message: what the hell "16th century uzbeks replaced Persian-speaking population"?????? I have historical fact that my ancestors live here for more than 1500 years in my motherland, hometown TASHKENT. Ethnic Tashkent live here from the start of the city.
Setting aside emotions and other stuff, IMHO would agree there's smth to be corrected. My points are: a) historic source indicate the influx of Turkic tribes in the first millenium. b) they also show that the indigenous population was Persian. Those migrating groups who adopted a settled lifestyle and merged with local and linguistically and ethnically Persian population became bilingual in fact. c) another factor to be accounted for is that one should differentiate between uses of the term Uzbek. It can be applied to refer to 1) citizens of the modern Uzbekistan, 2) etnic groups, 3) tribes under command of Shaybani khan. I urge everyone, including my fellow Uzbeks to be more rational and academic.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sahib-qiron (talk • contribs) 13:01, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  who vandalize the article and history 

message: As edit history for 2007-04-14 shows, this paragraph is POV.
On April 25 1966, Tashkent was destroyed by a huge earthquake (7.5 on the Richter scale). Over 300,000 were left homeless. Soviet historians made a great story about "battalions of fraternal peoples” and urban planners from each of the Soviet republics, who “volunteered” to rebuild devastated Tashkent. They did a good job, creating a “model Soviet city” of wide shady streets, parks, immense plazas for military parades, fountains, monuments, and acres of apartment blocks. At that time residents of Tashkent began to realize that they were not being consulted in the planning, or necessarily being hired in the rebuilding. The problem exploded when Moscow announced that 20% of the new buildings would be given to the mostly Russian “volunteers”, who would be staying permanently. The subsequent riots were called the Pakhtakor Incident, after the stadium where the trouble began. The Red Army eventually had to be called in to "maintain order". Ufwuct 10:36, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The Pakhtakor Incident was a significant event in the history of modern Tashkent, and regardless of controversity over the causes of the incident, deserves mention in the article. --MChew (talk) 06:42, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: POV paragraph

message: In the article it is stated that the largest city square and tallest Lenin's monument in USSR were in Tashkent. Unfortunately the author did not mention the source. The list of "Largest city squares" in Wikipedia-EN does not include Tashkent at all. I googled a little and found claims that tallest Lenin's monument is in Zaporoje, Ukraine. 
Does anyone have facts/sources?
:When the city square in Tashkent was build it was the largest in USSR. So was the Lenin's statue. The statue was removed in 1991, but I'm not sure what happened to the city squareBmn187 (talk) 00:54, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

The only reason I came to this article is because is is exactly opposite to my city on the globe. (Campbell River, BC, Canada).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.66.90.217 (talk) 15:01, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

message: As crazy as it sounds, based on the Koppen system Tashkent indeed has a Mediterranean climate. The city has no month where average monthly temperatures falls below -3 C, so it’s not a D (Continental) climate. The city's coldest monthly average is about 2 C which is about 5 C higher than a D climate threshold. It's not bordering the Continental Climate threshold. The city features wet winters and dry summers, with the driest summer month seeing about 3% of the precipitation of the wettest winter month. This eliminates it from the humid subtropical climate category. Tashkent’s warmest month average is well above 22 C, so it’s not any form of an oceanic climate. When you run the calculations for aridity (see semi-arid climate page for guidance on this) for Tashkent, you’ll find that the climate is not quite semi-arid. Despite its decidedly unconventional location for a Mediterranean climate, Tashkent has this climate. G. Capo (talk) 03:55, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Tashkent's Climate

message: mediterranean climate is influenced by the sea, a city thousands kilometers far from the sea can't have a mediterranean climate, according what's is written Tashkent has a semiarid/continental climate, on the contrary mediterranean climate is mild, but anyone whatching pictures about the area where Tashkent is located could conclude that's a steppic arid/semiarid area, nothing to spare with the verdant landscapes that characterize mediterranean areas.
Tashkent is not that far from Aydar Lake. The lake would constitute a body of water large enough to have some effect on precipitation patterns. Going by the data, as bizarre as this sounds, Tashkent indeed has a Mediterranean climate according to Koppen's system. G. Capo (talk) 20:22, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

message: The section "Origin of television" is out-of-place in this page: The text does not say in which manner it is related to the city. Scientific and technical discoveries are most often more closely related to preceding discoveries than to the city/environment in which they were made (at least in the 20th century). The development of television is described in Television. I would suggest that this section should be moved there. Professor Tournesol (talk) 21:11, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
