Talk:History of Palestinian nationality

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page is very promising. You provide a clear chronological structure.

• Please list your references in full.
• A short introduction paragraph at the beginning of the page would be useful.
• The brief history section is unnecessary, as it is available elsewhere and doesn't contribute directly to the topic of the article.
• You might want to refer to the citizenship situation of Palestinians under the Ottomans, before the British mandate.
• You could link to the History of Israeli Nationality and Arab citizens of Israel pages.
• You will want to say more about the situation of Palestinians in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and elsewhere. The broader question of the diaspora, its political representation, and its claim to a right of return also deserves attention.
• Your discussion of travel documents is important. Perhaps you could create a section dealing specifically with this topic.
• Now that you have the political narrative of citizenship, what can you say about other kinds of practices and issues such as social and civil rights?
