Better Map

edit

How about a better map? I should be able to find Tikrit and Fallujah. Pschroeter 20 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Provinces

edit

How about a list of the 18 provinces with their capital cities?

Sounds good. Go for it. -- Infrogmation

Place names

edit

Does anyone have enough Arabic to be able to render these place names in that language? Most of the linked articles only give the place names in Latin script. -- ChrisO 20:06, 10 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Isam, thanks for all your work in doing this. Much appreciated. -- ChrisO 16:30, 12 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Spelling

edit

For general info - A good place to check the spelling of Iraqi place names is the US National Geospatial Intelligence Agency's GEOnet Names Server - see http://earth-info.nima.mil/gns/html/ . -- ChrisO 10:02, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Syriac?

edit

What is the third language into which some of the place names are transcribd? Not English, not Arabic. It looks like Syriac. Is it spoken in these areas or what? --LakeHMM 02:51, 29 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Kurdish

edit

The places should also have their Kurdish names and spelling i.e. the kurdish cities etc.
