Description of suggested change: The current coat of arms shown in the syrian wikipedia seems to be wrong, currently the new government uses a different but similar coat of flag seen below.

well the new coat of arms had a changed font and a less golden color, but the image is low in quality Invisious (talk) 13:11, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Syrian Interior Ministry has published a map of Syria without a claim on Hatay. That’s clearly the new policy of the government. It shows that the old administration’s claim has been dropped. I don't believe that we should wait for some kind of a declaration to make it known because obviously this is a topic that they won't even take serious enough to make a statement. So I think that there is no meaning to put it on the top of the page. Until they make a statement on contrary (if ever), Wikipedia should reflect current realities rather than outdated historical positions. Without clear confirmation from the current leadership, maintaining the claim introduces bias and contradicts Wikipedia’s neutrality standards. There is no recent declaration or policy statement from Syria’s leadership supporting the Hatay claim, making it inaccurate to present it as an active territorial dispute. Therefore, I repeat my proposal for removing this claim unless there is verifiable, up-to-date evidence to support its inclusion. The existing mention in the international disputes section provides sufficient context, making further emphasis unnecessary. And we should also change the map according to that new reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by E3.akpinar (talk • contribs) 21:09, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

proof that the new syrian government doesn't recognize hatay as their land Invisious (talk) 15:28, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@E3.akpinar I removed this despite the hidden comment saying not to do so until the current government has denounced it because:

1) that light green area is too small to see on that map anyway

2) the map is just to show the location of the country not its extent Chidgk1 (talk) 12:28, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I don’t need new glasses - I could not see it because it has already been removed from the map! Chidgk1 (talk) 12:43, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please change the word "fal" to "fall" at the end of the 4th paragraph. It reads as "the fal of Assad's regime." when it should read as "the fall of Assad's regime." 2601:249:9580:3EB6:BC3B:9837:9DAB:3AA (talk) 22:46, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is the new Official coat of arms of Syria, as it is displayed in every post and update.

Hi wikis, please change the Coats of Arms of Syria to this (File:Coat of arms of Syria (2024–present).svg) the coats of arms appears on the Syrian prime minister's website (google translator). AbchyZa22 (talk) 12:26, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Change "Anthem: Homat ad-Diyar" to "Anthem: Fī Sabīli al-Majd (de facto)", citing sources such as online materials published by the Syrian Football Association (Posts on Instagram) Littau Eric (talk) 19:53, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

according to https://syria.liveuamap.com/, a site that updates territorial gains, news on the civil war, etc., the flag is wrong. The SDF controls a large swath of land extending from Dayr Hafir to Al Malikayah, as well as possessing lands to the south, running across the SNA's border to Iraq, at Al Qa'im.

The map is clearly wrong and needs to be updated, possibly a shaded region where the SDF controls territory, but at the very least the SDF not being represented on the map is a clear inaccuracy that needs to be adjusted. Cedaria00 (talk) 05:49, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wikis, I would like to thank the person who added the temporary national anthem. However, there are 2 things I would like to mention:

1. There is a misspelling in the temporary national anthem, the word الاخرى does not exist in the anthem, please change it to والاوطان.

2. The Former national anthem, Guardians of the homeland, is not used anymore and it is related to the previous regime, therefore it should be removed.

Thanks :) Invisious (talk) 20:27, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Someone has completed the request. Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 14:52, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Remove a single word from the title of Syria's secondary and temporary anthem as added in this revision. The title should be changed from:

فِي سَبِيلِ المجدالأخرى

to:

فِي سَبِيلِ المجد

The word الأخرى means "the other" and is not part of the actual anthem. It seems to have been copied into the title by accident. I welcome letting an arabic speaking extended-confirmed editor review this request to ensure than no other mistake is made during the change. DE1012 (talk) 14:12, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, is it possible if you can add the audio for the temporary national anthem? That would be great Invisious (talk) 21:22, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For the languages section, if you want to add Arabic dialects, then please consider adding the Mesopotamian dialect as well, which is spoken in the Syrian Jazeera, i.e. the governorates of Deirezzor, Raqqa, and Hasaka. Meaninglesscharacter (talk) 18:53, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Since this isn't a proper edit request, there is no need to close it. M.Bitton (talk) 23:09, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@AbchyZa22: FYI That is the Council of Ministers seal, not the unofficial Coa. The one in the article (the current one) is widely used when compared to the Council or Ministers seal. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 23:39, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
