message: Thrust of article seems to be blasting the Turks as much as it is about the ostensible subject. Rodney Boyd 02:42, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Ozgur, I questioned the neutrality of the page for the following reasons: it does not discuss other points of view, when the topic is a controversial one; it uses immoderate language; the article is supposed to be about a poet but the majority of the article is used to make political points (if he's significant, let's hear more about him!); there are other places in Wikipedia where Turkish-Kurdish relations can be addressed (if they seem insufficient to you, you can of course create a new article—but it should follow NPOV guidelines). Regards, Rodney Boyd 18:39, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Deliogul, Yes I am Kurdish. What do you mean by us? And do you wanna know what I think about the Turkish parliment? Well, why don't you give me your email so I can email you it because it's inappropriate context here. Ozgur Gerilla 23:26, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I am talking about the world order. It must be easy. French, German, Indian, Turkish, Kurdish... They are all different and also they don't have to love or respect eachother. In my opinion a German can't say anything about Turkey, Turkish Army or about the Turkish Parliment. As far as there is no difference between being a Canadian, German or Kurdish, you can't talk about my country because Turkey is our country not yours. Deliogul 17:03, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Gentlemen, can we stick to the subject of Ahmet Kaya in this space? If you want to talk politics, I think Ozgur's suggestion of taking it offline is a good one. Regards, Rodney Boyd 18:41, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I gave my answer and I won't be discussing this thing again. Just like you, Rodney, I don't want to talk about such things. I had to give answer to him because he said bad things about my country, thats all. Deliogul 19:25, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  No comment, except to say that now all three of us apparently agree that this is not the place to discuss politics. Regards, Rodney Boyd 20:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: POV

message: *A better picture of him
*More Descriptive writing about his poetry and music
Maybe a mention of the number of people killed by him would be a great improvement?

thread_title: Possible Improvements

message: Could someone please insert his picture. Ozgur Gerilla 23:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The previous one came from the Kurdish Wikipedia but did not have any licencing information, so it was removed. We need one that is in public domain or qualifies for fair use. Perhaps there is a suitable one on the official site–someone who reads Turkish would be in a better position to evaluate this. Rodney Boyd 01:30, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  OK, ill sort it out now. Ozgur Gerilla 23:30, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

text: This is the image of him can someone insert it to the article? Ozgur Gerilla 20:38, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

text: OK, I've just inserted it. Ozgur Gerilla 20:38, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture 

message: He's a Kurd from Malatya. The reason for his exile is because he wanted to produce songs and videos in Kurdish. Isn't this why those Turkish singers attacked him on the ceremony night. Oh please, and you edit him as a Turk. It's beyond belief. Ozgur Gerilla 16:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  His Ethnicity 

message: He's name is Ahmet Kaya. He does not have any other names; including Ehmed Kaya. Kaygtr 16:29, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: We, the Kurds, refer to him as Edmed Kaya. I think that is a good enough reason to put the Kurdish name to the article. Ozgur Gerilla 15:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Please Wiki notes that Ahmad Kaya sacrificed his life for his Kurdishness. This is insulting to say, he was mixed. He was Kurd but he had a Turkish passport. And one paper called (passport) doesn't change anyone's origin or ancestry!
If I have a British passport yet it does not make me English because I am not.
He sang in Turkish due to Turkification of Turkey in the past against Kurdish people, language, culture, traditions. Most of the Kurdish singers sang in Turkish but with Kurdish melodies in that case.
Please watch this video to see how he proudly say " I am Kurdish & Record a song in Kurdish"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbh-XzPA0_A&t=54s
Watch how Turkish treated him!
