[edit] Move

I propose this page be moved to "Armenians in the United States" to go in line with other Diaspora pages like Armenians in Canada, Armenians in Lebanon etc. I will go ahead with the move if there is no opposition. - Fedayee 05:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

A separate article should go for that since, this is more of ancestry or ethnic related for example, Chinese American unless we can rename this. Nareklm 05:30, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Hmmm, I see what you mean but wouldn't it come to the same thing? They are both Armenians living in the United States and like other articles don't have "Canadian-Armenian" etc, it just redirects to Armenians in Canada... - Fedayee 05:33, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "historically proven existence" of "armenian genocide"?

I suggest to change the word "proven" to "debated" or "disputed", because nothing has been proven about the Armenian Genocide. In fact both Armenian diaspora and Armenian government are avoiding a scientific research by a Turkish-Armenian joint committee to prove or disaprove the so-called genocide.

I'll——respectfully———disagree with the suggestions and aspersions cast upon the Armenians' claims regarding the genocide. However, the phrase is unnecessary and cumbersome here. We do not speak of (or need to speak of) the "historically proven existence of the Boston Tea Party" or "the historically proven existence of Atatürk," for example. Use of the phrase is both a red flag, and, I suggest, a suggestion of weakness on the part of those using the phrase, where no such weakness exists, nor should any such weakness be hinted at.

[edit] "related groups" info removed from infobox

For dedicated editors of this page: The "Related Groups" info was removed from all {{Infobox Ethnic group}} infoboxes. Comments may be left on the Ethnic groups talk page. Ling.Nut 23:07, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sourced

I agree with the removal of the first part, that has nothing to do with Amenian-Americans, but the second part was sourced and related to to subject. VartanM (talk) 21:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
