Mistakes on population numbers!!

Latest comment: 4 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

As a trustful site we use Wikipedia so give us the right information and numbers. population of Hazara people should be around 20-25% of Afghanistan they Give you the Wrong number. Thank you 🙏🏻 ~2026-30718-38 (talk) 00:21, 24 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

We have a well-sourced discussion about the population numbers in Afghanistan, also mentioning that some claim that it could be as high as 20%. However, as we say, other sources give much lower numbers. Friendly, Lova Falk (talk) 06:40, 30 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Possible plagarism

Latest comment: 4 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The painting identified as "Hazara tribesmen" such as this one; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazaras#/media/File:Hazara_tribesmen.jpg

is actually a Russian painting of an Afghan solider made by Russian painter Vasily Vereshchagin Russian painter. https://www.alamy.com/vereshchagin-vasily-vasilievich-afghan-1-image188592381.html

This should be removed immediately as this is plagiarism of an alrady existing painting and ruins the credibility of Wikipedia ~2026-32153-23 (talk) 07:33, 30 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Request to add Flag of Hazaristan image

Latest comment: 2 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I would like to request an edit to add the Flag of Hazaristan SVG file from Wikimedia Commons to the Hazara article.

Suggested placement: Culture/Identity section.

Suggested caption: “Flag of Hazaristan, a proposed flag associated with Hazara identity.”

Commons file: File: پرچم هزارستان Flag of Hazaristan.svg

Please review whether this addition meets Wikipedia’s sourcing and neutrality guidelines. Amal109 (talk) 22:20, 10 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Fine with me! But please wait a bit so that other editors also can weigh in. Lova Falk (talk) 14:56, 11 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
