Somalia state maps

Hi Siirski, while Somaliland has been essentially independent for a few decades, most maps continue to depict it as part of Somalia, and removing it wholesale from Somalia maps is not in line with WP:NPOV. Your edits to replace Somalia state maps with ones lacking Somaliland also do not mention this fundamental change in the edit summaries, which is not in line with WP:SUMMARYNO. With these considerations in mind, I would like to ask you to self-revert on these map changes, and seek a wider consensus on how exactly to reflect the Somaliland situation in these maps. Best, CMD (talk) 15:58, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Chipmunkdavis:, Please have a look at this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puntland where a similar pattern is happening, where this user removed the map of Somalia wholesale and preventing users from reverting it back to normal. It looks like this user has not self reverted and is instead edit-waring. Please have a look at the said article. Nakamoto43 (talk) 20:39, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Chipmunkdavis:, thank you for the information, but i used Openstreetmap. Wikipedia already use, if you look the map of Somaliland you will see Somaliland shared border with Somalia not inside in Somalia. --Siirski (talk) 16:16, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

HI Siirski, Openstreetmap is user-generated and not a reliable source. Even if it was, our articles should reflect the WP:WEIGHT given by the overall corpus of sources. For example, in the standard orthographic map set for countries, uncontrolled territories are marked by light green, rather than being removed completely. CMD (talk) 16:26, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Now i will revented old ver of Federal States of Somalia maps. Many Thanks Siirski (talk) 16:36, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Nakamoto43:, You have to stop making false claims it is clear that if you look at the page of history. I think that you are the same User:Abdiaziz23 I will report you next. --Siirski (talk) 21:49, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, that's very much appreciated. Regarding the ping from Nakamoto43, issues specific to the Puntland article should be discussed on that article's talkpage. CMD (talk) 09:36, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned ref

Thanks for creating Template:Largest cities of Somaliland. One of the references, tageo, is orphaned, meaning that it isn't defined anywhere in the page and therefore shows up as an error. Could you please fix this? Thanks. Feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:06, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I checked some of the references and they didn't support the population figures given in the template. I'd also be interested in knowing where you got the code to create this template, Siirski, given that you've recreated something that was originally created by a now-banned editor. Cordless Larry (talk) 18:43, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Cordless Larry:, Somalia and Somaliland do not have an official number for their residents, so i took from there articles pages. And about the code i took from Template:Largest cities of Somalia. --Siirski (talk) 19:58, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I see. In that case, I suggest that you check that the figures are all supported by the sources before using the template. Wikipedia articles shouldn't be used as sources (and if they have incorrect figures, they should ideally be corrected too). Cordless Larry (talk) 20:02, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Cordless Larry:, I will make sure all numbers are backed up by sources before using the template. Thank you --Siirski (talk) 20:10, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Somaliland Districts

Hello @Siirski:,

Since you seem to know a lot about map making etc., is it possible for you to make maps of Salahley, Baligubadle, Badhan, Dhahar and Garadag districts? I'll make the articles when I'm done with my research.

Many thanks,

Dabaqabad (talk) 13:05, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Dabaqabad:, thank you for leaving the message

I heard about these districts, but the problem is that their boundaries are not clear. If you have some maps that would help or any information, please don't hesitate to let me know.--Siirski (talk) 13:42, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Siirski:,

These are the boundaries of Badhan and Dhahar (marked as Buraan) [1], keep in mind the boundaries for Garadag on this one is wrong so just ignore it.

I'll try my best to find the rest of the boundaries.

Many thanks, Dabaqabad (talk) 14:04, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for this. If you could also add those boundaries to the other district maps of Somaliland as well as modify the boundaries of Ceelafweyn and Ceerigaabo districts that would be wonderful!

Hi @Siirski:,

I just contributed to the article you linked by adding the maps. I did my research and based on several sources this is the approximate boundary for Baligubadle district ([4]). I will do my research on the boundaries of Salahlay district and I'll come back to you when I'm done.

Many thanks, Dabaqabad (talk) 23:34, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dabaqabad:, Baligubadle district Done .--Siirski (talk) 02:34, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Siirski:,

Perfect. I just managed to figure out the borders of the districts in Maroodi Jeex (see [5], Salahley is just east of Baligubadle). I'd also very much appreciate it if you could also fix the Buuhoodle district map, towns like Odanleh and Balli-Calanle in the west were errendously added to Burao district and were omitted (see [6]).

Pinging @Milenioscuro: and @Jacob300: to let them know as well since they also made maps of Somaliland's districts.

I am amazed

I am amazed by your editing in the Puntland-Somaliland dispute. I have refrained from revising the wording of "disputed area" between Somaliland and Puntland until after the discussion in Category talk:Disputed territory between Somaliland and Puntland. You should also refrain from editing on this until the discussion is over. If you really need to edit it, be sure to write the source.--Freetrashbox (talk) 07:57, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Freetrashbox:, Already existing sources. Siirski (talk) 10:50, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If the source for your description already exists in this article, you should indicate it. You can use the reference number in the article.--Freetrashbox (talk) 11:34, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The source is not only for your debate partners, not only for the editors but also all readers. What is obvious to you is not obvious to most readers. If you want to edit a sensitive issue like territorial disputes, you should always indicate the source inline. I still have other things to say to you, but first, please follow the rules to present your sources.--Freetrashbox (talk) 10:15, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Freetrashbox:, I will make sure to follow the rules for providing sources. If you have anything else, tell me and I will correct my mistakes. Thank you for your clarification. --Siirski (talk) 09:04, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Somaliland governors

I'm just wondering if you could update the regional governors of Somaliland given that they have changed? From my head I can think of Togdheer and Sanaag regions having new governors now, I don't know about the other regions.

Flag of Somaliland

I saw your edit in Flag of Somalia. It's very interesting that State of Somaliland, which has only existed for a week, had its own flag, but neither State of Somaliland nor Flag of Somaliland seems to have a reason or source for it. It would be nice if you could at least list the source.--Freetrashbox (talk) 07:08, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Freetrashbox:, According to the flag used by the Villa Somalia flag consisting of a light blue field with a central white star. Which symbolizes unity and independence, officially on June 26, 1960, in Somaliland, and only days later in the former Italian Somaliland, with whom it united on July 1. --Siirski (talk) 10:22, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is a little weak as evidence, but I understand. Thank you very much for your answer.--Freetrashbox (talk) 10:30, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Freetrashbox:, U Welcome, yes, you are right, although it is weak evidence, but I will try to find the evidence, then I will reply to you. Thank you.--Siirski (talk) 10:41, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism etc.

I saw your edit. As far as I have been able to find out, Dhahar is effectively controlled by Puntland, and the idea that Dhahar is Somalia's territory cannot be said to be Vandalism. In such a case, "no agreement" seems to be appropriate. See WP:ATWV and WP:VD. Also, regarding your other edit, you seem to prefer the exclamation mark. You probably don't have a specific agenda, but some people may take this as you enjoying it. It would be better to use "Reverted back." without the mark here. And since everyone can see that you're reverting, you need to give a more detailed reason why you're reverting. I think "no agreement" is good here too, since the purpose is probably the same as the previous edit.--Freetrashbox (talk) 02:24, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
