Description of suggested change: I think that the map (and the table) on this map are quite outdated. Diplomatic relations (at least mutual diplomatic missions) exist between Palestine and, Belgium,[1] Austria,[2] Canada-Palestine relations, Cameroon, Croatia, Denmark, Eritrea, [3] Estonia, [4] Finland, Germany, Greece, Israel (disputed?), Italy, Japan,Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore,[5] South Korea and the United States at least according to the table on international recognition of Palestine.
My request is to add these countries into the table and the map, using the same format used in the rest of the table.
This would look like the following for Austria: (but would be repeated for all the countries in the list)
| − | |-
|135
|{{flag|Yemen}}
|Unknown | + | |-
|135
|{{flag|Yemen}}
|Unknown|-
||{{flag|Austria}}|Unknown |
Also generally, I feel like this article has a lot of overlap with the recognition of Palestine page. (This is not a merge request, more a “food for thought” kind of thing)

- Recognition is the acknowledgement of a state's or government's existence and legal standing in the international community, whereas diplomatic relations are the official, established relationships between states, generally involving embassies and ambassadors. The first step is recognition, which confirms a state's sovereignty and ability to sign agreements and join groups. This position is actively implemented through diplomatic ties, which promote reciprocal advantages like trade, information sharing, and amicable partnerships.

- Be nice please. I know this is difficult for many people. (I assume confusions like these are also what lead to the current state of the article) Slomo666 (talk) 23:23, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
- What do you mean "be nice"? I did not say any slurs or insults. Underdwarf58 (talk) 23:31, 7 October 2025 (UTC)

Engvar consistency
[edit]@Timrollpickering: I am afraid the article is not quite as consistent (yet) as your edit would appear to imply. I think we should have a short discussion about this to implement {{Use British English}} or another template achieving a similar goal of clarifying the variant on this page, alongside a short purge through the page of all the bits that do not conform to the chosen variant.
(I’ve done this before at Talk:International Criminal Court, if you want to see how I did it in the past)
Thank you, happy editing
Canada recognition
[edit]If you go on the Palestine Wikipedia page, it says that Canada recognizes Palestine, but on this page, Canada doesn’t, What the heck? Erpagitheeditor (talk) 22:58, 16 July 2026 (UTC)
- This page is not about recognition. Semsûrî (talk) 07:05, 17 July 2026 (UTC)
