Some news worth incorporating

[edit]
  • Greek ambassador Kyvetos meets with Kurdish officials, announces Greek gov't's decision to upgrade diplomatic office (news media report this like it's notable, I'm not sure). [[1]] [[2]]

Commentary from Demirtas, while in Turkish jail [[3]]

Maybe the most significant-- Russia's Rosneft clinches big oil deal with the KRG [[4]]

I'm sure the Turkey/Iran developments will be found by other people as well, I posted some of the more obscure but possibly useful stuff here for future incorporation.--Yalens (talk) 03:58, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also more fiery words from Erdogan [[5]] --Yalens (talk) 05:05, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Number of votes

[edit]

Sum of "yes" votes (263,094) and "no" votes (18,923) is an order of magnitude smaller than total number of (valid) votes (3,305,925). What gives? 109.60.38.197 (talk) 14:08, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Only 10% of the votes has been counted. Check here: [7]--Ahmedo Semsurî (talk) 14:29, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reactions

[edit]

It's entirely unclear which reactions are to the results of the referendum and which date from before it was held. Are all those from before really still necessary? Thryduulf (talk) 22:21, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I believe they are informative. We should separate out ones that were before the referendum to those that came after it. I believe there was at least one version of the page where this was once the case. --Yalens (talk) 22:25, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Iraqi Kurdistan conflict (2017)

Results

[edit]

The lede's first sentence has "preliminary results showing approximately 93.25 percent of votes cast in favour of independence" whereas #5 Results shows the final percentage as 92.73. Is there any reason not to change the current text? Mcljlm (talk) 00:40, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
