Talk:International recognition of the State of Palestine

Slovenia just recognized Palestine
Quite clearly: https://x.com/mzez_rs/status/1798081688343548163?s=48&t=kJLyaI6hau_cAdPQ04TQfQ 2A00:A041:3B9A:AC00:D172:9D2:443E:61B (talk) 20:23, 4 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Yep Slovenia becomes 4th European country to recognize Palestinian state after parliamentary vote Selfstudier (talk) 20:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The reference used in the article even mentions that the parliamentary approved proposal needs to be approved by the government - thus not final. Semsûrî (talk) 20:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Other way around, already approved subject to a parliamentary vote. So, yes, it is final. Selfstudier (talk) 20:36, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, self-revert it is. Semsûrî (talk) 20:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

It's 144, right?
Just checking that after all the conversations and goings on, we have settled at 144. All agree? Selfstudier (talk) 11:11, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Plan B - "or thereabouts" is currently used in 335 Wikipedia articles. Sean.hoyland (talk) 13:03, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Armenia has just recognized Palestine
Armenia has just recognized Palestine: https://www.mfa.am/hy/interviews-articles-and-comments/2024/06/21/mfa_statement/12706 (also, in the section about Japan the word Palestinian is misspelled as “Palestianian”) 2A02:14F:1F2:F027:1E3:18AC:8942:B097 (talk) 07:48, 21 June 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm seeing sources saying that and it has been added, so.....145. Selfstudier (talk) 08:58, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The Times of Israel even says 145 UN members. Underdwarf58 (talk) 14:31, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Czech (again)
Please refer to the discussion here. Thoughts? Selfstudier (talk) 21:12, 4 July 2024 (UTC)


 * What about going along those lines? - In 1988, Czechoslovakia officially recognised Palestine and this act was carried over to its legal successor Czechia. Lately, the government of Peter Fiala, in line with its pro-Israeli policy, began to question the continuing recognition, arguing that there is currently no Palestinian entity fulfilling the criteria of an independent state. However, Czechia did not formally revoke the 1988 act, and the Czech government and the Palestinian Authority continue to maintain diplomatic relations. Needs copyediting and adding sources.— kashmīrī  TALK  13:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Added per BOLD. I suggest moving Czechia to countries that do recognise Palestine, per lots of sources and the actual legal situation it seems. — kashmīrī  TALK  23:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * So that technically makes it 146 countries recognizing it? Underdwarf58 (talk) 14:40, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Unless someone is going to make some strong objection, it seems there is sufficient sourcing to say that, yes. Perhaps give it a little more time before adding it. Selfstudier (talk) 14:46, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Could you please just add percentage to lead?
To make it clearer to readers, could you please add the percentage of countries that recognize Palestine to the first sentence, making it be “As of July 2024, the State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 145 of the 193 (75.13%) member states of the United Nations.” 77.137.75.98 (talk) 11:49, 8 July 2024 (UTC)


 * How about "three quarters" per This sourcerecognition of the Palestinian State? Selfstudier (talk) 11:56, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I’d go with the percentage as it will probably be changing slightly with time, and I guess everyone understands that over 75% means over three quarters. Still, the following sentence also is missing a word, I believe it should read “due to THE FACT THAT the United States…”176.12.184.253 (talk) 12:05, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Might be a way to automate the %... Selfstudier (talk) 12:30, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Seems fine, or "more than three-quarters". Two decimal places, even talking about a percentage of countries, just seems silly. What's 0.13% of a country? Iskandar323 (talk) 13:35, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * produces but unfortunately NaN% doesn't seem to work for a %. Anyone know how to do that? Selfstudier (talk) 15:00, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * So could you just add 75% for now? Someone will always remember to change it for each new recognition. But the following sentence is still grammatically wrong / not proper English: “due to the United States, a permanent member (…), has consistently used” - should be “due to the fact that the United States (…) has consistently used” in proper English. 2A00:A041:3B9A:AC00:439:4B8A:FA1C:5595 (talk) 22:32, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
