Infobox text in “Armenians in the Ottoman Empire” incorrect
There is a miscount in the Infobox to the right of the “Armenians in the Ottoman Empire” subtitle. Another of the editors’ absurdities. Listed are five vilayets but then the text says that they represented “the six most heavily Armenian-populated Ottoman vilayets”. Sivas, the sixth one, is missing, dearest editors. And one falsification of an RS text in ref. 4. Nowhere on p. 279 does Kévorkian (The Armenian Genocide: A Complete History) say that these vilayets were “the six most heavily Armenian-populated Ottoman vilayets”. This is what the author says on p. 279, ad verbum: “According to the figures presented in the previous chapter, of the 2,925 towns and villages of the empire in which Armenians lived, no fewer than 2,084 were located on the Armenian high plateau, properly speaking – that is, in the vilayets of Erzerum, Van, Bitlis, Mamuret ul-Aziz, and Dyarbekir.” By the way, did I mention that Kévorkian uses “the Armenian high plateau” and not “Anatolia” in this particular clause? Cheers73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:32, 21 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- Good points. The caption now includes Sivas, and the text more closely matches Kevorkian's village-based analysis. There is still a problem, since Kevorkian doesn't use the "Six Villayets" concept explicitly on the page cited. Also, if we want to introduce the "Six Villayets", just doing so in this caption is odd. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 15:57, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you.73.173.64.115 (talk) 16:58, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- During the Congress of Berlin in 1878, these vilayets were referred to as Six Armenian Vilayets, not Six Vilayets.73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:16, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- Yes, but the cluster is given so many names by the sources, and I'd prefer to use the title of the linked article. You might want to propose a move of the linked article if you think that "Six Armenian Vilayets" would be a better title. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 19:47, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Six Armenian Vilayets (or, more precisely, "the provinces inhabited by the Armenians") was the name originally figuring in the official documents of the 1878 Congress of Berlin. Turks, of course, labored to drop anything "Armenian" in their "best" traditions, and I'm sorry to say, the title of the linked article, Six Vilayets, follows this Turkish preference. Whereas one would think the title must have followed the original name version and not the Turkish distortion.73.173.64.115 (talk) 15:47, 24 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
“CUP regrouped as Turkish nationalists” is hypocrisy, the Turkish nationalists literally fought against the CUP…
Yeah, someone care to explain? Youprayteas 08:31, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- What you wrote is not really true and the sources that say so are decades out of date. This was Zürcher's big contribution and now most historians changed their view (t · c) buidhe 10:27, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- The Istanbul Government is the CUP… which was allied to the Entente… which was fighting Turkish nationalists… Youprayteas 19:09, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- You've got it backwards. The CUP as an organization didn't outlast World War I, but most of the leading figures in the Turkish Nationalist movement were ex-CUP. If you doubt me, there are literally three sources cited in the article, I would recommend checking them out. (t · c) buidhe 20:01, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
How to contact editors with extra privileges?
I understand there are Misplaced Pages editors who have responsibilities or an ability to perform certain administrative actions, called “editors with extra privileges”, if I’m not mistaken? Could anyone visiting this Talk page (other than these two, for the love of God, (t · c) buidhe and Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs)) help with how such editors can be contacted? The highhandedness of the authors and editors of this article, who refuse to implement RS-based edits containing significant viewpoints in violation of Misplaced Pages’s policies and who are involved in falsification of original source texts, needs to stop for the common good of the entire Misplaced Pages community. Thank you in advance.73.173.64.115 (talk) 17:25, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian

- I said "other than this one (t · c) buidhe". Are you deaf and dumb?73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:15, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- You pinged us. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 18:17, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- As an uninvolved administrator... I'm not sure what sort of intervention you're looking for here. To be clear, administrators also do not have the final call on content decisions, as they are instead determined by a consensus of all editors. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:20, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for this. What administrative actions do they perform then? Could you elaborate?73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:21, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- Uh, all sorts of stuff? You can see some information on the role at Misplaced Pages:Administrators. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:24, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for responding to my inquiry. Have a nice day.73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:26, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian
- I don't remember that there has ever been a consensus on this Talk page re: the number of Armenians killed, Armenian total population numbers, and the name of historical Armenian habitat. The author's and editors' highhandedness must therefore be reported and an administrative sanction imposed. Will look into Misplaced Pages:Administrators for that. Thanks again.73.173.64.115 (talk) 18:39, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Davidian

Sayfo
Should the introduction not include the Sayfo? This was the systematic genocide of the Assyrian, Chaldean, and Syriac peoples, committed by the Ottoman Empire and their collaborators, the Kurdish tribes and other local Muslim Arab populations of the area. The intro should read something like this:
Considering the fact that, based on various sources, the number of Assyrians alone (not including Chaldean) who fell victim to Ottoman/Turkish, Kurdish, and Arab persecutions between 1895 and 1925 was 800,000-1,100,000. Of these, between 150,000-400,000 (most reliable number is considered to be around 250,000 Assyrians) perished in the Sayfo, which occurred concurrently with and was closely related to the Armenian genocide (which in reality was more of a Christian genocide than just an Armenian genocide). Assyrian and Chaldean deaths comprised almost half of the genocide deaths in the "Armenian genocide." FJZAJV (talk) 21:11, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

- You are citing David Gaunt, the Swedish 🤡, whose Armenian "mass-graves" turned out to be ancient Roman burials? He was so afraid to confront Yusuf Halaçoğlu about that! 78.173.128.237 (talk) 18:47, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
If "Armenian Genocide" is so well documented...
- Why is there not any court verdict determining it happened?
- Why did Raphael Lemkin not mention it in Axis Rule in Occupied Europe?
- Why did the Armenians revolt?
- Why were Armenian terrorists provided weapons by the Russian Empire?
- Why did the Dashnak members attempt to assassinate Sultan Hamid?
- Why did the Dashnaks assault the Ottoman Bank?
- Why did the Armenians murder 2000 Turks in 1909 Adana revolt?
- Why did the Armenians murder 6000 Turks in 1915 Van revolt?
- Why did the Ottoman government provided supplies to deportees?
- Why did the Ottoman government prosecute 1673 Turkish officials for mistreating Armenians?
- Why did the Ottoman government offered Sweden to investigate the events?
- Why are there no mass-graves containing Armenians?
- Why are there mass-graves containing Turks?
