Talk:Minorities in Greece

message: I would like to protest to many persons here who use Wikipedia to show personal views or Greek government policies about the minorities in Greece, which in fact have been strongly criticized by the European Court of Human Rights, the United Nations Human Rights Council and the International Helsinki Federation for Human Rights as can be seen in the references in the article. In order to encourage freedom of information access Wikipedia should allow free exposure to all kind of referenced material, and in particular materials denied with official government policies. After all, the reports presented by official institutions (previously mentioned) protecting minorities and human rights in general are much more valuable than any other personal publications, books and even mainstream, biased, popular sources such as Britannica. It is outrageous to delete (or undo) an edit citing text from a report of the United Nations Human Rights Council published just recently in 2008.
Causantin made a good point by saying:
"Why is it that, of all the countries in Europe, only 2 have "minorities" pages (Greece and Poland)? What is even crazier, is that these 2 are the only ones with no sizable minorities to speak of!! Both Poland and Greece have less than 2% minority populations, while in most European countries the percentage is above 5%, and often much more."
Indeed, it's a sign that there is something very wrong with minority official policies and public opinion in Greece. If everything was fine there would have probably only been a short list of minorities in Greece with exact count as obtained in an official census. Until then, we should all to try to help truth surface.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by ДАБ (talk • contribs) 19:58, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

message: What is this "other minorities" section? Jews are obviously a religious minority just as Muslims are, and Armenians ought to be considered "linguistic and cultural" minorities like the Roma. Am I wrong?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.176.43.83 (talk) 09:17, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

message: This dispute resolution request was not resolved but closed - this is probably due to my inability to edit in Wikipedia for some time. Meanwhile, I see that the most important part of the dispute, that is, classifying Turks under "religious minorities / muslims" is still remaining in the article. I proposed to place Turks under ethnic minorities. There is no need to make distinction between "linguistic communities" and ethnic minorities, either. Under "religious minorities" there can still be a separate "Muslims" section. Another issue was alluding to the long standing problem of the lack of a mosque in Athens. A sentence like "great majority of Turkic Muslims in Thrace espouse moderate political views and are ready to work and prosper as citizens of the Greek state", even if referenced, constitue a violation of neutral point of view policy of this encyclopedia, probably reflecting that of the source itself. Do you think we may agree on these points here or do we need to speak it on the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard? Filanca (talk) 20:24, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
