Close Paraphrasing

[edit]

The article Armenian cultural heritage in Turkey may be a problem under our copyright policies, since the text seems very closely paraphrased from the sources. While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation – including both structure and language – are. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following:

"This was justified under the law of Emval-i Metruke (literally “abandoned properties”), which legalized the appropriation of Armenian

and Syriac Christian property if the owner did not return within a certain period of time." The article says:

"The legal justification for the seizures was the law of Emval-i Metruke (Law of Abandoned Properties), which legalized the confiscation of Armenian property if the owner did not return."

There may be other passages that similarly follow quite closely.

Unesco

[edit]

The claim of Unesco claiming about the churches in Turkey does not has a valid source, the source is an armenian website which does not point out or proves that Unesco really said something about the churches in Turkey. That's why I think it should be removed. DavidThomson1997 (talk) 15:19, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute is a reliable source. These people are not a bunch of liars. If you have any doubts go to the reliable sources noticeboard to ask (WP:RSN) instead of edit-warring, which could get you blocked. Dr. K. 01:00, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the missunderstanding. I have informed them, Kind regards. DavidThomson1997 (talk) 01:38, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Aghperig Monastery

[edit]

Hi all, I created a page for the ruined Aghperig Monastery near Lake Van in Anatolia. Could somebody add it to the list of religious buildings? --Jwslubbock (talk) 09:49, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For a rather impressive, Armenian site with dramatic photographic evidence often of the current state of key monuments in the Lake Van and Ani areas, many of which quite evidently contradict many extreme Armenian nationalist claims, I'd recommend the French language site: www.vanker.org Although in French, the visual evidence often speaks for itself. There are a lot of signs of decay through neglect, but far less of deliberate policy of systematic destruction across the board, aimed at eliminating all vestiges of Armenian culture. If such were indeed official policy, it has very clearly been incompletely and often incompetently put into practice. Vandalism yes, damage through the elements, earthquakes, etc, yes. but not coherent, systematic destruction for rewriting history, in many cases. One surprising example? Khtzkonk. Why go to all the effort of wilful destruction and leave the most outstanding monument standing and instantly recognisable, if very badly damaged? It still sticks out like a sore thumb, though the lesser monuments have gone, as have the hovels that served as monastic buildings. The Armenian nationalist narrative just doesn't make coherent sense, when compared with the rather too subtantially surviving evidence, as shown by Vanker, whose authenticity in the photographic evidence seems to me to be very difficult to challenge. It just doesn't fit the narrative so often present in Wikipedia material on this hugely contested area of history. And please, if commenting in reply, DON'T assume that I am claiming that there has been NO deliberate destruction of monuments at all. Just evidence that this was considerably less widespread than some would try to have everyone believe, for very clear political reasons divorced from spuriously claimed objectivity and any honest desire for respectable, academically valid truth as a concrete reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.70.132.13 (talk) 15:51, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
