Original: After Israel occupied the West Bank in the 1967 Six-Day War, the Palestinians there remained Jordanian citizens until Jordan renounced claims to and severed administrative ties with the territory in 1988.[citation needed]

Remove/replace humiliating symbol from a name

edit

Please remove or replace the cross symbol next to Mickey Marcus in the chart. It is particularly humiliating when Christians use it when referring to Jews, regardless of any meaning they intend or do not intend by it. 2003:F9:6F1B:5500:A5A1:257B:AB22:C8CD (talk) 01:04, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Done. The 'alternative' template that just displays (KIA) should probably be the standard template. Sean.hoyland (talk) 01:35, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
It’s not a cross, rather a dagger symbol. Represents that a commander was killed in battle The Great Mule of Eupatoria (talk) 02:08, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
The IP might be interested in Dagger (mark), but these kinds of things seem like easily avoidable ambiguities given the alternative (KIA) template. 'Is that a dagger or a Holy Lance?' seems like the kind of question that is not impossible thanks to Murphy's Law. Sean.hoyland (talk) 02:48, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
