What a mess!

This article is a mess. Apart from poorly sourced, it tries to link and mix the authentic Libyan resistance movement/war against Italian colonization (1911-1931 or 1934) with the Western Desert Campaign, wich was part of the North African Campaign of the Second World War, and had no Libyan resistance movement presence. Also, even the 1911-1930's resistance could and had been divided by authors in two: The First Italo-Senussi War (1911 or 1914-1917) -wich was also part of the 1st World War- (sources: First Italo-Sanusi War 1914-1917, Italy and Arab Resistance, THE SANUSI OF CYRENAICA) and the Second Italo-Senussi War (1923-1932) (sources: THE SANUSI OF CYRENAICA, Colonial War: The Second Italo-Sanusi War (1923-31), Senussi). Even the editor contradicts itself when in the infobox prolonged the dates to the mid 1940's but in the text recognizes that the Libyan resistance movement was "practically non-existent" (you can take off without problems the "practically"). And what to say about the claim of a "new resistance" in the end on World War II...any source about it or we have to believe it blindly?.--HCPUNXKID (talk) 18:14, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Navbox

I personally think that the navbox at the bottom of the page may be too broad and should either be replaced or removed from the article. Any thoughts? Zhangj1079 (T|C) 01:35, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
