No consensus on American jan 6 coup[edit]
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[edit]
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)
Crimea 2014[edit]
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[edit]
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[edit]
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)
