Since I see just about any reference to Tibet in this one category, plus both articles mentioned earlier, we might as well treat it as reference to both as well. Of do you have anything concrete to suggest? List this in Categories of countries?--Huaiwei 23:11, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Perhaps we can now treat this category as reference to both, unless there're some other users object it.
By the way, Tibet is at the time being not a sovereign State. — Instantnood 06:55, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
But the definition of a country is fluid isnt it? In that sence, Tibet is a country too, especially as far as some Tibetans are concerned. :D --Huaiwei 07:46, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Very true. — Instantnood 10:05, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
So why dont you do that now? Meanwhile, perhaps you might want to do the same for ALL other similar cases? Looking though Category:Disputed territories might help. ;) --Huaiwei 10:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
What do I have to do, and why do I have to do that? — Instantnood 13:12, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
Add them to country lists? Afterall for one, you insisted that the term country can be interpreted differently (which is true), and all these territories probably qualify, and secondly, arent you a stickler for "consistency"? Meanwhile, I still have no idea what you really want to do to this category.--Huaiwei 14:12, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
The articles in this category already tells you what they are supposed to represent. Unless you find a need to break it up that is. If so, just say so, and dont beat around the bush.--Huaiwei 15:21, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
By convention, whatever lists of "countries/regions" cover only sovereign States, and entities that demonstrate certain level of independence (unless for some ad hoc reasons, such as Scotland for football events). Excuse me for my ignorance, I have never seen Tibet being listed on such lists. — Instantnood 14:58, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
Scotland has its own parliament, and btw if you did not realise, the United Kingdom is indeed made up of four countries. Go check it out yourself. Perhaps in your quest for "accuracy", you will now go about insisting that they should ditch the name 'united kingdom" and only list the four countries in country lists?--Huaiwei 15:21, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I know. But you'd seldom encounter a list of countries/regions with Scotland or Tibet, but Hong Kong and Bermuda. — Instantnood 16:37, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
