Portal:Kurdistan

The Portal focus on Kurdish-related articles only unlike any other geographic portal. Compare/contrast with Portal:Asia which not only focuses to a variety of topics but also a vast number of wikiprojects.
Kurdistan is a non-defacto (it doesn't claim to be a country) and non-dejure (no one recognizes it as a country) region. Kurdistan however is an aspirational country (WP:CRYSTAL)
Kurdistan's borders are ill-defined. (google image search, some examples of inconsistent maps: ). Hence the scope of the portal is also ill defined.
Boundaries of Kurdistan are currently defined at the moment by wikipedia editors' personal opinions on what falls inside and what doesn't rather that being based on reliable sources. So topics displayed often violate Misplaced Pages:Attribution#No original research and/or Misplaced Pages:Attribution#Reliable sources
Kurdistan exists as a dictionary entry, however Kurdistan is a controversial term. For example displaying a map of it to Turkish authorities had lead to a Pentagon apology. While controversial terms as project/portal titles are somewhat 'OK', I strongly feel they should be avoided whenever possible.
