Mulla 'Abd Allah (Mala Abdulla) and Kirkuk province

This area is recaptured from ISIS, it should be yellow. See here: [1]

Can we also please add some more dots to the Kirkuk province? SalahWaisi 23:09, 3 January 2015‎ (UTC)[reply]

Al-Qaim town is contested. It should be marked contested.

I'm sorry, but Press TV is too biased and is considered to be pro-Iraqi and staunchly anti-ISIS. No using pro-gov sources for gov advances nor pro-ISIS(at least on this map) for ISIS advances. Don't even bother using pro-Kurd source for Kurd advances. Do so and it will be revered if any editors here find out. Use only reliable resources. Rules are rules.

I agree. Press TV is as good as Iraqi TV which we have already agreed isn't valid for pro-Iraq edits, just like YPG media isn't valid for pro-peshmerga edits. Mozad655 (talk) 23:57, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think you need more sources for such a big edit. If Baiji was really captured, all media would mention it. Its also very unlikely that Baiji is captured by ISF before Tikrit now that all the effort is put into Tikrit. In other words, lets wait for more sources before we make any changes to a city the size of Baiji. Mozad655 (talk) 23:59, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]


Eski Mosul and sorroundings

March 9th report of ISW states, in point 9, that IS captured in Badush area three former Iraqi soldiers of Saddam era and executed them in Eski Mosul...so, I think that shows as IS-held Eski and, obviously, the other Tigris's towns located between Badush and Eski( Dawasah, Musharraf Habit and Halabiya)...Fab8405 (talk) 02:36, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It was reverted, because it was said by an Iraqi official. However, I think you will find that the town was taken over by the ISF, when unbiased sources report in the next few days. What is happening there is bomb cleanup operations, which is why they say the town is still being 'secured'. 2601:0:B200:F7D9:58D3:6AAD:2C9B:A282 (talk) 23:32, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ramadi is not contested since IS is only carbombing there as your sources claim. The IA has repelled the IS attacks mentioned in your third source: http://www.defense.gov/news/newsarticle.aspx?id=128359 There are no further clashes reported so the town is not contested.

Size of Mosul Icon

So we have heard that there will soon be an operation to retake Mosul from ISIS. When this happens, the battle will probably take a long time, meaning more than 1 month, and we will need to make a map of city control just like Aleppo, Damascus, Deir Ezzor, etc. However, in the meantime, I would like to propose making the icon for Mosul city larger, as well as slightly changing its location to more correctly show where it is. If you look at satellite imagery, Mosul extends as far east as Gogjalil, the town shown to the east on the map. What do people think about this? 2601:0:B200:F7D9:E166:1747:CE2C:97E2 (talk) 20:47, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For the past month Tikrit was 60-80% under ISF so we marked it as contested. Tikrit is now 99% under ISF. We will not mark it as contested just because of that 1 percent which is essentially just a few dozen ISIS fighters against 20.000+ ISF. I don't see the problem.

Dijlah and Mukayshfah

These extremely two small villages (literally just a few houses if you look on satalite) were marked as contested a couple of months ago. I would like to change them to red based on probability. It is highly improbable that ISF have captured Tikrit and all the surrounding villages and towns on the path, but gone around Dijlah and Mukayshfah which are literally just a couple of farmers houses. Now because they are so insignificant no source even bothers to mention them these days. I think it would be wrong to wait for a source to disprove when its so extremely unlikely that they are still under ISIS. Does anyone else think this? Mozad655 (talk) 17:40, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree completely. I seem to remember awhile back a pro-government source (petolucem if I remember correctly) saying ISF cleared them, but we couldn't use him because he was biased. He is probably right. I agree, they should be marked as red. 2601:0:B200:F7D9:186D:7392:97A4:6D28 (talk) 00:55, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
