Sahara

[edit]

Why is the Western Sahara included into Morocco? The map needs to be edited.

We have to use some kind of objective reference for the maps. Otherwise we will end up with something like this File:Visa requirements for Romanian citizens.svg which is completely insane and impossible to edit. Therefore we ought to use something and that something is the UN membership. At least for the maps as article tables contain information on a wide array of territories with different statuses - autonomous, disputed, colonial etc. I am not saying it's a good option but it's the only neutral option that we have. Otherwise if we include Western Sahara then people will say but what about Abkhazia, if we include Abkhazia soon the issue of Crimea will arise and that's how mess begins. But please remember that this in no way tries to define Western Sahara as part of Morocco or as an independent country. I personally have zero opinion over the issue one way or another. It's just that we need to keep things simple and neutral, that's all.--Twofortnights (talk) 18:41, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
