The article does not seem to be based on WP:Reliable sources. I checked the English sources and one Russian source in this article, and none of them supports the claims that Mordvins or other ethnic groups mentioned here would have been Jewish (hence the many {{failed verification}} tags in the article). I did not check all the Russian sources, but I suspect the same is true for them. Jähmefyysikko ( talk) 13:30, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
" Mordva" - a derogatory term towards Jews and children - is widespread up to Smolensk, where the word " mordvin" is also used to mean "troublemaker".I'm hesitant to propose a merge due to the article's quality, but it doesn't seem to be a hoax in its entirety, and a one-sentence mention at Mordva (slur) or Mordvins is possibly warranted.

pejorative term for Jewsis merely
homophonic...but it's clearly unrelated to the main topic (Mordvins don't have anything to do with Jews). Thoughts on this?

Brusquedandelion ( talk) 11:10, 24 March 2024 (UTC)The ethnonym Turks ( Greek: Τούρκοι/Tourkoi, Serbo-Croatian: Turci/Турци, Albanian: turk) has been commonly used by the non-Muslim Balkan peoples to denote all Muslim settlers in the region, regardless of their ethno-linguistic background. The majority of these, however, were indeed ethnic Turks.
