Independent country now?

Recent edits by user @Modazadi5: seem to have made Kurdistan an independent country, established a central bank and currency, moved the capital, etc. I for one wasn't aware of these developments, nor are there reliable sources supporting any of that. I propose to revert all these edits back to the pre-Feb 6 state, but wanted to discuss first before making such a wholesale reversion.

Climate - missing Köppen classification

In the climate section, the Mediterranean influence on the climate (dry summers) is not directly mentioned (though it is on the page for Erbil, whose climate data table is used here), and the Köppen classification (which I believe is BShCsa typically, and a matter of routine calculation) is not given at all, although this may be because this is the Kurdistan Region page, and such a wide area cannot have a homogenic climate.

Outdated data

All the data on the economy, HDI and Gini factors seem to be from 2015 and 2014. Is there a more modern source on the region's economy? Silveratractic (talk) 18:34, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Climate classification

The article cannot classify the region as semi arid here, but as hot summer Mediterranean in the article Iraqi Kurdistan. דולב חולב (talk) 05:16, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like you are just reverting every edit i’m doing. דולב חולב (talk) 05:17, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My problem with this edit was not the classification you provided. Also please read my comments at Talk: Beijing. Uness232 (talk) 05:21, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’ve read it. So… what was your problem with this edit? You’re not going to expect my edit even if it’s right? דולב חולב (talk) 05:24, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@דולב חולב I do not find the mess of ungrammatical and unformatted text that you added an improvement. I also think that, especially as the current wording was already sourced, you should have at least sourced your statement. Uness232 (talk) 05:43, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Isn’t Iraqi Kurdistan a reliable source? דולב חולב (talk) 05:46, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia can not cite Wikipedia. Uness232 (talk) 05:56, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But come on, you know from the stats of most of the cities in the region that most of the region has a Mediterranean climate. דולב חולב (talk) 08:05, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
