Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.

With respect to any reverting restrictions:

Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.

Dear all,

Could you please update the map for THE ARAB LEAGUE because the map of morocco is incorrect as officialy and commonly updated By the Arab League on 26th/12/21

Also how can we explain that there is no people of the Sahara in Egypt or in Libya or in Tunisia or in Algeria knowing that the Sahara goes from the Atlantic coast in the Moroccan Sahara to Egypt. It is a people of the Sahara who exist only in the Moroccan Sahara ???. It is a conflict that has lasted too long because of Algerian propaganda and their petrodollars for hegemonist and expansionist purposes and above all to slow down the development of Morocco which without gas or oil was advancing and still moving in the right direction even if this fratricidal conflict has nevertheless impacted our development. This kind of speech only feeds the ideals of Algerian/Iranian generals and therefore the conflictMember states of the Arab League?

Since it would be way more informative and easy for visitors of Wikipedia, I suggest on the board under "Members" to also put "Observers" with "Armenia, Brazil, Chad, Eritrea, Greece, Republic of India, Venezuela" as mentioned in this article by Wikipedia itself: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_relations_of_the_Arab_League#:~:text=The%20Arab%20League%20or%20League,%2C%20Republic%20of%20India%2C%20Venezuela. I hope you'll add this change, it might not be a big change, but I believe it's way easier for the users to get a straight answer for their possible school or personal projects. Thank you for your time. I-AnnihilatoR-I (talk) 05:41, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Not done: The "Members" parameter is for member states, not observers. Skitash (talk) 08:37, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
