Picture in the "Art, Music, and Clothing" Section

[edit]

Under the 'Art, music, and clothing' Section there is a picture of 'Palestinian children in their traditional dress'. The picture itself was taken in London (on Oct. 9th 2023), and it is not clear this has anything to do with 'traditional Palestinian clothing'. The picture does contain a political message which is irrelevant to the information discussed in the section, and in addition contains a short manifesto in text when opened "There are more than two million people living there, and this brutal form of collective punishment is clearly a war crime which threatens the lives of all of them...". I suggest deleting this picture or finding a more suitable image which is relevant to the information discussed.— Preceding unsigned comment added by an unspecified IP address

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 14:03, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Add a clickable song thingy where you can play the national anthem
</div Depotadore (talk) 11:05, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I'd agree that the anthem audio should be added to the country's infobox, similar to other states. We already explicitly state that it's the anthem, with sources backing it up. I don't see why a clickable audio file can't be added to the infobox here. AG202 (talk) 16:49, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Early history

[edit]

why there's no early history section? at least a brief about non-arab/muslim history and a detailed paragraph about Muslim/Arab history of the region of Palestine?? 213.139.45.143 (talk) 12:48, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is about the state, to the region. Slatersteven (talk) 12:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Then why does Israel have. Kharbaan Ghaltaan (talk) 20:05, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have added an excerpt from History of Palestine to the beginning of the history section, which runs through various periods up to the Ottoman era. This edit was modeled after the Israel article. Evaporation123 (talk) 05:58, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Its not like Israel article. In Israel, every section before modern history is in fair size. I too did many edits and made Palestine article too lengthy. I think every section should be of fair size in this article like this:

If you want to go ahead with putting that in, fine by me. Evaporation123 (talk) 18:40, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright ... Sorry I replied late since I'm in vacation and laptop is not available.... I will continue my work once I'm back . Thank you Kharbaan Ghaltaan (talk) 14:34, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Citation needed

[edit]

Hi,
The lead sentence asserts that Palestine is a country, but the footnote has the following error:  “The named reference :17 was invoked but never defined.”  Suggest either supplying a substantiating citation, or otherwise replacing it with a Citation Needed template  —Arrandale Westmere (talk) 04:46, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Better reference needed for Palestinian Statehood

[edit]

The reference used to validate Palestinian Statehood (ref #19) needs to be changed because it states the exact opposite:

From "United Nations Common Country Analysis for the Occupied Palestinian Territory" states:

"The text, designations, and presentations of materials in this publication, including their respective citations, maps, and bibliography, do NOT imply the expression of ANY OPINION WHATSOEVER OR ANY OFFICIAL POSITION BY THE UNITED NATIONS concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city, or area, or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries." Meson81-wiki (talk) 19:35, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removed ref. We don't need a ref for the statehood (or country, same thing, although I prefer state myself. I guess saying the State of Palestine is a state is redundant tho). Selfstudier (talk) 19:43, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please undo this edit, which added a clearly inappropriate coma [sic]. Thanks. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 14:51, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Occupied Jerusalem isn't mentioned as part of the territories at start of lead.

[edit]

Israeli occupied Jerusalem is part of the state of Palestine and should be mentioned as such when describing the geography at the very beginning of the article. 2A04:4A43:447F:EAA8:0:0:3B2E:CB0E (talk) 03:12, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WB is usually understood to include EJ but anyway added to make it clear. Selfstudier (talk) 08:59, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
