I would suggest revising the sections on the history of Eastern and Western Iranian peoples. Firstly, the division into Eastern and Western is a linguistic one and not necessarily the best way to distinguish between different cultural groups. In fact, the section on Eastern Iranian peoples includes only Steppe-Iranian peoples who spoke languages that are categorised as Eastern but lived north or even west of the Western Iranians and are culturally very different from the Iranian peoples in the eastern part of the Iranian plateau. Moreover, Avestan is not an eastern Iranian language, but is so old that it preceded the division is west vs. east. Secondly, it is the people who lived in the eastern parts of ] who gave their name to this somewhat confusing category, but they are absent from this part of the article. Thirdly, I would suggest adding a section on the ] who actually lived in the eastern part of Greater Iran and are not yet covered in this article. ] (]) |

|
So a while back I had this back and forth with user Aintabli. |
|
|
This article, the article for Iranian Azerbaijanis has clear census on the simple fact that Azerbaijanis (at least the ones in Iran) are Iranian people based on common culture, common history, common nationality, and even more importantly for this discussion common genetics. |
|
|
This article literally refers to Iranian Azerbaijanis at later parts and groups them in the CIC as they should be by all genetics evidence. |
|
|
When I simply added Azeris to the list of modern Iranian people the said user repeatedly edited my addition despite me pointing out in edit notes that I am just adding something that should already be there. |
|
|
I would like to have this issue solved. |
|
|
Is there any actual source that is some how refuting the existing reputable sources in this article that we are all missing? |

Because otherwise my very minimalist and simple addition should be reinstated ] (]) 02:18, 26 January 2024 (UTC) |

::Brazilians speak Portuguese and many African people speak french and native Americans speak English. Also we have Iranian people listed right in this article that no longer speak Iranian languages in their majority like Ossetians, or the portion of Iranian people that settled in eastern europe. ] (]) 02:23, 26 January 2024 (UTC) |

::an even more fun example, are French people Italian? after all they speak a latin language, so they can not be germanic people as we know Franks were. |
|
|
::They must be Italian. |
|
|
::The logic of defining people's ethnicity and descent based on language is extremely flawed and disregards how dynamic language is. |
|
|
::Are the Scotts English? |
|
|
::Are the Normans of England not Scandinavian descent because they speak english? Were the persian speaking Ottoman kings that even wrote poems in persian Iranian then? |
|

::It is simple, genealogy does not care about your language when it studies your genes, and anthropology does not look at your language and go "Ah that decides it, these people in south africa speaking english are brits" ] (]) 03:03, 27 January 2024 (UTC) |
