Merge edit

Propose to merge October 2012 Jordanian–Syrian border clash and April 2014 Jordanian–Syrian border airstrike into Syrian–Jordanian border incidents during the Syrian Civil War, in order to create a more comprehensive article. Each incident on its own is barely notable.GreyShark (dibra) 06:02, 6 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Support: since there have been numerous other incidents of this type and having a single article for each is impractical. Makeandtoss (talk) 20:41, 20 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Map edit

How can we get a close up map on the Jordanian Syrian borders instead of a map of the Middle East highlighting the two countries? Makeandtoss (talk) 00:10, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

@Makeandtoss: I think we should have both: a picture of the 2 countries highlighted, and a close-up of the border. But I can't find anything related to the border on Commons. Do you think adding geocodes will help? Maybe we can have pictures as well/instead... --Flycatchr 08:44, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
I don't know how to do maps, but there's a form on Wikipedia where you can request graphic volunteers for a map. Its pretty slow, considering that your request may take over a year.. Makeandtoss (talk) 10:21, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
@Makeandtoss: Link me to the the form please. I can probably make one in the next week, what areas should I focus on? --Flycatchr 10:33, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop Probably not worth the effort to request a map in that workshop, but making a map similar to Wikipedia's format is better. But if thats not an option then go ahead... It should probably be something like this or this. Makeandtoss (talk) 11:02, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! --Flycatchr 09:56, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Should this be a list article? edit

Just wondering whether this should qualify as a list article... so: "List of Jordanian-Syrian border incidents during the Syrian Civil War" --Flycatchr 08:46, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
