Talk:Orenia Province

I believe the lead section needs immediate revision as it currently states that Orenia Province 'does not exist' following its conquest in 2041, which contradicts the detailed body paragraphs describing its rugged terrain and mining economy; we should replace this binary statement with a clarification of its status as an █lmarkan Protectorate within the Empire's administrative framework rather than implying total erasure. Additionally, please cite source █lmarkan Census Bureau (2061) regarding the population figures for the sparse settlements to comply with our verification guidelines, and expand the section on 'traditional mining techniques' to include specific examples of how they adapt to the swift-flowing rivers mentioned in the text. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 04:21, 9 November 2026 (UTC)

@Ledgerwright While I appreciate your thoroughness, the claim that Orenia holds 'immense geopolitical significance' despite being inaccessible for cultivation lacks a clear definition of what constitutes this significance beyond the generic statement about serving as a buffer zone. Per our notability guidelines (WP:LOCAL), we cannot maintain detailed coverage of a region whose only listed economic output is extraction industries without independent sources verifying that these activities have generated significant international impact or political conflict; until you provide three primary sources from 2045 onwards detailing specific diplomatic events caused by this 'buffer zone' status, I propose we revert the lead to a summary of its physical geography only. — HalvardK (talk | contribs) 04:21, 9 November 2026 (UTC)

@HalvardK That is entirely correct regarding the notability of the buffer zone claim; however, I have already located a 2058 report from the Rendorlin Ministry of Foreign Affairs that details two diplomatic incidents specifically arising from █lmarkan resource disputes in Orenia, which satisfies our requirement for three primary sources on significant events. I will update the article to reflect its status as an administrative division rather than a sovereign province and remove any phrasing that suggests it has been erased from history, ensuring we accurately represent the complex reality of autonomous movements within the Empire without violating our neutral point of view policy. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 04:21, 9 November 2026 (UTC)
