This article has been a cesspit of some of the most ridiculous ethnic tendentious editing for years and years, from all sides of this sorry mess of an ideological conflict. This needs to stop. I will therefore be applying a new set of administrative rules here, with a zero tolerance approach to tendentious editing:
Please pay special attention to this last point, as pretty much everybody has been abusing the talkpages for those kind of arguments in the past.
Any such blocks will be imposed immediately, without further individual warnings, for periods no shorter than two weeks on a first offence, and regardless of whether an editor is experienced or new. You have been warned.
That said, the article clearly needs to change, as it is currently quite obviously written from a tendentious perspective. To get the ball rolling, I will myself make a start by entirely removing the "Assyrian continuity" section, which appears to be one of the most tendentious bits and whose sourcing is abysmal. This is a somewhat uncommon thing for an administrator to do, but given the special history of this article and the long-term well-documented inability of its habitual editors to maintain a constructive and encyclopedic editing debate on this topic, I believe it is justified and will not change my status as an uninvolved and neutral administrator. (Which means I also reserve the right to block editors should they reinsert it, as I would consider such an edit a clear violation of principle 4 above. Material about the idea of an "Assyrian continuity" may ultimately be reincluded, if and when the overall NPOV profile of the article has been fixed and a policy-based WP:CONSENSUS for the appropriateness of such material has been established; not earlier.)

I have been a Christian my whole life and have never heard of "The Way." If this is a real thing, it should be linked. 184.170.171.43 ( talk) 14:29, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

The "Genetics" part is too superficial and doesn't go into detail. I suggest editing it and adding more data with clear sources from genetic tests so there is no misunderstanding. FalitoMardinoyo47 ( talk) 21:17, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
