We got rid of the telephone code system because various mappers in the community kept trying to impose their vision of a telephone code system upon the world instead of letting the community choose the codes organically, which created conflict. If we can do better this time, I think we'll be more successful at maintaining this list. The one condition I think we need to keep is the three-digit requirement so that there are enough codes to allocate around the world. Otherwise, we could do two-digit with shared codes between countries. [[User:Chazeltine|Chazeltine]] ([[User talk:Chazeltine|talk]]) 14:30, 4 December 2023 (UTC) | |||
Revision as of 14:30, 4 December 2023
This is my sketch of how I remember the calling codes' assignment listed on Wiki 1.0.
Some countries on OGF Data spreadsheet kept the old code while some other countries came up with the new one.
I do understand that keeping this thing standard for everyone will end up in a failure, but hey, it worked pretty well before Wiki 1.0 ceasing, so at least we can try.

- I prefer this proposal over others. Many countries in West Uletha already have +2x(x) as their phone codes. -- Mie (talk) 08:19, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
- I also think we should keep the old system. It's simple and intuitive so it's possible to work. Also there is no reason to change. --Rustem Pasha (talk) 09:42, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
