 cigarettes. Cigarettes are not military aid.

Amazon is listed as having "Pledged $10 million in aid; using its logistics capability for supplies and cybersecurity expertise.", which also is not military aid.

Please remove them from the list.

2. In the map, several islands that belong to countries that have given aid are grey. Among these, some have a sort of self-governance. A majority don't have military forces or equipment of their own though, and if they do they are part of their country's forces. Military issues are handled at a national level. They should be marked according to their donor countries' aid.

Some examples: The Faroe Islands (Denmark), The Falkland Islands (United Kingdom), New Caledonia (France), Puerto Rico (United States), British Virgin Islands (United Kingdom), Guadeloupe (France), Dutch Caribbean (The Netherlands), and Cayman Islands (United Kingdom).

Ad 1: While SpaceX limited their use ind drone's, troops stil use Starlink for communicating which article mentions. Borysk5 (talk) 07:07, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Did you miss Amazon and Philip Morris?
SpaceX: It still is not military aid.
It seems likely those three companies are added to give them credit, not to list donors of _military_ aid.
I don't know how to arrange to reach a vote on Wikipedia, but that method seems good. 94.255.240.124 (talk) 07:00, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Using Starlink for troops to communicate is definietly a military aid, even if they don't want to call it that way. Borysk5 (talk) 13:16, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs to be repaired

We need volunteers to repair the damage caused by Uwdwadafsainainawinfi after this editor's copyright violations and removing properly sourced contents. At the same time, we need to preserve new military aid announcements from the past few weeks. Anyone interested? OhanaUnitedTalk page 13:13, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Finished cleaning up Spain's copyright violation contents added by Uwdwadafsainainawinfi (who is now permanently blocked). I need assistance for other countries as Spain cleanup alone took me more than 30 mins (and Spain didn't donate a lot).

Number of Krab SPGs in Ukraine

The number of the Krab SPGs donated by Poland to Ukraine is too low - it states only 1 battalion (18 vehicles), where we know from Oleksii Reznikov that at least 3 battalions (54 vehicles) were delivered.

Replace the image at the top of the article with https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Delivering_military_aid_to_Ukraine_-_detailed.svg, an SVG file of the exact same information.

A legend is also required:

  Delivered heavy weapons to Ukraine
  Delivered light weapons or ammunition to Ukraine
  Delivered non-lethal material military aid to Ukraine
  Delivered non-material military aid to Ukraine
  Ukraine

Reasoning for this change: an SVG is much easier to update. It can be done by anyone. Additionally, it can manipulated or exported to any format and at any resolution.

Request for addition for Ireland

Sentence "30 Irish soldiers will participate in training of Ukrainian Armed Forces in demining and clearing ordnance [From May 2023 onwards]." should be updated to reflect that the training includes basic weapons training and leadership.

I suggest rewording as "30 Irish soldiers will participate in training of Ukrainian Armed Forces in basic military skills, leadership training, drill instructor training, combat medicine, demining and explosive disposal. [From Apr 2023 onwards]"

The training is from April and not May. In Apr, mine clearance training was provided in Cyprus. In Jun, combat medic training provided to 51 Ukrainian soldiers in Germany.

I attach the following articles https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3751236-ireland-to-provide-training-for-ukrainian-military.html https://www.rte.ie/news/2023/0820/1400682-neutrality/ https://www.thejournal.ie/ukraine-army-training-irish-defence-forces-neutrality-6146360-Aug2023/ https://www.thejournal.ie/irish-troops-eu-ukraine-eumam-6000801-Feb2023/ https://www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2023/08/18/irish-troops-to-provide-weapons-training-to-ukraine-despite-governments-non-lethal-assistance-pledge/ https://www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2023/07/11/irish-combat-medics-return-from-training-ukrainian-troops-in-germany/

The two Irish Times articles refer to mine clearance equipment. Ireland has two Aardvark mine clearance vehicles which it is considering sending. Perhaps add a "Engineering equipment" section to mention this. Finestat (talk) 18:23, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of military aid to Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian WarMilitary aid to Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian War – The current list format is limiting. The article itself has to try working around it (see section "Military aid planning"). It would make much more sense to write a mostly prose article with lists added in as needed.

You would lose a vast majority of the information if you altered the formatting of the article so radically. Some of the national aid efforts is either to numerous or small for a non list summarisation to be viable or necessary, The US and Colombia as respective examples. I believe the change being proposed would be a massive misstep for the preservation of information. A separate article on the chronology of foreign aid being approved and the political situations which has allowed and constrained the donation of military aid makes more sense and wouldn't be at the expense of the information in the current article.

Then would a WP:SPLIT be better? HappyWith (talk) 18:34, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It would depend, I believe there should absolutely be an exhaustive list of every nation's military aid to Ukraine, having the US, German, Australian etc contributions be on different articles makes no sense. Panzerpampfpony (talk) 20:35, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Aid provided

Under "aid provided" I see this: Philip Morris International; Donated 500,000 packs of cigarettes to the Ukrainian military; 1 March 2022

I mean, seriously, since when is this aid? I would rather call it an attempt, an abuse, to get more people hooked on their product!

Also it would be nice if we could see money-wise which part of all the "aid" was truly given, which part came through lend-lease, and which part also gave an economic impulse to the economy or business of the so-called "beneficiary".
