Geography

Asia me sheetkalin varsha ke chetra kau. Kaun se hai 27.60.96.221 ( talk) 16:46, 6 November 2022 (UTC) reply

What you're asking is unclear. Are you requesting that pictures of winter rain in Asia be added? If you are, could you suggest any suitable free or public-domain pictures? The Crab Who Played With The Sea ( talk) 13:35, 7 November 2022 (UTC) reply

Islam

Some sources ( Operation World) put Islam as the largest Asian religion at 26.4% Is there a reason why your source is undercounting or not including the Middle East? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 36.11.224.92 ( talk) 10:27, 27 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Lead first sentence

I feel like the first sentence of the lead is a bit clunky. I propose it should be changed from this:

Asia (/ˈeɪʒə/ (listen), also UK: /ˈeɪʃə/) is a continent which is part of Eurasia.

to this:

Asia (/ˈeɪʒə/ (listen), also UK: /ˈeɪʃə/) is a continent which, along with Europe, makes up the landmass Eurasia.

*UNSD Map incorrect

The map for Asia by the UNSD is incorrect. Iran is under South Asia, not west Asia. See reference.

Afghanistan

As Taliban government is not recognised in UN, then Wikipedia must show tricoloured flag (black, red and green) of Afghanistan. Zaki Frahmand, 10 August 2023, 13:48 AEST

Transcontinental Countries

Countries such as Turkey, Azerbaijan, Goergia, Russia and Kazakstan are transcontinatal and Wikipedia have to show only area of the country belong to Asia. Zaki Frahmand, 10 August 2023, 13:47 AEST

Mistake in the listing of countries

Abkhazia and South Ossetia are not independent contries. They are breakaway regions of the Republic of Georgia. Abkhazia and South Ossetia are Georgia!!! 185.70.54.84 ( talk) 10:12, 2 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Semi-protected edit request on 6 January 2024

An outdated info- The Republic of Artsakh has been fully taken by Azerbaijani forces in September 2023, and its governing authority was proclaimed to dissolve in 1 January 2024. But the state is still listed amongst the contemporary state groups. AyunaKawai ( talk) 13:20, 6 January 2024 (UTC) reply
