Why did so many nations in Latin America leave the League? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davetoms ( talk • contribs) 19:04, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
I hope by changing these to "founding members" I didn't offend any local dialect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.102.210.163 ( talk) 23:36, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Argentina left in 1921 after the failure of a resolution, and resumed full membership in 1931. Map must be changed. Tazmaniacs ( talk) 16:53, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
The image Image:Symbol of the League of Nations.svg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

Endreus ( talk) 22:55, 4 January 2010 (UTC)I think there's an error on the map and also on the list, because Ethiopia became an Italian colony in 1936, so I think it must be specified if the former Negus keep it while he was not on charge. Or it need to be changed in left in 1937 as Italian colony also in the map, it never has the colony color. To check just search here on Wikipedia any Italian history link.
An edit late last year added some incorrect information about the expulsion of Finland. Finland was never expelled from the LoN, and certainly not for "aggression against the USSR". Apart from the editor's unverifiable 'source', there is no other evidence for this claim. A primary LoN document dated from 1944, hosted on a university website, includes Finland on the list of members [1]. It also includes Albania, Denmark and Luxembourg, so I have removed their withdrawal dates as well. Having said that, I did only cursory checks before doing so, so if someone can cite their withdrawals, then fine. (Would a withdrawal under duress/invasion count though? e.g. Free French did not recognise Vichy France's withdrawal. Could those countries' resistance movements have done the same?) -- Tankman182 ( talk) 12:34, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
Czechoslovakia was present at the last meeting of the Assembly in 1946 (see [2] for list of attending member states; above cited list from 1944 also mentions Czechoslovakia), so I added it to the respective list (members at end of League). Czechoslovakia never formaly left League until its final dissolution. However, pure legal continuity between pre-war and post-war Czechoslovakia is another question...-- Pavlor ( talk) 00:17, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
Hejaz appears to be missing from this list and the map. See p.13 of this. The list of founding members in the article is not consistent with this source (the Treaty of Sèvres. Oncenawhile ( talk) 13:06, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
A usual problem is the two-standards one. For instance, Austria appears as "ceased to exist" or Czechoslovakia as "occupied (by Nazi Germany)", and the Baltic Republics as "conquered and annexed (by the USSR)", which at the mininum is confuse. The plain fact is all these states ceased to exist to be annexed by others (and of course in the former cases reverted to the original situation sooner), and any of the three chosen sentences can be applied to any of the cases. The difference of course is in the case of Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic or Austria the matter is far away in historical terms, and with the Baltic Republics I imagine the problem is near enough to play a political useful role to many people. But I don't think this was a NPOV, nor useful for the Wikipedia itself. 91.117.8.27 ( talk) 20:07, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
Newfoundland ceased to be a colony of anyone in 1907. It might have let the UK handle foreign policy, but it was a Dominion, the same status as Canada. Newfoundland did not seek to join the League of Nations, so should be indicated as a nonmember. -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 01:43, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
It did not revert to colony status. It was technically still a Dominion. -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 15:13, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
The Wikipedia article Dominion of Newfoundland says "After the war, Newfoundland along with the other dominions sent a separate delegation to the Paris Peace Conference but, unlike the other dominions, Newfoundland did not sign the Treaty of Versailles in her own right, nor did she seek a separate membership in the League of Nations." That same article says, referring to the Commission of Government, "Newfoundland remained a dominion in name only"which implies that it still legally was a dominion. The question of Commission of Government would still leave the period before 1934. And the interesting question of the non-adhesion to the Statute of Westminster would still leave Nfld in the same situation as Canada before 1931.

Thanks. I'll wait a bit to see if anyone else wants to chime in. In the meantime, I can't figure out how to edit a map so it might stay this way for a while. Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 21:48, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello, can somebody please fix the incorrect status of the Irish Free State, which joined in August 1923, separate from the other Dominions completely, and was not automatically included due to Great Britain's - or the British Empire's - membership in 1920 as is implied by its complete omission?
India was never separately represented, as it was never a Dominion and remained a Colony in all but name until independence in 1947? The link to some Archive Machine is also wrong regarding its list of states and inductions.
The transitional map also misrepresents these facts.
