137450608 over 2 years ago

Hello, You are wasting my time here, you keep repeating your argument and being ignorant, and you can not provide an official source for your edits. I gave you lots of patience and was nice to you while you keep cussing/disrespecting me while I'm trying to help you here.
You made changes, you provide an official source for that.
I reverted your changeset as it's not reflecting the situation on the ground, and you refused to recognize the official Iraqi government links I gave you to understand and you kept with unofficial sources then went with a 15-year-old source that doesn't reflect the situation at the current day.
again, if you want to edit the map fictionally and do whatever you wish, go here: https://opengeofiction.net
if you want to edit the map historically, go here: https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/
OSM is for the current time. We map what is on the ground now. That's it.
Have a nice day.
Regards.

Correction: it was always a part of Diyala Governorate and it was under sulimani administrative control illegally occupied from 2003-2017 but currently its administrative by Diyala government since “17. Best regards.

Again, you can see at top of your source “2009” which is old as after 2017 these areas are no longer part of Sulimani.
We need a ‘current’ official gov source not historic.
If you wanna map historic map of the district before 2017, you can map it here: https://openhistoricalmap.org/ but not OSM.
Best regards.

Dear mapper, I don't want you to stop editing here! NEVER! please don't! that would be a waste. I just asked you to use official sources ".gov.iq" to edit borders inside Iraq, using good changeset comments to describe your edits, and to communicate friendly. That's it.
Regards.

Hi, this is a top level domain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-level_domain
The sources I shared with you previously in your other changesets ends with this top level domain, which means they are an official Iraqi government websites.
Best regards.

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap, I see you have different name tags in name and name:ar as they don't match in node/10983330305 can you please share with us the name of the store so we can correct it? Thank you!

137450608 over 2 years ago

Hi, so “.gov.iq” is not an official Iraqi government domain? Regards.

137450608 over 2 years ago

I already provided many in the comments of the subject changeset.
Best Regards.

Dear user, Kifri is not part of Sulaimani, it's officially part of Diyala Governorate, and under the administrative control of Diyala Governorate and the Iraqi federal government, not the KRG.
The article 140 you mention it is for the areas the KRG wants to be included to its region, and this article doesn't guarantee it, it only says the people have the right to decide, which there is no official poll made that was recognized officially by the Iraqi government for this matter.
If the district was transferred administratively from the Iraqi federal government to the Kurdistan Regional Government, please share the official Iraqi government source that declared that there is no such thing. So please refine from such problematic edits and don't fiddle with the borders, this is not a game.
If you want to draw borders the way you like fictionally, head up to: https://opengeofiction.net/ and make up your own borders the way you like.
Best regards.

137450608 over 2 years ago

KRG map is not official and approved by the Federal government. As simple as that..
You shall only use the official Iraqi government map to draw boundaries within Iraq.
Best Regards.

137450608 over 2 years ago

Hello, I sent it to you previously in your other changeset an official map by the Iraqi government with governorate boundaries. Or if you want it the way you want from Baghdad the capital you can ask the GIS office and request any data you want.
Best regards.

137450608 over 2 years ago

Dear user, I'm sorry you feel that way. Please understand that what I asked is a requirement here to map in OSM.
If you need any help please reach out and I will be glad to help you.
Best regards and I wish you all the best.

137450608 over 2 years ago

Dear friend, that's not my rules that's the rules of OSM. When you edit such a big thing like a town name at least give a reason and source and explain in a good changeset comment what you edited and why.
I ask you to reconsider your decision and try to understand that using sources and good changeset comments are better for the map and communication is the key for OSM as it's a community based map.
Best regards.

137450608 over 2 years ago

Hello Muhammad Faiq Kalhury, I had reverted this changeset of yours as you changed the tag from town to a village which is clearly wrong, the size of this town is big and can not be a village.
You also changed the name of it without providing a valid source and reason for your changes.
Please add a good changeset comment and a valid source next time for your edits.
Best regards.

137450987 over 2 years ago

Hello Muhammad Faiq Kalhury, I see you changed the main name of this district. Your edit is incorrect, therefore I reverted your edits. Please refine from such edits, and next time please provide a good changeset comment and a source.
Best regards.

137437508 over 2 years ago

What you shared are not official maps that's approved by the Iraqi government. What you shared is from the Kurdistan region not the Iraqi government. so please, share an official Iraqi government source.
Best regards.

137437508 over 2 years ago

Dear mapper, here in OSM we map boundaries from the official government sources, If you have an Iraqi government source with a map to show what you claim, then you can fiddle up with the borders. otherwise you are not allowed to edit borders the way you want if it's not approved by the Iraqi government officially. The source must be official Iraqi government site ".gov.iq".
Best regards.

137437508 over 2 years ago

Hello again, what you shared are a 15 year old source, please share a recent one. in 2017 lots of areas that the Kurdish forces occupy illegally after 2003 returned to the federal government administration see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Iraqi%E2%80%93Kurdish_conflict. So please if you want to share any official source it must be after that date. And the map must follow the official Iraqi government maps.
Best Regards.

137437508 over 2 years ago

Dear friend, you are sharing non official government sources. the official border lines by Iraqi government you can see it in official sources like,
Diyala gov site: https://diyala.gov.iq/
You can scroll down and see the map, it include the areas where you cut from Diyala which is wrong.
Also, here is an interactive official gov map: https://saad.moch.gov.iq/sites/default/files/IraqMap_ar.html
And if you don't want official gov maps here are the map from wiki: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Diyala_map.svg
Or you can see the state of borders in other maps, like google map:
Diyala Governorate: https://goo.gl/maps/hb1pqmJhX7CpzjXE8
Sulaymaniyah Governorate: https://goo.gl/maps/LSvLZcyJMDU3CLP77
All of these source I sent you have the borders correctly matching the official Iraqi gov sources.
Best Regards.

Hello,
You said " I sent you several sources" where did you send it? You did not reply to my comments nor send a private messages, where is the government sources?
Please use official Iraqi government sources when you edit the borders.
Regards.
