Page date is out of date in Template "Iraqi insurgency detailed map"
It is not clear whether "Page Date" applies to the map itself, but otherwise the map is undated. It is important to know the "as of" of the map. It is best not to have to resort to the Archives to guess at the "official" date. Note: Since the status of all locations cannot be realistically know in "real time," there is obviously some art to picking a date, if date of last entry is not deemed "best." --- Thanks, PNA
Fallujah Clashes done
The clashes in Fallujah city are done, and Daesh controls the city: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/is-the-islamic-state-losing-its-grip-on-fallujah/2016/02/20/c86adda2-7416-4cb8-9be5-4ec5d30d3882_story.html
Please change the city to black.
- Denied. Now Fallujah is government-held, so there's no need for fighting over it. TheNavigatrr (talk) 21:43, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
Kabisa
Kabisa (or Kubaysah) near Hit in Al Anbar is controlled by IS and is not encircled.
- This is actually not true. It is controlled by ISIS. Would you care to provide a source? TheNavigatrr (talk) 21:41, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
- It is not controlled by ISIS for over a year. This module is utter trash. Eg here is ISIS own video where they are targeting Iraqi military outpost at Kabisah plant https://twitter.com/worldonalert/status/819310076389445632 Akashat has been taken over by Jughraiyfa PMU back in October last year. Surrounding of Lake Thawra has been clared year ago. Euphrates basin up to Haditha is under Iraqi military control and not some here-and-there towns localted on Anbar main road under ISIS control. Hassan al-Maklaf and whole area around it is under Iraqi military control for 2 years now. ISIS in that province is hiding in mountains, not towns.

YBŞ and PKK Controlled Areas
Several areas shown on the map as controled by the Kurdistan Regional Government are actually under the control of the PKK and allied militias (Sinjar Resistance Units, ect). This groups hold the town of Sinjar and the surrounding area as well as an area near Qandil. They act in opposition to the KRG.XavierGreen (talk) 17:49, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- This is true. However, we do not have an appropriate color for them, and we want to make the map simpler. Also, force for control are more spotty. TheNavigatrr (talk) 21:38, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
- So pick a color, orange for instance.XavierGreen (talk) 20:02, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
- We need to keep in mind that there is also a combined Syrian-Iraqi map, and Syrian YPG and YBŞ should have a similar yellow color on it.
- So it would be more logic to change the color of the KDP-KRG to a more yellow-greenish color.
- Maybe we have to change Turkey allied KDP-KRG to Greenish Yellow, keep PUK-KRG to the present/ normal yellow and change YBS and YPG to a more orange-like yellow?
- But with YBŞ allied more to the Iraqi federal goverment, it is strange to represent the same as Turkey allied KDP-KRG.--Niele~enwiki (talk) 13:55, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- So pick a color, orange for instance.XavierGreen (talk) 20:02, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
- PKK doesn't control territory, they just have a presence. But I personally think YBS should have an orange collor. KDP some greenish, PUK and Gorran yellow. We must do immediately. Beshogur (talk) 09:49, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
