South Sudan
The map does not show South Sudan.

^Since the territory of Sudan in this image includes South Sudan, and the map displays geographical regions with Arabic as a spoken language, would the delineation of South Sudan be necessary?

Morocco
Morocco has two official languages - Arabic and Tamazight. The map should be corrected. Solar-Wind (talk) 01:24, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Yes I agree, Morocco shall be blue and Western Sahara shall be covered in blue and green stripes. Zambitious (talk) 21:16, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Algeria
As far as I am concerned, Algeria also has two official (or national) languages, Arabic and Tamazight. The map should be corrected again! 203.135.190.6 (talk) 14:55, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you have a verifiable reliable source for that assertion?  —  Jeff G. ツ  (talk)   14:57, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * As far as I remember, Tamazight was recognized as a national language by a constitutional amendment in May 2002.

Mauritania
The national languages of Mauritania are Arabic, Pulaar, Soninke, and Wolof; the official language is Arabic. so should the map be updated to show Mauritania in blue (or green)?--Gaga.vaa (talk) 09:14, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Lebanon blue
Since French is co-official in Lebanon, it should blue instead of green on that map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.51.236.11 (talk) 13:30, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Syria
Why is Syria shared in that way? Hgh1985 (talk) 06:21, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

Israel
Arabic is an official language in Israel, along with Hebrew. It is written in their laws that the two languages are to share official status. 75.27.37.89 (talk) 22:56, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
