This source says Palestine: [1], Not West Bank. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 21:30, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We do not to use inaccurate bits of infomation, albeit they are found in RS. We know better on this geographical point than this source does and therefore my version is correct. The old version is confusing with regards to current term usage. Chesdovi (talk) 09:50, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Its not inaccurate, the source says Palestine, the text you added is false. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 10:36, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Because the source uses "Palestine", alongside nations (Israel, Lebanon) that are traditionally part of the broader historical region called "Palestine", it's obvious they were referring to the West Bank and/or Gaza strip. Whether we want to say "Palestinian territories" or "West Bank" or ?, is where this discussion should really be focused. Plant distribution is based on geographical regions—the use of nation/state names is only a convenience (or inconvenience in this case). We need to get the geographical distribution correct and unambiguous. First Light (talk) 18:34, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
