I don't think illegal Kurdish terrorists such as Abdullah Ocalan should be considered as "politicians". They are simply not politicians, but mere terrorists.

Care to explain why you changed the template? I disagree with including the different countries, simply because many of those countries did not exist hundreds of years back. For example - Saladin is currently under Iraq, but there was no Iraq during his time. I can also see that there's already an entry on this, by Vekoler.

I think Abdullah Ocalan should be considered as politicians. Whether he is a terrorist, this is a subjective opinion. It is not objective. But he is a politician for millions of kurds. That should be respected.

==The page is about Renowned Kurds==
Agreed. However the list is about Kurdish personalities in politics, literature and science. Al-Kurdi, isnot well known among Kurds, while this list is about '''Renowned Kurds'''. You can include it in a list of Kurdish terrorists. He is not neither a writer nor a poet nor a politician. However, please note that I amnot pushing a POV, since '''Mulla Krekar''' another controversial figure and also Ocalan ( considered to be terrorist in the West) are included. The reason for their inclusion, is that these two are well known figures, both were leading political parties (though violent). But this guy ''Al-Kurdi'' is at most an obscure figure, he doesnot head any recognizable movement and his name has been mentioned only once in a news article. So I don't think that he is qualified to be considered a ''well-known'' personality.

== Vandalism ==
The following individuals were removed from the list by a certain user, with the argument that there's "no source" to support them to being Kurdish:

];

]

All of these individuals and families actually do have sources to confirm that they're Kurdish (or could have been) in their articles, or are generally well-known to be Kurds. Thus, I'm reverting his edit. (the only one which is really debatable is ibn Fadlan)
Moreover, he claims Nezami Ganjavi had a Persian father, which is not certain at all; the only thing that's certain is that his mother was Kurdish. ] (]) 10:50, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

*Ok, this bullshit by that Pakteenat guy is getting out of hand. He keeps removing ] from the list, which, as you can see in his article, was of (maternal) Kurdish descent. He was born into the ], a tribe which still exists today and is ethnically Kurdish, furthermore he was '''said to be of Kurdish descent by a contemporary of his'''. By paternal descent he might be Persian, yes, but that does not take away that he's partially Kurdish as well. Whether the term 'Kurd' was a social term back then is still debatable, since it appears also to describe a group of people (led by ]), which revolted against the Sassanids. ] (]) 09:01, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

== Classification ==

I have been editing this page for a long time and believe the best way to present Kurdish personalities is to sort them according to their professions. The recent classification based on country of origin can be confusing and historically inaccurate as many of the poets and writers and statesmen from before 20th century can not be correctly identified as being '''Iraqi''', '''Syrian''' or '''Turkish''' since these countries did not exist back then. One could think of adding ''Ottoman'' section but then probably we need ''Abbassid'' and ''Ummayyad'' and ''Mongol'' sections as well. and how would you calssify ''Saladin''? Caucasian (his family came from Dvin), Iraqi (resided in Tikrit) or Egyptian (ruled the country)? The best method is to classify in accordance with profession. ] (]) 14:25, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

==Template==
To ]. Please stop remove template. I found many wrong information in this list. Some of them are not Kurds, but Turks, Zazas etc... when you have a time, could you provide reliable sources ? ] (]) 13:05, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Ismail I

Hi Folks, this is currently a list of link-spam, with no indication of why these people are notable. Currently it is a list of names, with no indication why they are important.
