Odd choice of title. Are we presuming that the Taliban will undertake only one such attack this year? Cabayi (talk) 17:22, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, this is why I'm now proposing a move. --Lynchprawn (talk) 16:17, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Maidan Shar attack → Wardak intelligence base attack – (This title or anything similar) - Surely there have been other attacks in Maidan Shar since the war started in 2001. The title needs to be much more specific. Also I think "Wardak" is more notable because I have noticed the province name being mentioned more in the media than "Maidan Shar", which is the town it took place in.
