Please read this notification carefully:
A community decision has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to the Syrian Civil War and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. The details of these sanctions are described here. All pages that are broadly related to these topics are subject to a one revert per twenty-four hours restriction, as described here.
General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Cizire Canton has been identified as a reliable source despite being pro-Kurd for previous edits on the Syrian Civil War map. Also, why is using a map as a source for edits forbidden?Prohibited Area (talk) 13:40, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Prohibited Area you forgot to read the top of the talk page: Important message from creator of map: Please read. Some times I do not see why we should not use maps, but that does not matter. As for Cizire Cantons I don´t know how reliable he is… I can say I hope he is right but as an example I can say that there has been no reports of that the cities along M4 highway Abwah and Surab Sharqiya have been captured by YPG. No reports what so ever, the only one stating that the are i under YPG control is him. There is another pro-kurd map-maker sylezjusz that is in constant conflict with Cizire Canton and he has yet not shown YPG persons in the mentioned area.Rhocagil (talk) 14:47, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Cizire Canton has been used in the past however it is a pro-Kurd source. It frustrates me that you cant use reliable sources for advances if they favour he advancing party whilst you can use apparently unreliable sources for retreats of favourable party. Sources should be based on reliability not on whether they favour a party to the conflict. I havent found any sources specifically relating to the liberation of the villages along the M4 but have found some sources claiming the M4 is under YPG control, most however are pro-Kurdish Prohibited Area (talk) 14:58, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Prohibited Area Yes i know it has been used a lot of times and the rules of editing have as well been broken a lot of times. And i f you see any sources of M4 please present them, news is always interesting. What bothers me with the maps today is that this map published today by Cizire Canton and this map published today by Sylezjusz have many differences. What bothers me especially is that Sylezjusz indicates SAA presence to the north-west. Witch of those should we trust? I think both guys have local connections. Rhocagil (talk) 16:42, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
The sources are just maps which are not viable sources for editing the map, however they are made from a variety of amateur sources. In regards to the maps I would trust Sylezjusz as the SAA was known to hold positions west of Hasakah city prior to the ISIS offensive. I don't think ISIS ever attacked these positions and there has been no reports of YPG-SAA conflict in these areas therefore suggesting that the SAA are still present unless they have since withdrawn.

SAA recaptured Hawareen and Tall Daher hill.source so this clearly confirms that ISIS retreated and Hadath under SAA also earlier Hadat was erroneously marked as contested because then source only said that clashes was near Hadath but not inside village.here
