The "Georgia" move discussions in a nutshell:
On Wikipedia, the placing of a word in parentheses in the title of an article is primarily used as a method of disambiguation, with the parenthesised word usually being a set that the article's subject is a part of.
The basic debate has been whether the Eurasian country should be the primary topic, and therefore does not need any parenthesised word in the title. Those in favor of such a move often argue that internationally recognised countries should take precedence over sub-national units like the U.S. state, though there are other suggested reasons for primary topic. Some proponents of a move have also argued that the current failure to recognize Georgia (the country) as the primary topic displays a U.S.-centric bias.
Opponents of such a renaming note that under Wikipedia's guidelines, the primary topic can be determined based on which one is significantly more commonly searched for and read than other meanings as well as which one is more important or significant. They generally dispute that the U.S. state of Georgia is any less important; in fact, given the significantly greater size of its population, economy (especially its film industry), geographical area, and main airport, many argue the U.S. state is actually more important despite sharing some of its sovereignty with the United States federal government and not having a seat in the United Nations. They have also argued in the past that since the Eurasian country was (at the time of the above linked discussions) being actually slightly less searched for than the U.S. state, the former should not be the primary topic. Based on all of the foregoing factors, some contend the U.S. state should be the primary topic with no qualifier in its title. Some opponents have also argued that having Georgia as a disambiguation page is a better way to catch cases where an article contains wikilinks to the bare name "Georgia" that should be disambiguated.

Hello, i suggest editing sentence, "Georgia is a country located in Eastern Europe and West Asia." to "Georgia is a country located in West Asia.". When considering borders of Europe ( bordering Asia), those being Black Sea, Caspian Sea, Arctic Ocean, mountain range and river of Ural, it is geaographically not part of Europe. VojtechKasl (talk) 19:36, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The "please provide a reliable source" response to edit requests is always of concern when the existing information isn't cited to a reliable source. Can someone supply a reliable source stating that Georgia does lie, in part, in Eastern Europe? Right now there's no footnote for that assertion. Largoplazo (talk) 23:20, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also agree, most accepted borders of Europe and Asia, is that North Caucasus which is part of Russia lies in Europe, while countries South of the Caucasus lies in Western Asia. The articles for Europe, Asia and West Asia are all consistent with that definition. 176.224.8.113 (talk) 07:52, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change from Greater_coat_of_arms_of_Georgia.svg to Georgian_COA.jpg
It may seem stupid, but every source I find uses Georgian_COA.jpg, and none of them aren't shiny on the gold parts. You would think I would make a post about it about CoA of Georgia. And I did. And nobody saw it. So I would make a new file thats correct, right? Unfortunately, I just can't use Inkscape. I absolutely suck at using it. Not only would I have to make it shiny, I would also have to add the inner ears, and the actual eyes of the lions. There's also a border on the shield. And I just can't do that with my amount of skill. Considering that nobody even heard or even looks at the discussion page there, and the inaccuracies are definitely there, I ask if I can replace the current SVG version of the Coat of Arms of Georgia, where it's used, to Georgian_COA.jpg. Thank you. Kxeon (talk) 16:59, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not entirely sure what the issue is. Is it that you feel the wrong colours have been used in the Vector Image? The English Wikipedia style guide recommends using SVG over PNG (and JPG) for images like coats of arms and flags become it the image is more stable at different size formats. The SVG file is used on far more pages than the JPG. If you think the SVG is too distracting to the contents of the article, why not post a message at the village pump at Wikimedia Commons and explain the problem you are having with the current vector image and advice on changing it to a more accurate / less distracting form.

@Kxeon: You should not be making changes based on personal observations of how these symbols are displayed on different websites or documents. Specifications of state symbols are written into law, which states there should be "two gold lions". It does not say anything about requirement for lions to be "shiny". If they wanted to say they should be "shiny", they would say that, but they don't...
President's website doesn't use shiny coat of arms [1], and neither do many other official bodies.

Under History - Pre-History, the "textile-based clothing" reference is preceded by a link to the EOCENE, but the correct dating for the oldest textiles is 20-40 thousand years per the researchers in the reference link provided, not millions of years. The EOCENE link should be changed (if included at all) to the Late Pleistocene. Yavare (talk) 01:28, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done - This line was way off, I replaced Eocene with the 34,000 years mentioned in the citation and reworded to clarify that use for clothing is not confirmed. Jamedeus (talk) 21:41, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
