:::The list has included non-sovereign territories since it was created, so I don't think they sould be removed. And not all of the unrecognised countries are completely unrecognised. The problem with only including 'recognised' countries is that it would likely end up leading to edit wars, like for example, a Saudi user removing the Israeli tag because they don't recognise them. I'd consider Sealand to be in a different category, since 4 people live there. Don't know how to properly reply to the EU one, but it's more of an international organisation than a country. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 12:16, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

::::OK then, although I still think we should remove Udmurtia since there are another 25 russian republics, and we shouldn't IMHO include them in this list for the same reason we don't include all 50 US states (we instead put them in a separate list, could we perhaps do the same for Russia?). And the EU is an "economic and political union or confederation". It ceased being merely an "international organisation" ever since the Lisbon Treaty.

:::::I'll remove the Russian republics, but though I would support a seperate list for them, they wouldnt be notable for their own list like America's states have. I think the reason we have the state list is because there are [[:Category:Users from the United States|hundreds]] of users that identify as American, but there's only [[:Category:Users from Russia|7 users]] that identify themselves as Russian. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 21:14, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
