"...the province of Iraq came under the control of the United Kingdom." Iraq was formed from the three Ottoman provinces of Mosul, Baghdad and Basrah. There was no Ottoman province called "Iraq". Fsotrain09 02:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Initially I suspected that the coat of arms used for the Iraqi monarchy was inaccurate, largely because the flags are not of Iraq but of Jordan, and are not the same as the one that is often thought of as being the flag of the Kingdom of Iraq. But according to [1] the flag would be valid for Iraq, and I assume then that the coat of arms may remain although the inscription is specific for Jordan. I can only assume that since both were Hashemite dynasties, they would have similar coats of arms.

The Jordanian Coat of Arms is also that of the entire Hashemite Dynasty- IIRC, the line placed on the Jordanian throne is the senior line of the family. The only coat of arms used for the Kingdom of Iraq itself, however, is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Iraq_royal_arms.PNG . I'm not sure why this image was removed from the page. -- 24.147.128.141 16:39, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
No; that's incorrect, both the Kings of Iraq and the Kings of Hejaz used arms different from those of the Kings of Jordan-all three are/were arms of dominion, meaning that in a monarchy, there is no distinction between the arms of the monarch and those of the state. And it's not a given that the arms of different branches of a royal house be similar: the arms of the Queen of Denmark, the Royal family of Norway, the royal family of Greece, and the children of Queen Elizabeth II are all different.

I created {{ Succession table monarch}} as I saw a need for it on WP. With dozens of articles having dozens of different ways of presenting the same information, it can be confusing or even frustrating for the reader, not knowing, upon reaching a "List of..." page, how the table is to be read, or finding, for example, that some tables provide dynasty or lifespan data but others don't.
Therefore, can I ask why the addition of the table in this article was reverted, especially to a version that gives less information than the new one? Claret Ash 11:31, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Which of the following two succession tables best presents a summary of the kings of Iraq?
