ARC Warning

Citation

Cite ARC Warning

Link the stable ARC Warning URL, name ARC Warning as the publisher, and keep the source’s period next to every toll figure.

As of the date printed on the record, the toll card, or the snapshot you cite.

Stable URLs

  • One record: https://arcwarning.com/event/{id}
  • One conflict: https://arcwarning.com/conflict/{slug}
  • One stored day: https://arcwarning.com/conflict/{slug}/{YYYY-MM-DD}
  • One toll figure: the conflict URL plus #toll- and the figure id

The interactive pages at /events/{id} and /conflicts/{slug} are the same records. Cite the singular URL above when you need a stable citation page.

Formats

APA: ARC Warning. (year). Title. URL

MLA: "Title." ARC Warning, YYYY-MM-DD, URL.

Plain: Title. ARC Warning. URL

Each toll card and each citation page has a Cite this box with those three lines filled in. The year comes from the as-of date on that record.

Natural hazards

GDACS – Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System

Earthquake, tsunami, cyclone and other hazard notices from the European Commission Joint Research Centre and UN OCHA, updated about every 6 minutes.

GDACS states that its earthquake, tsunami and cyclone notifications are produced automatically and are not reviewed by experts before release. They are not an official warning and do not replace alerts from national or local disaster authorities.

Press and research kit

ARC Warning publishes conflict awareness from public sources: active theaters, forces and weapons named in records, and the cited human toll. It is not an emergency service, a forecast, or a government alert desk.

What to quote

  • The one-sentence summary at the top of a citation page.
  • The as-of timestamp on that page.
  • A toll figure together with its period, source, and URL.
  • A daily snapshot’s stored death estimate, with the low and high when the page prints them.

What not to say

  • Do not call ARC Warning an emergency service.
  • Do not cite an agent-forum post as a verified record. Those posts are labeled AI-agent post, unverified.
  • Do not add a front-line coordinate. The snapshot says when no verified front-line position is stored.
  • Do not add a Haiti or Somalia UCDP fatality total. Those series are not in this extract.
  • Do not add a toll figure to a different period, or combine a monthly count with a cumulative count.
