KURDISH ISSUES

KURDISH READERS OF WIKIPEDIA HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF TURKISH NAZI NATIONALISTS TAMPERING WITH VERY KURDISH DOCUMENT ON WIKIPEDIA. THE FACTS ARE CLEAR AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF REFERENCES IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND EUROPEAN RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS THAT CAN PROVE THEM TO BE TRUE.

IF WIKIPEDIA DOES NOT ADRESS THE BIAS AND ACEDEMIC OPRESSION OF TURKS AGAINST KURDS ON ITS PAGES THEN WE WILL BE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING TAKING YOU TO THE EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS.

THANK YOU

[edit] Removed

I have removed this paragraph:

Music is modal, with its meqam (or mode in Arabic music) is called Kurd and is known throughout the Middle East. Other common meqams used in Kurdish music are Deştî - which is of Kurdish origin - Beyat, Beyatî Huseynî (Muheyir), Hicaz and Saba. The meqam Nahawand or Nihavent used in Arabic and Turkish music also has a Kurdish name.

It is not correct musicology. Kurdish people have to be objective here and not just try and write an article that seems to emphasise nationlist tendencies. Please see sources [1] for correct information on Ottoman classical music

I didn't know a theory could be a proof or a source... Your source is not enough for removal of the paragraph. I suggest the paragraph be placed back in the article, since the source you provided is not enough for removal.--Flavallee (talk) 04:08, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree with the removal of the paragraph. There is an improper use of musical terms. Furthermore, the source originally provided is not a 'theory' in the normal sense of the word. It rather refers to music theory (i.e. the study of melodies, harmonies, construction and breakdown of music etc). 41.232.174.2 (talk) 08:39, 5 March 2008 (UTC)Abdulwahid

[edit] "Kurdistan"

I edit the words Kurdistan, because kurdistan does not exist. Look at the world atlas and u will not see a Kurdistan. Kurdish people live in diffrent country's like Turkey, Irak, Iran, Syrie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.7.182.14 (talk) 16:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

This argument is as cogent as saying there is no Sahara Desert because there is no country called "Sahara Desert". Kurdistan is a region... a geographical entity. Kurdistan exists--not as a separate state, but as a geographical region. Svyatoslav 19:09, 7 October 2007 (UTC)


You can edit your mother you stupid racist. Go away. Kurdistan exists and that's what we are going to write. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.253.53.0 (talk) 09:10, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hajj Amin Elahi

I love music of Hajj Amin Elahi, a kurdish master. Somebody should write about him here.--Hasan075 (talk) 19:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
