Many parts of the text from the Han, Tang, Islamization, Qing, PRC, were dense and full of incoherent unorganized random details as well as repetitive, redundant, or irrelevant information. The recent edits have organized these and subdivided the previously dense paragraphs into many subsections for easier reading and future editing. A lot of the repetitive info was removed, and many many stylistic and grammatical improvements were made.
As for examples of other major edits, some tables were created for better organization of some facts like population count. Neutrality was improved by fixing or just outright removing a lot of anti-Chinese separatist rhetoric, though some remain as illustrative examples to highlight the still looming threat of terrorism in the region. As such the sections on terrorism in Xinjiang have also been organized and updated — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexkyoung ( talk • contribs) 11 May 2019 (UTC)
Sirlanz's specific feedback has been addressed and the appropriates edits made. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexkyoung ( talk • contribs) 22 may 2019 (UTC)
I'm working on claning-up and correcting this article; sirlanz is right, Alexkyoung's edits are violating WP:NPOV and misrepresenting sources.

The name East Turkestan was given by Russian specialist Historian of the region Nikita Bichurin who might have authority.
The most probably Han Chinese are not native of this region but PRC Government's policy of forced displacement of Han people to be the dominant race in the region. Therefore there are no concrete historical facts to support calling Xinjiang or other names. — Preceding unsigned comment added by စရကား ( talk • contribs) 13:54, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
Who are the "Mancu," and what does "their style og go ernance" mean? Is there no quality control? 173.88.246.138 ( talk) 23:54, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
the addition/mention of the Yugur People, who are descendants of the Old Uyghur, is probably necessary for the article, if anyone can find any resources that would be appreciated, thanks! 98.59.80.64 ( talk) 08:22, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
