Talk:Sulaymaniyah

message: This is a kurdish city, in Kurdish written and called (Silemani) not (Sulaymaniyah) which came from Arabic. Serchia (talk) 16:35, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is that, being a Kurdish name that is written in Sorani, it has many variations in spelling. Sulaymaniyah seems to be the one used in a lot of English maps which is probably why this article is Sulaymaniyah. ~ Zirguezi 23:23, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe that the most accurate spelling of the name in Kurdish is "Slemani". But I think we should leave it just as it is.—‎Lost Whispers talk 00:56, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

message: This article seems to be unable to shake the "needs additional citations for verification" template which has been there for years. Whoever added the template did not provide us with feedback about what exactly needs verification. As far as I can see there aren't any controversial claims and other than a few questionable sources everything seems reliably sourced. I'd like to invite everyone patrolling or watching this article to provide their input so we can improve the article. If no objections are raised I'd like to remove the template from the article. ~ Zirguezi 11:03, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello Zirguezi, thank you for the note.  There are a few latent unsourced claims and red links which have stagnated.  In the interest of compliance with WP:V policy, will be archiving these to page history while removing the template as well.  Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 20:33, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

message: Population of Sulaymaniyah 690,600 http://www.citypopulation.de/Iraq-Cities.html  — Preceding unsigned comment added by BaranKurd (talk • contribs) 17:06, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Population numbers seem to be all over the place due to the lack of a reliable census in Iraq for decades now. The link you provided is being used for this article now "Population (2018) Total 676,500". However is should be noted that, per the website itself, all those numbers are actually estimates based in the last Iraqi census that seems to have been in 1997. However the Kurdish provinces weren't actually part of this census so the 1997 numbers for the Kurdish provinces is actually an estimate based on a census that goes back even further. Suffice to say we desperately need better sources. The most reliable and somewhat recent source I could find was the American University of Sulaymaniyah which gives a rough estimate of 800.000 in 2018: https://auis.edu.krd/life-in-sulaimani . Unless someone can find a better source I will be changing it shortly ~ Zirguezi 20:36, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

message: this article is EXTREMELY dated and there are alot of conflicting and flat out wrong information, I live here but i wouldn't know how I would rewrite this, our history is very badly kept and VERY one sided to a point when I was taught in school they just kept glorifying stuff that just weren't great, history in the middle east is very neglected so idk how you would go about fixing this article, I'm definitely not the guy to do that so I'm not even gonna try Flawlesshbeing (talk) 07:07, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

message: I don't think the Sherwana Castle belongs on this page because it's not located in Sulaymaniyah it's located in another city south of Sulaymaniyah called Kalar,
I guess whoever put Sherwana Castle got confused because Kalar is in the same province with Sulaymaniyah and that province is also named Sulaymaniyah after the city Sulaymaniyah. Tütig Seg (talk) 19:36, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
