Amman article
It would be slightly better if the images in the Amman article are not standardized to the right side, no? --Makeandtoss (talk) 18:46, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, typically all images should be aligned to the right and be the same size (panoramas/cityscapes and galleries being the exception). Otherwise, the article becomes cluttered. I haven't read the whole thing yet, but from a preliminary look, it needs some copyediting and there's some material that is unsourced or unnecessary, but on the whole it looks pretty good. I'm glad someone has taken an interest into Jordan-related articles. It's a neglected area on Wikipedia. Keep up the great work, Cheers --Al Ameer (talk) 18:56, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you, would you say its a good, good article nomination? --Makeandtoss (talk) 18:59, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I'll review the article more thoroughly myself if nobody takes it in the next couple of days. From what I've read so far, its looks pretty close to a GA. It just has a few issues which I mentioned above. --Al Ameer (talk) 02:00, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm helping a bit on the Jordan article which is in Good Article Nomination stage; however, I think it needs work and your help given your knowledge of the area and in getting articles to GA level would be appreciated (give us some pointers). Erp (talk) 04:05, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Fua
Can you expand this?♦ Dr. Blofeld  12:10, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Unless I'm mistaken I already worked on an article by a similar name called al-Fu'ah. Isn't that the same town? There's no refs in the article but when I type Fua on the internet I get the Shia-populated town near Idlib. As with all Arabic places, there's alternative English spellings such as "Fuah", "Fu'ah", "Fouaa", or "Fua" among others. If that is the case, the article should just redirect to al-Fu'ah. --Al Ameer (talk) 23:02, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Yes, you're probably right. I didn't think it sounded an accurate spelling for a Syrian village, sounded more Polynesian! Redirect it, but try to mention the recent suicide bombing of that and another settlement, Kafriya I think. Sad what is happening, those poor UNESCO monuments too.♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:02, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

coords missing
Hi. I'm writing to users who have used the "coords missing" template in the last year. Could you please use the "coord missing" template, instead? While "coords missing" is a redirect to the real template, and thus works fine in articles, using "coord missing" directly makes a number of automated bot workflows work better by eliminating the overhead of having to track down the uses of "coords missing" to eliminate the redirects. Thanks, -- The Anome (talk) 11:48, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

 * How to remove Orphan and Unreviewed templates? — Preceding unsigned comment added by EditorFromAsia (talk • contribs) 03:13, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I removed the reviewed template after looking at the article and some of the sources used. I removed the orphan template because the article is linked in List of Malayalam-language periodicals. Hopefully, you and other editors will continue to expand and integrate the article further into the world of wikipedia. Cheers --Al Ameer (talk) 03:44, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello help me, Calicut Review proposed for deletion. EditorFromAsia (talk) 10:30, 16 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Not only do you now have a 7 day period to add reliable sources to the article, you are actually allowed to object to the proposed deletion. If you do, I will advance my deletion argument on WP:AFD. @Al meer son: Notice Sockpuppet investigations/Aboobackeramani. -- Sam Sailor Talk! 11:34, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Separate articles on towns and nawahi

 * Article on Suluk Nahiya should be separated from the article on the town, in line with other Syrian locality articles. See example: Awj and Awj Nahiyah.

True, but then there needs to be somebody who takes the pain of creating some 200 basic articles on the Nahiya, as most don't exist yet. If you're willing to, then I'm ready to take my share. PanchoS (talk) 18:02, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Yea, it'll be a lot of tedious work that I'm not up for that at the moment. Until then, it's a minor point, but the infobox should follow the standard model of other Syrian localities which are just about the individual town. A separate section could be made in the article body called "Suluk Subdistrict", or something along those lines, where facts about the nahiya could be listed including the map. Or we could do the same thing without creating a separate section. --Al Ameer (talk) 18:37, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
