Result: Issues resolved. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:00, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

An article made a GA in 2011. My main concern with this article isn't a lack of sourcing (though there are two citation needed tags) but rather that it fails to be broad while also possibly needing updates. For broadness I'm specifically talking about the Jordanian Rule, Israeli Occupation, and Palestinian Autonomy sections. Each these sections consist solely of very short paragraphs, sometimes even being one sentence long, and it really feels as if more could be said here. The possibly needing update problem is how this article just seems to end at 2009. There is no mention of anything that after 2009. For example, the article mentions

"In 2009, the municipality reported a shortage of classrooms.[29]"

But there is no follow up on this afterwards, making it seem like Bani Na'im has had this shortage for a while. Onegreatjoke (talk) 05:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If I am wrong about my assumptions though then please tell me. Onegreatjoke (talk) 06:03, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Onegreatjoke: Agree that the article needs an update and will see about recent relevant developments, as well as updated statistics. For History, I was hard-pressed to find much information about this relatively small town to flesh out each period of rule. When the article passed GAN, the section was structured differently, with the British, Jordanian, Israeli and Palestinian periods all part of the same subsection. I support restoring this, rather than the current bare-bones subsections. But first I will see if more sources have become available to expand on the town's history.

Al Ameer son, did you find any more sources? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:27, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@AirshipJungleman29: Working on it. Only recent events I could find relate to the I/P conflict. Will see if the Palestinian government has updated statistics. Other than that, I do not anticipate more updates. Al Ameer (talk) 02:53, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may wish to scour the Palestinian government statistics website to see if you can find anything Al Ameer son. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:30, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I updated several statistics from the 2017 census and made some copyedits. Let me know your thoughts or suggestions. Al Ameer (talk) 03:04, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
