Remove weasel word from article

The introduction mentions the “so-called Palestine 194 Campaign. This is an inappropriate phrase for Misplaced Pages, conveying disagreement with the campaign by insinuating that the movement should not be called as such. At best, the inclusion of “so-called” is nonsensical, at worst it is an impotent attempt at attacking the campaign. Either way, the phrase does not belong. 2601:58B:4500:1010:A897:9AF2:5DAD:D18E (talk) 19:54, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

140

It's not 140 of 193 UN members. It's 138 of 193 UN members plus 2 non-UN members (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and Vatican City) Please, correct it. Fernan860 (talk) 18:12, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

AJ says it is 139 and a quick search shows other sources also saying 139, you provided no source, why do you think it is 138? Selfstudier (talk) 18:20, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
In the article International recognition of the State of Palestine there are two tables. One table shows (one by one) the UN full member states that recognize Palestine (138) and another shows the UN full member states that do not recognize Palestine (55), which adds up to 193, which are the full member states of the UN. The fact that the Vatican City/Holy See (a UN observer state but not a full member and, therefore, not included in those 193 mentioned) and the Sahwari Republic (partially recognized state and not UN member) recognize Palestine creates confusion about the number in some media.
139 UN States recognize Palestine but not 139 of 193, but rather 138 of 193 + 1 "extra" member (Vatican City/Holy See). On the UN website (https://web.archive.org/web/20180927134802/http://palestineun.org/about-palestine/diplomatic-relations) it can be seen that in 2018 there were 137 States of the UN (including the Vatican City/Holy See). After recognition by Colombia and Saint Kitts and Nevis (which do not appear on that UN list because it is not updated), there are 139 UN States (138 of the 193 full members plus the Vatican City/Holy See)
Additionally, If you add the Sahrawi Republic there are 140 States, but by no means 140 of 193, but 138 of 193 + Vatican City/Holy See + Sahrawi Republic.
In the next links (among others), figure 138 of 193:

Fernan860 (talk) 18:30, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
WP is not a source so can't go by that. The BBC attributes that statement to someone called Walker. The last one might be useful as it gives a list of 55 states not recognizing Palestine. I wonder if the problem might be Mexico, there seems to be some doubt about that one.
El Pais says 139
So does DW and NPR
Maybe we still have some work to do to reconcile this. Selfstudier (talk) 18:47, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
I think the UN link (https://web.archive.org/web/20180927134802/http://palestineun.org/about-palestine/diplomatic-relations) is the best source. As I said, it can be seen that in 2018 there were 137 UN States (including Vatican City/Holy See). After the recognition of Colombia, Saint Kitts and Nevis and now, Barbados (which do not appear on that UN list because it is not updated), there are 140 UN States (139 of the 193 full members plus Vatican City/Holy See)
The New York Times says " 138 countries and the Holy See have recognized the State of Palestine." (before Barbados' recognition) (see https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/18/world/middleeast/palestinian-statehood-un-veto.html) Fernan860 (talk) 20:04, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Spain has long had de facto diplomatic relations with Palestine, only now they have increased, they are very positive symbolic relationships. 94.73.55.220 (talk) 18:50, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
