===>POV issues What are the POV issues? From which POV is this article written? -Justin (koavf), talk, mail 15:10, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

====> POV: it is written from the POV of Polisario.

  • "Due to ongoing military occupation, most of the area is disputed with the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic.". The word occupation is used by the camp of Polisario. It is to be found in none of the UN documents and reports. Moroccans call it "reintegration", Polisarians "occupation". The international community speaks of "legal status of territory and issue of sovereignty unresolved; territory contested by Morocco and Polisario Front (Popular Front for the Liberation of the Saguia el Hamra and Rio de Oro)," as stated in the CIA actbook, Western Sahara entry. So the term occupation makes the article pro-Polisario, and the defining the parts of the conflict as Morocco and SADR is equally biased in favor of Polisario, because, again, the UN, the CIA factbook, the UE, consider the Polisario as the other party of the conflict and not the SADR. There are even some countries, France, Spain, and the US, who regard Algeria a direct concerned party. ===> " The issue of sovereignty over the area is disputed between Morocco and the Polisario front" sounds NPOV. --SteveLo 23:43, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

===>Occupation Are you telling me that the area isn't occupied? Clearly it is. To write about the West Bank but never mention that it is occupied is perposterous; are you suggesting we do that also? The reason why Algeria is considered a party to the conflict is because Hassan refused for years to negotiate directly with Polisario, so Algeria advocated for them. The area is contested between two different governments: the SADR and Kingdom of Morocco. Polisario is a political party within the territory and the refugee camps in Tindouf. -Justin (koavf), talk, mail 23:56, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV violation[edit]

The map displayed on this and other related articles is clearly violating NPOV as it covers the non-self-governing territory of Western Sahara and even SADR territory to make them look as though they are part of Morocco. If the idea is to show what Morocco claims, then every part should be highlighted and a note explaining what is what should be added. The idea (as claimed by MakhzenHuman) that this is a Commons issue is obviously baseless. Please note that while I started this discussion here, the grossly misleading map affects particularly the regions that have nothing to do with Western Sahara. M.Bitton (talk) 14:45, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a link to this discussion in the NPOV tags for the other region pages, so that the issue is clearer to new visitors and to facilitate discussion at one location. (There's currently no other relevant talk page discussions at the other articles.) Please feel free to modify that if there's a better way to do so.
Secondly, I also support having at least a map that's amended to reflect the territorial disputes. The pre-2015 regions maps (e.g. here, here, and so on), which are used on the pre-2105 region articles, are an example of how that could look. A standard footnote could also be added to the captions of the map in each article to explain further, as M.Bitton suggests. Thanks. R Prazeres (talk) 20:08, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
