title: States of requests (InformataZyrtare)

# Request states: example comparison
<p class="lead">
This page shows differences between states used on two different
Alaveteli instances — one in Kosovo and one in the UK. This
is a practical example showing that you can customise the states that
your site uses.
</p>
The request states are defined in the Alaveteli code, and we recommend you use
them (provided they match the <a href="{{ site.baseurl }}docs/glossary/#foi"
class="glossary__link">FOI law</a> in your own jurisdiction).
## InformataZyrtare.org (Kosovo) example
Requests made on Kosovo's Alaveteli instance,
[InformataZyrtare](http://informatazyrtare.org), use slightly different states
from those on the UK's instance, [WhatDoTheyKnow](http://www.whatdotheyknow.com)
(WDTK).
Generally, this arises simply because the local legislation, or the way the
groups running the sites work, are different in different places. Alavateli
facilitates this by allowing you to customise the states that are used.
This example is to show clearly that you can use different states depending on
your local requirements, and how that might look. See [Customising the request
states]({{ site.baseurl }}docs/customising/themes/) for details on how to do this.
### States used by InformataZyrtare but not WDTK
* <a href="#deadline_extended">deadline_extended</a>
* <a href="#partial_rejected">partial_rejected</a>
* <a href="#wrong_response">wrong_response</a>
### States used by WDTK but not InformataZyrtare
