Talk:Pan-Turkism

message: Information about the Armenian genocide has been deleted from this article. It is relevent because the main figures who have started the genocide are pan-turkists and there are enough RSs about their roles. I'll be adding relevent information in the history section.

replies: text: Those are covered in their article. Are we going to add what everyone did? Beshogur (talk) 16:15, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: We can add a word or two for context for each person, such as who they where and the reason they are notable. This is applied in most all 'notable personalities' sections across Wikipedia because it removes the need for a reader to check each notable figure's article one by one, improving the article.Kevo327 (talk) 18:39, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Why should we, they can visit the articles. Beshogur (talk) 19:22, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: By what I saw and checked, I think user Beshogur is right about and he has a good point. No need to post that about. 93.86.149.86 (talk) 00:30, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

text: I don't get what's the issue other than this being a case of WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT. What I'm saying is done on almost all lists of notable personalities (NPs). Or do you suggest that we should patrol and systematically remove short descriptions from every list of NPs stating that "people can see the articles themselves" ?

replies: text: , probably that's better. I do not know if there is any rule about that. Beshogur (talk) 10:47, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

text: The role of the Turkish/Ottoman state in the genocide cannot be understated; if notable figures are present here, a brief mention would help to establish context. I would like present Armenian viewpoints on pan-turkism, but these are hard to locate in English or even French media (outside of a few French sources from Lebanon). I may dig further as the role of the Armenians in this discussion cannot be overlooked. Oaktree b (talk) 02:57, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Armenian Genocide]] 

message: Turkish and Azerbaijani students are imbued with textbooks making "absurdly inflated" claims that all Eurasian nomads, including the Scythians, and all civilizations on the territory of the Ottoman Empire, such as Sumer, ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, the Byzantine Empire, to even further that Native Americans, pre-Columbus civilizations like Aztec Empire, Incan Empire and Maya civilization, to even Sub-Saharan Africa, were of Turkic origin.
Aside from the Eurasian nomads (and a bunch of cultures like Afanasievo, Andronovo etc.) we don't learn these people as if they were of Turkic origin. The source I gave here was 9th grade Turkish history textbook, which verifies my claim. If the link doesn't seem reliable (it's just a PDF file of the textbook), I understand, but I have to tell that the "information" above is false (except for the Eurasian nomads/Scythians). It is just the exaggerations, mostly promoted with the Turkish History Thesis, and nowadays with little to no believers.

replies: text: A (supposed) 9th grade Turkish history textbook does not refute a reliable academic source. --HistoryofIran (talk) 13:44, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: That "reliable" academic source claims that these are written in Turkish textbooks. And I showed a textbook that disproves this claim.--Isvind (talk) 13:49, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Turkic origin? 

message: Pan-Turkism is the goal to unite all the Turkic nations and it concerns Turkic nations as an ideology. Why do you need a section like "Criticism", where Armenian, Russian, Iranian and even American opinions are also present; while no other pan-...ism pages include such a thing?
--Isvind (talk) 15:07, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not censored, if there is notable criticism from reliable neutral sources generally it is better if it's included. Also, other pan-ism article are unrelated, their lack or inclusion of "criticism" sections isn't subject to uniformity.- Kevo327 (talk) 15:26, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

text: It is also important to note the French influence on this idea as France took over portions of the Levant after the war, further limiting Turkish influence in the region and contributing to the sense of "failure" if you will about the failed Ottoman state after WW1. I've found a decent French source and have added it to the article. The article notes how France dismembered the Arab part of the Ottoman empire, causing further shame to the Turkish state. Important as France turned Lebanon and Syria to their sphere of influence for the next 100 yrs or so. Oaktree b (talk) 02:50, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  About the necessity of the "Criticism" section 

message: Hello , I'm going to ask you to explain your rationale here [1]. This is your second revision and removal of the sourced information, which is clearly stated in the last paragraph of 107 page, and in the start of 108 page of the book [2]. Kindly read WP:OR, and please stop edit-warring, as your account may be blocked if reported. Regards, ZaniGiovanni (talk) 17:33, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: , I read this part. There is no mention of the civilizations/nations/areas I deleted. I didn't delete the ones included in the source. Please check again. --Isvind (talk) 17:39, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

text: The source explicitly says "Turkish pupils are imbued by history textbooks even today", there is no "implied" in that sentence. Again, OR and POV from you. Please stop edit warring, and read the warning message in your talk page. If you continue this disruptive pattern, your account will be reported.ZaniGiovanni (talk) 18:17, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Andreas Boldt is a historian, and your attribution here is misplaced. When reverting yourself, please don't leave out the other parts you added. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 14:40, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: In this case, the truth is Turks learn those peoples at school and being "imbued with the claims that they were of Turkic origin" is Boldt's inference. Should we accept it as absolute truth? --Isvind (talk) 15:22, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not about us accepting it as the "absolute truth". Wikipedia is written based on reliable sources, not what you or me accept or not. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 15:27, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, well. Good luck with these "reliable sources" that can claim anything they want, then.--Isvind (talk) 15:29, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Historical Mechanisms: An Experimental Approach to Applying Scientific Theories to the Study of History 

message: Clive Foss's argument on how Armenian names are changed into Turkish and some other things doesn't concern all Turkic peoples and Pan-Turkism in general. It is only about Turkey's policies and Turkish nationalism, not Turkic nationalism. --Isvind (talk) 18:40, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree. Turkey's internal policies are on its own and unrelated to any sort of "Turan" ambition in general. BerkBerk68talk 15:46, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  About the first paragraph on "Armenian history" section 

message: Turkey never had the idea of "Turkic unification" as a state policy, that can be understood by Erdoğan's expressions about nationalism. How can we say that Turkey failed its ambitions over Turkic countries while it didn't even take it as a core ambition? BerkBerk68talk 16:56, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Erdogans AKP is currently in a political alliance with the Nationalist Movement Party, maybe this gives you a hint. Maybe Turkey did not openly have an aim to create a new pan-turkic empire, but Pan-Turkists did have such an aim. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 19:53, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Its a coalition formed in 2018, before that AKP was completely against nationalism and its policies, we can see that by Erdoğan saying "We are a government that has trampled on every kind of nationalism" , and ofcourse, the AKP's ambition of allying Abdullah Öcalan at Solution process. So we openly can't mention any sort of Pan-Turkism, or even nationalism policies on AKP government before 2018, and even if we say that so called "Turkism policies" of AKP started at the exact moment coalition was formed, 4 years is not enough time for a state to have significant influence(s) over 4 different sovereign nations.  BerkBerk68talk 11:16, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, I know checked the article and nor the AKP or Erdogan are mentioned in the article. What's the issue? Paradise Chronicle (talk) 18:44, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: We are talking about the Turkish state's so called "efforts". Turkic nations are independent since 31 years and AKP is governing the Turkish state since 20 years. Governments before them didn't really care about Turkic influence either. So what is the logic of claiming that Turkey's efforts haven't met expectations while Turkey mostly didn't even have any efforts at all? BerkBerk68talk 17:16, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

text: He is only part of the recent Turkish history. The broader history of the nation attempts to show "shame and a loss of honor" over the defeat in WW1; true or not, it's an interesting discussion to be had by presenting all view points. Oaktree b (talk) 02:53, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

text: I'm one of them. Can you please elaborate on how it takes unnecessary space? Why do we need a new, very small size article with barely any views instead of simply having the info here? I think this info is still highly relevant to this article. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:40, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I am another one, and just asking where we are and mentioning that it takes unecessary space isn't really a good argument for the removal.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 06:31, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
