Talk:Zakho

Category: Assyria

I would like to know why the category Assyria is allowed while category Kurdistan is being removed? Is there exact boundaries for Assyria? As far as I remember that's the main reason given for removing the Kurdistan category. Heja Helweda 22:52, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

"Kurdish city"?

Last time I checked, Iraq was still a sovereign state recognised by all UN members. Shouldn't the correct description say "Iraqi city"?

Not reliable sources

I delete 3 sources ; please see Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources :

• Ariel Sabar, My Father's Paradise: A Son's Search for His Jewish Past in Kurdish Iraq, 2008 : Ariel Sabar is not a historian, he just wrote something like an autobiography or a novel, and can not say anything about events that happened in 1891.

• "The Man From Zakho", The Jewish Week, date=2008-08-13 |last=Brawarsky |first=Sandee |url=http://www.thejewishweek.com/viewArticle/c44_a13197/The_Arts/Books.html : it is a review of A. Sabar's autobiography/novel ; it is not a historical work ! Not a reliable source about the XIXth century.

• Notes on Revelation, Eclipse Path, Turkey, Iraq, publisher=Judaeo-Christian Research,url= http://juchre.org/nor/turkey.htm|accessdate=2009-09-06 : a low-quality website : no author, no reference, no bibliography. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:CB00:980:7A00:60C9:286E:7DD4:4F3A (talk) 22:36, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Armenian no

Why you add armenian language in a city in Iraq?? Majority of people in Iraq are Assyrians, Kurds And Arabs. Just because some armenians went here doesnt it mean just add there language in. This is why everybody looks at Iraq like a joke, we are too kind and welcome everything. Why dont we see our languages used on other wikipedia pages about cities or towns?
