I saw news[1] that South Sudan launched strikes against the Nuer White Army, which is an ally of the SPLM-IO. According to the "Faytuks Network"[2], South Sudan declared war on the group which I have seen some people claim as South Sudan effectively joining the war. Combined with the fighting between South Sudan and the RSF, and assuming this reporting is accurate, would this constitute expanding the map to include South Sudan and add them as a belligerent in the infobox?

I may be getting mixed up (mostly because reporting on African wars is not as robust and clear as elsewhere). But I have seen occasional reports of South Sudan working with RSF in some instances, fighting with them in other instances, and I recently saw something that made it seem like the Nuer White Army had some sort of relation with Sudan. I am unfamiliar with the nuances of the war but I made this topic because I have been seeing a lot of groups mentioned in the Portal:Current Events and on war update YouTube channels that mention groups that aren't listed in the infobox like the SPLM-IO and such.

@FuzzyMagma the page is becoming exceptionally too long. At this rate, the foreign involvement section will become an A-Z soup enticing editors to dump all kinds of foreign intervention (however benign), not to mention recent edits by a new editor that appear to compromise the quality of the article.

I can see that but WP:overtagging and not being constructive (or providing solutions or a discussion) about what need to be done, makes tagging useless; hence why I removed.
If it was you who did the tagging please put it back and give us and idea about what you think need to be trimmed, or we can discuss which part to make a separate article. But tagging and praying someone will fix it is not useful FuzzyMagma (talk) 16:37, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
See latest edits. I would like to inform you that I had also tried to have the article protected from a suspected vandal but got rejected as it was not seen as serious a few days ago. Borgenland (talk) 16:46, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to hear that. I will keep an eye out. With Khartoum liberation, the war became major news for a moment and I think this is why you saw these editors. Give it couple of week and they will disappear. FuzzyMagma (talk) 16:48, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I shorten some of the sections, not sure which points does address in your tag, but see below and remove the tags as appropriate
too long: We are now below what is considered long
undue weight: shorten most of sections. let me know if there still more.
level-5 vital article is rated B-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
