The article says it is "located in Kurdistan"; however it is not a part of Iraqi Kurdistan but lands of Turkish Republic. So that should be corrected.-- hnnvansier ( talk) 19:30, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

I would like to ask to authors: Thy do you mention word Protoarmenians about Urartian people? It is well known that they even did not speak a language relative to Armenian. They spoke on agglutinative language probable of Hurro-Urartian family and later was replaced by early form of Armenian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.118.217.150 ( talk) 18:21, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
It would be very informative to have dates
There is uncertainty to just how Armenian the Proto-Armenian Urartian culture was....but for how many thousands of years was Ararat a largely Armenian region before there was ever even one single Turk anywhere near the place? I think that this sort of information would be extremely useful.

The name of the mount is Ağrı, not Ararat. It is located in Turkey. So you need to use the Turkish word Ağrı as the main name. Then, you can use Armanian name in parenthesis.

There are many views, several showing both peaks, but none gives the compass direction.

Genesis 8:4 refers to what is no doubt the mountain discussed, here, though having various names, depending on what nationality you are. The highest Mt. south of the Caucasus, and west of the Elburz, and so can be considered the highest in Mesopotamia, depending on how one wants to define the latter. The "Great River" of the ancients, the Euphrates, sees some of it's sources coming from the plateau of Ararat. So much as has been said for and against, but it does seems clear that Genesis refers to this mountain, as the plural is used in the Bible, is uses the ancient name "Ararat", and it is the highest in northern Mesopotamia. Quite an edifice of a mountain, the top is now sheathed in many, perhaps 100's, of feet of ice and snow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by John G.

Mount is in Turkey.Why english wiki name ARARAT ? Turkish mount = Turkish name Ağrı Mount !
Earlier version:
"Mount Ararat (Turkish: Agri Dagi; Armenian: ?????? or Masis ?????, see below for its other names and etymology) is a snow-capped and dormant compound volcano in Turkey. It consists of two major volcanic cones: Greater Ararat, the highest peak in Turkey and the entire Armenian plateau with an elevation of 5,137 m (16,854 ft); and Lesser Ararat, with an elevation of 3,896 m (12,782 ft).[5] The Ararat massif is about 40 km (25 mi) in diameter. The Iran-Turkey boundary skirts east of Lesser Ararat, the lower peak of the Ararat massif. It was in this area that, by the Tehran Convention of 1932, a border change was made in Turkey's favour, allowing it to occupy the eastern flank of Lesser Ararat.[6]
Mount Ararat in Judeo-Christian tradition is associated with the "Mountains of Ararat" where, according to the Book of Genesis, Noah's Ark came to rest. It also plays a significant role in Armenian culture and nationalism. The mountain can be seen on the coat of arms of Armenia."
Today:
"Mount Ararat (Armenian: ??????; Turkish: Agri Dagi; see below for more) is a snow-capped and dormant compound volcano in the eastern extremity of Turkey. It consists of two major volcanic cones: Greater Ararat, the highest peak in Turkey and the Armenian plateau with an elevation of 5,137 m (16,854 ft); and Lesser Ararat, with an elevation of 3,896 m (12,782 ft).[5] The Ararat massif is about 40 km (25 mi) in diameter. The Iran-Turkey boundary skirts east of Lesser Ararat, the lower peak of the Ararat massif.
The mountain became part of Turkey according to the 1921 Treaty of Kars.[6] By the Tehran Convention of 1932, a border change was made in Turkey's favor, allowing it to occupy the eastern flank of Lesser Ararat.[7]
Mount Ararat is associated with the "mountains of Ararat" in Jewish and Christian traditions. It is where Noah's Ark came to rest according to an interpretation of the Book of Genesis. It is a national symbol of Armenia and is considered a "holy mountain" by Armenians.[8][9] One author described the Armenians as having "a sense of possession of Ararat in the sense of symbolic cultural property."[10] It plays a significant role in Armenian literature and art. Along with Noah's Ark, is depicted on the coat of arms of Armenia."
We don't need when it became part of Turkey in the lead. We don't need that much about Armenia in the 3rd paragraph although some might be replaced with something about territorial claims. To comply with WP:LEAD we need more about the geology and possibly a sentence about it being climbed.
And as it's in Turkey, it's Turkish name obviously should come first. Doug Weller ( talk) 19:17, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Where did I read somewhere - a Cold War spy into the USSR was detected because he described Mount Ararat from the Armenian SSR rather than the Turkish 'side'? Jackiespeel ( talk) 17:23, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
It appears the border of two provinces (İlleri), Iğdır and Ağrı, go right through the summit/peak of the mountain, is this correct? Furthermore, It looks like the south slope lies within Doğubayazıt district (ilçe) in Ağrı, but what district covers the north slope of the mountain in Iğdır? Would it perhaps be worth a mention in this article of the exact location, or even just simply that it sits on the border of these two provinces within Turkey? Seems to be that this would at least be worth a mention in the first section "Political borders," since that seems a perfect fit for this kind of information. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 12:00, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

User:Yerevantsi is at the moment starting a "revert/undo" war causing relevant information to get washed up in the process. See his/her latest edit deleting a summit photo of Mount Ararat/Ağrı by METU academicians and also deleting the related information in the process. Also the logo of a local university referenced with the mountain is deleted. I would like to point out that the mountian is in Turkey boundaries not in Armenia. However this can not be appraised while reading the page. The answer for this was given earlier as the Armenian culture & symbolism has a lot of material on this issue. Accepting this answer as a fair one, I began to think about strengthening the Turkish people's view about the mountian. Therefore I started to create a sub-section (via putting a template, however it is deleted in the process also, deleting a work-in-progress template by the way is un-Wiki behaviour) trying to inform the readers of Wikipedia that Mount Ararat/Ağrı is also of significance to Turkish people in whose boundaries the mountain rests. I do not want to divulge in politics between the two good nations of Turkey and Armenia, but the "revert/undo" process reminds me this agenda unfortunately. To sum up I would like to contribute to this article and emphasise on the topic that Turkish people also have multiple aspects symbolising the Turkish people's admiration to Mount Ararat/Ağrı. Best regards... Ertly ( talk) 12:11, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Although Mount Ararat is located in Turkey, the Turkish name "Ağrı Dağı" is put at the end. Likewise, although it is in Turkey, it is not a photo from Turkey, but a photo from Armenia, and it gives the impression that Mount Ararat belongs to Armenia.The photograph of a mountain within the borders of Turkey taken from another country and the Armenian name of that country in the first place is extremely wrong and needs to be corrected. I want the photo taken from Yerevan to be changed and the Turkish names to be written as it should be instead of the materials that look like an armenian mountain. The writing of the Armenian name is purely provocation. "Արարատ" it is obvious that the article is not neutral and it is tried to give the appearance of Mount Ararat as if it were an Armenian mountain.there is no defense for it, and defending it is childish. I want the protection order to be lifted and I want to make the necessary arrangements. Mount Ararat does not belong to you, as it is written in your constitution, but belongs to Turkey.

19:58, 19 December 2021 (UTC)ScottishFinnishRadish Do you think the article is unbiased? How accurate is it to take a photo of the territory of a country other than your own and put it in the article? While Mount Ararat is a mountain belonging to Turkey, it is tried to be shown as a mountain belonging to Armenia. None of the information entered in the article is the information entered by consensus. It is a question of presenting a mountain belonging to Turkey as if it is a mountain belonging to Armenia.

<It contains materials showing that a mountain belonging to Turkey is as if it belongs to Armenia. For example, a photo taken from Armenia. writing the Turkish name used in the locale in the last place. Just under Mount Ararat, it's like writing the Armenian name in Armenian fonts.
The Armenian constitution clearly states that Mount Ararat belongs to it. but officially Mount Ararat belongs to Turkey. The current view, on the other hand, makes you feel that Mount Ararat belongs to Armenia in a multilateral way. It is wrong to write aldar in the first place with the photo taken from Yerevan and in Armenian fonts, and I would like to get an opinion from a third opinion to correct it.> Enverpasatr ( talk) 20:34, 19 December 2021 (UTC) |
As an Armenian, I am aware that you are satisfied with the current outlook.however, the article was edited in an extremely biased way for provocation.Mount Ararat is a mountain belonging to the Republic of Turkey. Can you give a logical explanation for putting a photo taken from Armenia in the first image? Could you also explain the reason why his name is written in Armenian characters instead of Turkish local name?Let's not mess with our minds.

Mount Ağrı/Ararat is located entirely in Turkish soil. Why there's an Armenian map shown? Even there are international mountains like Saint Elias, Mount Alverstone, Mount Cook (Saint Elias Mountains), Mount Stanley exists they have only one country's maps. Mountain is totally in Turkey, not a single part in Armenia.
Also, why this question deleted? I am going to push for this until a rational answer. Wikipedia is not a tyranny for mods.
Foora, a lot of disruptive editing goes into the native language versions, as a solution It's been reordered into alphabetical order, it doesn't make any difference which language is before another, and the article clearly states that the mountain is in Turkey.

Conquering the first summit of Ararat on June 24 and immediately after coming to Tenerife to climb Mount Teide crowning on 8 July.

I would like to ask to authors: Thy do you mention word Protoarmenians about Urartian people? It is well known that they even did not speak a language relative to Armenian. They spoke on agglutinative language probable of Hurro-Urartian family and later was replaced by early form of Armenian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.118.217.150 ( talk) 18:21, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
It would be very informative to have dates
There is uncertainty to just how Armenian the Proto-Armenian Urartian culture was....but for how many thousands of years was Ararat a largely Armenian region before there was ever even one single Turk anywhere near the place? I think that this sort of information would be extremely useful.

The name of the mount is Ağrı, not Ararat. It is located in Turkey. So you need to use the Turkish word Ağrı as the main name. Then, you can use Armanian name in parenthesis. Such political games are really nasty and cheap. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yasemin83 ( talk • contribs) 02:31, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
There are many views, several showing both peaks, but none gives the compass direction.
One of the images, preferably an overhead or 3-D view, should be used to explain which is the "eastern flank of Lesser Ararat" that was transferred from Iran to Turkey in 1932. Perhaps this can be done in the image caption, perhaps not. -- P64 ( talk) 20:12, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Genesis 8:4 refers to what is no doubt the mountain discussed, here, though having various names, depending on what nationality you are. The highest Mt. south of the Caucasus, and west of the Elburz, and so can be considered the highest in Mesopotamia, depending on how one wants to define the latter. The "Great River" of the ancients, the Euphrates, sees some of it's sources coming from the plateau of Ararat. So much as has been said for and against, but it does seems clear that Genesis refers to this mountain, as the plural is used in the Bible, is uses the ancient name "Ararat", and it is the highest in northern Mesopotamia. Quite an edifice of a mountain, the top is now sheathed in many, perhaps 100's, of feet of ice and snow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by John G.

Mount is in Turkey.Why english wiki name ARARAT ? Turkish mount = Turkish name Ağrı Mount !
Earlier version:
"Mount Ararat (Turkish: Agri Dagi; Armenian: ?????? or Masis ?????, see below for its other names and etymology) is a snow-capped and dormant compound volcano in Turkey. It consists of two major volcanic cones: Greater Ararat, the highest peak in Turkey and the entire Armenian plateau with an elevation of 5,137 m (16,854 ft); and Lesser Ararat, with an elevation of 3,896 m (12,782 ft).[5] The Ararat massif is about 40 km (25 mi) in diameter. The Iran-Turkey boundary skirts east of Lesser Ararat, the lower peak of the Ararat massif. It was in this area that, by the Tehran Convention of 1932, a border change was made in Turkey's favour, allowing it to occupy the eastern flank of Lesser Ararat.[6]
Mount Ararat in Judeo-Christian tradition is associated with the "Mountains of Ararat" where, according to the Book of Genesis, Noah's Ark came to rest. It also plays a significant role in Armenian culture and nationalism. The mountain can be seen on the coat of arms of Armenia."
Today:
"Mount Ararat (Armenian: ??????; Turkish: Agri Dagi; see below for more) is a snow-capped and dormant compound volcano in the eastern extremity of Turkey. It consists of two major volcanic cones: Greater Ararat, the highest peak in Turkey and the Armenian plateau with an elevation of 5,137 m (16,854 ft); and Lesser Ararat, with an elevation of 3,896 m (12,782 ft).[5] The Ararat massif is about 40 km (25 mi) in diameter. The Iran-Turkey boundary skirts east of Lesser Ararat, the lower peak of the Ararat massif.
The mountain became part of Turkey according to the 1921 Treaty of Kars.[6] By the Tehran Convention of 1932, a border change was made in Turkey's favor, allowing it to occupy the eastern flank of Lesser Ararat.[7]
Mount Ararat is associated with the "mountains of Ararat" in Jewish and Christian traditions. It is where Noah's Ark came to rest according to an interpretation of the Book of Genesis. It is a national symbol of Armenia and is considered a "holy mountain" by Armenians.[8][9] One author described the Armenians as having "a sense of possession of Ararat in the sense of symbolic cultural property."[10] It plays a significant role in Armenian literature and art. Along with Noah's Ark, is depicted on the coat of arms of Armenia."
We don't need when it became part of Turkey in the lead. We don't need that much about Armenia in the 3rd paragraph although some might be replaced with something about territorial claims. To comply with WP:LEAD we need more about the geology and possibly a sentence about it being climbed.
And as it's in Turkey, it's Turkish name obviously should come first. Doug Weller ( talk) 19:17, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Where did I read somewhere - a Cold War spy into the USSR was detected because he described Mount Ararat from the Armenian SSR rather than the Turkish 'side'? Jackiespeel ( talk) 17:23, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
It appears the border of two provinces (İlleri), Iğdır and Ağrı, go right through the summit/peak of the mountain, is this correct? Furthermore, It looks like the south slope lies within Doğubayazıt district (ilçe) in Ağrı, but what district covers the north slope of the mountain in Iğdır? Would it perhaps be worth a mention in this article of the exact location, or even just simply that it sits on the border of these two provinces within Turkey? Seems to be that this would at least be worth a mention in the first section "Political borders," since that seems a perfect fit for this kind of information. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 12:00, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

User:Yerevantsi is at the moment starting a "revert/undo" war causing relevant information to get washed up in the process. See his/her latest edit deleting a summit photo of Mount Ararat/Ağrı by METU academicians and also deleting the related information in the process. Also the logo of a local university referenced with the mountain is deleted. I would like to point out that the mountian is in Turkey boundaries not in Armenia. However this can not be appraised while reading the page. The answer for this was given earlier as the Armenian culture & symbolism has a lot of material on this issue. Accepting this answer as a fair one, I began to think about strengthening the Turkish people's view about the mountian. Therefore I started to create a sub-section (via putting a template, however it is deleted in the process also, deleting a work-in-progress template by the way is un-Wiki behaviour) trying to inform the readers of Wikipedia that Mount Ararat/Ağrı is also of significance to Turkish people in whose boundaries the mountain rests. I do not want to divulge in politics between the two good nations of Turkey and Armenia, but the "revert/undo" process reminds me this agenda unfortunately. To sum up I would like to contribute to this article and emphasise on the topic that Turkish people also have multiple aspects symbolising the Turkish people's admiration to Mount Ararat/Ağrı.

Why is the Armenian name of the town included? These have been Turkish and Kurdish lands for a thousand years.

As you can see in the article, when the Armenian name was written, the Turkish name was not included in the mountain title. The article is very biased and gives a view of an armenian mountain. I want the protection order to be lifted in order to make an edit.:
Mount Ararat belongs to Turkey.

Although Mount Ararat is located in Turkey, the Turkish name "Ağrı Dağı" is put at the end. Likewise, although it is in Turkey, it is not a photo from Turkey, but a photo from Armenia, and it gives the impression that Mount Ararat belongs to Armenia.The photograph of a mountain within the borders of Turkey taken from another country and the Armenian name of that country in the first place is extremely wrong and needs to be corrected. I want the photo taken from Yerevan to be changed and the Turkish names to be written as it should be instead of the materials that look like an armenian mountain. The writing of the Armenian name is purely provocation. "Արարատ" it is obvious that the article is not neutral and it is tried to give the appearance of Mount Ararat as if it were an Armenian mountain.there is no defense for it, and defending it is childish. I want the protection order to be lifted and I want to make the necessary arrangements. Mount Ararat does not belong to you, as it is written in your constitution, but belongs to Turkey.

19:58, 19 December 2021 (UTC)ScottishFinnishRadish Do you think the article is unbiased? How accurate is it to take a photo of the territory of a country other than your own and put it in the article? While Mount Ararat is a mountain belonging to Turkey, it is tried to be shown as a mountain belonging to Armenia. None of the information entered in the article is the information entered by consensus. It is a question of presenting a mountain belonging to Turkey as if it is a mountain belonging to Armenia. There are many wikipedia policy violations.If necessary, I would like you to offer your contribution as a third opinion. Enverpasatr ( talk) 20:06, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

<It contains materials showing that a mountain belonging to Turkey is as if it belongs to Armenia. For example, a photo taken from Armenia. writing the Turkish name used in the locale in the last place. Just under Mount Ararat, it's like writing the Armenian name in Armenian fonts.
The Armenian constitution clearly states that Mount Ararat belongs to it. but officially Mount Ararat belongs to Turkey. The current view, on the other hand, makes you feel that Mount Ararat belongs to Armenia in a multilateral way. It is wrong to write aldar in the first place with the photo taken from Yerevan and in Armenian fonts, and I would like to get an opinion from a third opinion to correct it.> Enverpasatr ( talk) 20:34, 19 December 2021 (UTC) |
As an Armenian, I am aware that you are satisfied with the current outlook.however, the article was edited in an extremely biased way for provocation.Mount Ararat is a mountain belonging to the Republic of Turkey. Can you give a logical explanation for putting a photo taken from Armenia in the first image? Could you also explain the reason why his name is written in Armenian characters instead of Turkish local name?Let's not mess with our minds. What is tried to be done is to show the mountain as an Armenian mountain.so you, as an Armenian, can be content with your current situation, but in reality, this is not the case.

Mount Ağrı/Ararat is located entirely in Turkish soil. Why there's an Armenian map shown? Even there are international mountains like Saint Elias, Mount Alverstone, Mount Cook (Saint Elias Mountains), Mount Stanley exists they have only one country's maps. Mountain is totally in Turkey, not a single part in Armenia.
Also, why this question deleted? I am going to push for this until a rational answer. Wikipedia is not a tyranny for mods.
Foora, a lot of disruptive editing goes into the native language versions, as a solution It's been reordered into alphabetical order, it doesn't make any difference which language is before another, and the article clearly states that the mountain is in Turkey. As for the lack of content about it's significance to the Turkish and Kurdish peoples, feel free to add the content you notice is missing with the appropriate reliable sources. - Kevo327 ( talk) 17:36, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
