Dissolution of Military governorate
[edit]The lead says the military governorate was dissolved in 1981, the cited source doesnt seem appropriate (would need a secondary source rather than a UN report).
Also, Sara Roy describes the formation of the civil administration in 1981:
Soon thereafter, the Israeli government instituted a civil administration in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, structurally parallel to that of the military ad- ministration and subject to it. In that sense, the civil administration was, in effect, an integral part of the military structure. Implemented in Gaza on 1 De- cember 1981, the CIVAD, as it came to be known, was given responsibility over all nonmilitary sectors such as health, education, and welfare.

Missing map of historically Arab owned areas
[edit]This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
- What I think should be changed: Add a combined map of territories owned by different parties in 1945 in the Overview table of maps.
- Why it should be changed: There is a lot of information about what Jews owned and what others proposed to allocate, but I found myself wanting a complete picture of what the actual situation was before the UNSC split the borders. It would also help with comparing to the existing image showing current day ownership. There is already an image available on Wikipedia which I think would be a good fit for this.

POV tag
[edit]I haven't read the entire article yet, but this already needs major work to resolve POV issues. I have addressed some of these. The main issue is that the article continues to treat the questions relating to the legality of the occupation as being disputed, when in fact it had been settled by the ICJ and every other human rights RS. Also, for example, there was no mention of settlements in the lede, which I added; but this needs more elaboration. There is no mention of the institutional system of discrimination by Israel against the Palestinians per ICJ, which many have called apartheid, in the lede. The weird table below has a row for "claimed by", which insinuates the Sinai Peninsula is "claimed by" Egypt. These are some of the actionable issues for now.

- @Makeandtoss: I think the NPOV tag may be misleading for readers. Can you add a brief rationale on the tag summarizing your points from here? Wretchskull (talk) 11:11, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Indeed, there are issues that could be improved, but after reconsideration this doesn't warrant the tag. Main actionable issue: lack of mention of apartheid in the lede. Makeandtoss (talk) 08:27, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
Largest
[edit]"The modern era or the modern period is considered the current historical period of human history. It was originally applied to the history of Europe and Western history for events that came after the Middle Ages, often from around the year 1500. From the 1990s, it is more common among historians to refer to the period after the Middle Ages and up to the 19th century as the early modern period." From the relevant article. The time frame described in the article dealing with the conquests is limited to the 20th/21st century. The modern period is longer. Therefore, the sentence is misleading. 2.55.164.132 (talk) 06:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
