Odd edit on Syrian flag
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=West_Asia&diff=next&oldid=1261936099
I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean (yes, I understand the event, just not how it relates to this template). Khrom3ium seems to have made similar edits on other pages (e.g. Arab World, Middle East as well. Noting it here, someone can probably follow up. (I'm in the midst of trying to make sure articles use the correct Syrian flag for their respective topics.) - Jmabel | Talk 23:10, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Please ping me if you need me on this, I don't maintain a watchlist on en-wiki. - Jmabel | Talk 23:12, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Aha! I worked it out. See Template:Country data Syria. Probably not needed now, though: that is now the default Syrian flag. - Jmabel | Talk 23:18, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
#improperclassification
the list of countries in West Asia is sorted into recognized and unrecognized countries. Palestine is not a universally recognized country. Shouldn't it be put in unrecognized as it is in a gray zone per the classification guidelines? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:CATSPECIFIC&redirect=no JV-PFS (talk) 01:44, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
Cyprus is Asia ???
I know there is a lot of ignorance going around in the world, but people should know at least the basics. ALL MEDITERRANEAN ISLANDS BELONG TO EUROPE. I am not talking about little rocks here and there, I am talking about the islands you can see on the map. Cyprus is a member of the European Union. I guess the accept Asian countries now, ha ha. And, speaking of adding in the list countries that don't exist, just for propaganda purposes, we see, of course, the illegal North Cyprus pseudostate. Maybe this is the reason Cyprus was added here.Iathien (talk) 15:21, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
