Talk:List of coups and coup attempts by country

No consensus on American jan 6 coup

No consensus have been reached on the many discussion pages about whether this is counted as a coup or not (though I think it is obvious if it is or not), therefore it should not be listed until a proper consensus is reached. 103.244.228.42 (talk) 06:33, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

Agreed it shouldn't be added until a consensus is reached, especially with all the footage that was released raising speculation and debate. 49.188.220.81 (talk) 08:15, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Sudan

Should we include the current Sudan conflict that started on 15 April, or is it like a civil war, or something else? Redoct87 (talk) 20:14, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

Civil war M Waleed (talk) 12:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Crimea 2014

Not sure if this was overlooked or prior discussion concluded that it wasn't a coup. Sources exist to say that legislators voted to secede at gunpoint fwiw. Elinruby (talk) 03:25, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Russia

Should the wagner rebellion count as an attempted coup? 122.104.176.109 (talk) 04:40, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

Its status as a coup is disputed; most sources are of the opinion that they weren't attempting to actually overthrow the government. — Czello ^(music) 07:57, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

Discrepancy between US and Brazil

US' part has episodes before and after its independence. Brazil's has no mention of episodes before its independence and between independence and the proclamation of the republic. Some are very meaningful like the Inconfidência Mineira, many black led revolts against the portuguese colonial government, and the Revolução Farroupilha. Finally, Jânio Quadros also attempted a coup by trying to declare war on Guyana. 2804:14C:6588:848B:65D6:E013:1A9:4C67 (talk) 03:25, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Another case missing in Brazil is this one: https://brasil.elpais.com/brasil/2016/11/16/politica/1479334136_607244.html 2804:14C:6588:848B:844A:ABB0:D491:BAE6 (talk) 05:34, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Maybe this should be added: https://piaui.folha.uol.com.br/materia/vou-intervir/ 2804:14C:6588:848B:844A:ABB0:D491:BAE6 (talk) 05:37, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Another possible addition is the interstate higways blockades after Bolsonaro lost: https://www.poder360.com.br/brasil/12-estados-tiveram-estradas-bloqueadas-contra-eleicao-de-lula/ 2804:14C:6588:848B:844A:ABB0:D491:BAE6 (talk) 05:52, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
