You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you blank out or remove content from Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to The Gambia. RA 0808 talkcontribs 18:00, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Islamic Republic of the Gambia vs Republic of The Gambia
Hello, the reason that the article contains both names is because the change to remove "Islamic" from the country's name was only announced recently by Barrow. For the moment the country is still known as the Islamic Republic of the Gambia to some international organizations including in the member list of the United Nations (see here) and by other countries including the UK Foreign Office (see here).

For the moment, you should not edit The Gambia's page for the next 24 hours as you are in violation of the three revert rule and may be blocked for edit warring. However, please feel free to discuss the need for a change at Talk:The Gambia. RA 0808 talkcontribs 18:09, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

I understand what you said but regardless the Gambia was under a dictatorship this name was not the result of a national referendum. I am a Gambian and have always feel offended upon reading or hearing the name Islamic Republic in anywhere. We will forever be a secular Democracy and I hope that the whole world respect that.
