I wonder, is there really a reliable source for the claim that a part of the West Bank is called "Samaria"? To me, it appears to be Israel-specific (and thus POV) terminology. I suggest simply "The northern part of the West Bank". MeteorMaker ( talk) 10:04, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

WP:WESTBANK makes it fairly clear saying something is "in Shomron", which "Barkan, Shomron" does, is disallowed. From that guideline: The terms "Samaria" or "Judea" cannot be used without qualification in the NPOV neutral voice; for example, it cannot be asserted without qualification that a place is "in Samaria". The Hebrew usage here does not negate that. If it is necessary to disambiguate by regional council it needs to be clear that what is discussed is the regional council and not a place name. nableezy - 23:46, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
Per WP:PRIMARY TOPIC, this page is the primary topic and should be moved back to Barkan. The disambiguation page currently at Barkan should be moved to Barkan (disambiguation), which should then be linked to from a hatnote at Barkan. Of the four place names listed on the dab page, Barkan, Fars gets 43 hits in the last 20 days, Barkan, Nowshahr gets 2, Barkan, Yemen gets 13 and Barkan, Shomron gets 52 in only 2 days. This is strong evidence that this page is the primary topic. I have not considered the people listed because, as far as I am aware, none of them is commonly referred to by his or her last name (in contrast to, for example, Churchill). Since a disambiguator is unnecessary, there is no need for any dispute as to what it should be. -- NSH001 ( talk) 22:46, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved — Amakuru ( talk) 18:50, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
