Talk:Regions of Morocco
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
===>POV issues What are the POV issues? From which POV is this article written? -Justin (koavf), talk, mail 15:09, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
===>POV issues The biased terms in the article are:
- the assertion that the problem is between Morocco and SADR, when the UN states clearly in all Security council resolutions that the two parties of the conflict are: the Kingdom of Morocco and the Polisario front.
- The use of the term "Free Zone" is specific to Polisario propaganda, and is used by no other international organism. If it is in the article it should be stated clearly that the Polisario considers it so.
- To use the term "Administer" for Polisario and "Occupy" for Morocco does not need any explanation to show it is taken from the Polisario propaganda material. This is a major issue in all WS articles. --SteveLo 09:01, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
===>Polisario and SADR
- The Polisario is not the administering power in the Free Zone, the SADR is. The contention is between two governments, not a government and a political party. Would it make sense to change all the articles about Taiwan and China to being a conflict between the "People's Republic of China" (a government) and "Koumintang" (a political party)? Of course not.
- I have no problem with mentioning that the term was coined by Sahrawi supporters (I don't know that it was Polisario - where did you get this information), but I also don't have a better name for this region. Do you?
- Actually, it does need explanation. Polisario are not a foreign government's military in the Sahara; Morocco is. Hence, the SADR is administering, and Morocco occupying. -Justin (koavf), talk, mail 13:21, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
