comments

I would say that the article is not neutral and rather inaccurate. The author comments that though it is not recognized, it deserves a separate box. It could have its separate box but the question is to call everything their internationally recognized names. So It is not a republic but a breakaway region and it is ridiculous to put all the state symbols there.

Also a short comment on the history section. Before the Russian anexation of Georgia "South Ossetia" did not simply exist. There were no Ossetian settlements in that region and were artificially created later on.

Date of indepedence

Did South Ossetia declare independence on November 28, 1991, as the main Misplaced Pages article on the country claims, or on September 20, 1990, as is frequently cited in scholarly articles and in this Misplaced Pages article Georgian-Ossetian_conflict#Origins_of_the_Conflict? It is also worth noting that September 20 appears to be the day chosen by the South Ossetian state as its independence day.

Old citation needed tags

Should that Roki tunnel one at the end that says that South Ossetia gets a third of it's income from the Roki tunnel also come off?

Administrative divisions of Georgia

I think we should remove {{Administrative divisions of Georgia}} template. Reasons:

1) it doesn't link the article;
2) there is no such thing as South Ossetia according to the Georgian Constitution. Georgian officials call it "South Ossetia". — Taamu (talk) 14:49, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Agreed and done. --Xeeron (talk) 15:32, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Evidence of illegal state

I have provided evidence that this state is illegal, above the fact that the US/Nato and international community including the UN fail to recognize South Ossetia & Abkhazia. A distinguished and highly revered and respected historian who is an absolute genius and knows everything about everything on the Balkans (better than locals even) published this report.
If you read it, he weighs out all the evidence as to both how Kosova is legal and the two Georgian states are not. It is now on the article and it is fully reliable and true. When I find more as such, I'll add them. A Balanced View (talk) 12:03, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
