Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Genocide of Ottoman Turks and Muslims
This article is a classic example of  in that it combines "material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." While it's probably not impossible to locate a source that supports a claim of a genocide of Ottoman Turks and Muslims (same as its not impossible to find sources claiming that HIV is a harmless passenger virus and that it doesn't cause AIDS), the widespread historical consensus is not that such an event exists and it does not have a commonly accepted definition (not unlike the overwhelming scientific consensus that HIV does cause AIDS). The burden of proof in this case is put squarely on the editors introducing such material and it's not enough to cite only that all of these events happened but also that they were a part of the wider event as defined by the article. It qualifies as a  theory because it contains "ideas that depart significantly from the prevailing or Mainstream (terminology)|mainstream view in its particular field of study." Per , "Exceptional claims in Wikipedia require high-quality sources. If such sources are not available, the material should not be included." This article does make exceptional claims and does not have exceptional sources to back up the same claims
