A fact from this article was featured on Misplaced Pages's Main Page in the On this day section on March 30, 2012, March 30, 2013, March 30, 2015, March 30, 2017, March 30, 2018, and March 30, 2019.

Biased and incomplete

It's probably obvious to many readers that this article is more sympathetic to the Muslim side. Although informative and with lots of references, I assume a more balanced description is possible. In particular, there's precious little mention of world war 1, not to mention the armenian genocide just in neighboring Turkey where something like 1.2 M were killed. Search for the word 'genocide' and only one of many refers to the Armenian one. You can't tell me that the Azeri genocide wasn't influenced heavily by the Armenian genocide.

The lead should be changed

The lead should be change to better reflect the article and to remove bias, in it's current state the article lead doesn't mention the savage division entering Baku and shooting military personnel stationed there indiscriminately which led to the civil unrest. Kevo327 (talk) 09:39, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

What you said is already mentioned in the lead as "Other sources interpret the March events in the context of civil war unrest". This sentence is further expanded in other parts of the article. Leads should be short and to the point per WP:MOSLEAD. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 10:05, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Edit warring

I have seen that recently, there has been an edit war over Jews being murdered in this article. While I am a newcomer and do not know anything about this topic, I am simply asking for you to discuss this on the talk page, instead of reverting each other's edits. Just be civil.

Eridian314 (talk) 15:12, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

You're correct. This should be resolved in the talk page. @185.120.126.65:, @Kevo327: please discuss and reach WP:CONSENSUS before making any more edits. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 15:18, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

It is simply unacceptable that the Dashnak massacre of 3000 Jews is being reverted, when it is cited as a matter of fact in peer reviewed journals. I cannot help but not that the user who keeps removing that information appears to be an Armenian Nationalist. Furthermore, I would like to note that he referred to Smith's statement as "unsourced jewish propaganda" when it is nothing of the kind. 185.120.124.94 (talk) 16:25, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Have you ever read WP:ASSUMEGOODFAITH? The content you are adding keeps getting deleted by me and other users keeps getting deleted because the sources you provide are not up to wikipedia standard. The first one being a WP:BLOG and the smith source was removed by another user for being "unverifiable" as he worded it, which i imagine is because the source can't be opened to check if it actually includes any of the content that is cited from it. Adding multiple WP:VERIFIABLE accredited sources is norm on Misplaced Pages and not pointing fingers and calling names. Kevo327 (talk) 19:46, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
