Observer state vote edit

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

After the vote goes ahead tomorrow, I would suggest scrapping the column "UN membership position" and replacing it with the vote results for the upgrade. That way, we can let the details column do the talking when it comes to each state's position on membership. Keep in mind that the campaign for actual membership is still ongoing, and this is just one step. The article should still describe the overall campaign to gain membership.

Agreed, I was actually planning on doing exactly that. TDL (talk) 18:05, 28 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Map of votes and recognition edit

Latest comment: 10 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

State of Palestine recognition and 2011 and 2012 votes:

Recognition and in 2012 voting "in favour" or not voting and in 2011 voting "in favour" or not voting.

Recognition and in 2012 voting "abstain" or not voting and in 2011 voting "abstain".

No recognition and in 2012 voting "in favour" or not voting and in 2011 voting "in favour".

No recognition and in 2012 voting "abstain" or not voting and in 2011 voting "abstain".

Recognition and in 2012 voting "against" or not voting and in 2011 voting "against".

No recognition and in 2012 voting "against" or not voting and in 2011 voting "against".

No recognition and not voting in 2012 and 2011.

The map aggregates in a way the three tallies we have - diplomatic recognition, vote in 2011, vote in 2012. Colors are according to combination of two parameters: "Recognition/No recognition" and "vote". For "vote" the UNGA/2012 vote position is taken when different from the UNESCO/2011 vote position (as more recent). If a state had not voted in 2012 (absent or not a member), then the 2011 vote position is utilized. If the state had not voted in 2011 either (absent, not a member, intelligible to vote) it's colored only according to recognition/no recognition.

Dark green is for recognition + yes vote: most of the recognizers
Light green is for recognition + abstain vote: Paraguay, Malawi, DR Congo, Papua New Guinea, Liberia, Togo, Rwanda, Bosnia, Mongolia, Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, Montenegro, Slovakia, Hungary, Vanuatu
Dark blue is for no-recognition + yes vote: Mexico, Jamaica, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Trinidad and Tobago, South Sudan, Eritrea, Myanmar, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, New Zealand, Ireland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy, Greece, Austria, Armenia, Japan
Light blue is for no-recognition + abstain vote: Guatemala, Slovenia, Haiti, Bahamas, Barbados, Kiribati, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Cook Islands, Croatia, Monaco, Andorra, San Marino, Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, UK, Germany, Moldova, Macedonia, South Korea, Singapore, Cameroon, Colombia, Australia
Orange is for recognition + against vote: Czech Republic
Red is for no-recognition + against vote: Israel, USA, Palau, Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Panama, Canada, Nauru
Gray (the remaining) is for no-recognition + not voted: Niue and all who aren't members of UN or UNESCO (Holy See, SMOM, EU, states with limited recognition)

Disclaimer: neither recognition or lack of recognition, nor past votes on the same or different questions forces the states to vote in the same way in the future votes in UNSC, UNGA and other organizations. Japinderum (talk) 10:44, 1 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

It is nice and it is accurate, but the doubling of status makes it hard to get one's head round! It didn't help that there were two sessions, one in 2011 and the other in 2012. The Big Hoof! (talk) 18:27, 7 July 2013 (UTC) Struck out sock. bobrayner (talk) 05:18, 2 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Blacklisted Links Found on Palestine 194 edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Cyberbot II has detected links on Palestine 194 which have been added to the blacklist, either globally or locally. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed or are highly inappropriate for Wikipedia. The addition will be logged at one of these locations: local or global If you believe the specific link should be exempt from the blacklist, you may request that it is white-listed. Alternatively, you may request that the link is removed from or altered on the blacklist locally or globally. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. Please do not remove the tag until the issue is resolved. You may set the invisible parameter to "true" whilst requests to white-list are being processed. Should you require any help with this process, please ask at the help desk.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/independence_for_palestine_9/
Triggered by \bavaaz\.org\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

Solecism edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

UN members are entitled whether to vote for or against the Palestinian statehood recognition at the UN

Of course, Ban Ki Moon is not a native speaker of English but the intrusioon of 'whether' here is a grating solecism. I don't doubt the source transcribed his words literally, but if another exists that paraphrases it in a way consonant with English usage, that would be better.Nishidani (talk) 06:59, 11 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
