I have neither particular historical knowledge of, nor interest in, the Armenian-Turk, Greco-Turk, Bulgarian-Turk etc. conflicts, and the associated historical grievances. This article, though, is a mess of propagandistic and of course blatantly POV invective regarding alleged massacres in the course of these conflicts. The sources cited are either not online or clearly partisan, and are at any rate not specific to the individual allegations. I realise AfD is not a content dispute forum, but I think that this sort of text cannot be usefully NPOVed (or merged), and that the article itself is a POV fork of the existing articles on the history of these conflicts. An article on "Turkish Massacres" (or rather, "Massacres of Turks", which is what is meant) during many very different conflicts has no systematic value to the encyclopedian, only to the propagandist. (Contested PROD, of course.) Sandstein 13:16, 28 May 2006 (UTC) reply
