Talk:Extradition of Ramil Safarov

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article is created/written based on different sources and provides references to every content.

  • Not supported to merge with Ramil Safarov. Because the article Ramil Safarov includes information about his life (biography, trial, prison life, popularity resons, etc.), while the article Extradition and pardon of Ramil Safarov includes information that happened and continues to happen after his extradition (August 31, 2012). Therefore the brief information about extradition and pardon in the article Ramil Safarov will be enough, we can give the link to the extradition article in this page and to avoid duplication of information in two articles (possible fork).

Issues

[edit]

Re: Precedents in history and parallels

The entire "precedents" section was pieced together utilizing unrelated events and linked together with misleading wording from the Economist together. In addition, there is an allegation that an non-existent organization called ASALA has sent letters to an Azerbaijani embassy. No independent or foreign media outside of Turkey or Azerbaijan has reported on that as a result it should not be stated as a fact if kept at all.-- Ευπάτωρ Talk!! 10:33, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear span style="color:#00N510;">Ευπάτωρ, Precedents in history and parallels section was created based on different reliable sources, the content is mainly generated from the Wikipedia articles about the biographies of these people and their trial processes, there are some other sentences/references as well. No need to delete the whole section, if you see that any sentence needs citation you can put citation needed sign, other users will put if they find references for those sentences. Regarding news about ASALA, I put sources that confirm this letter was sent, you can put the sources which shows that this letter has not been sent. You can also comment there that "No independent or foreign media outside of Turkey or Azerbaijan has reported on that". But this statement will be wrong, because Hungarian media covered this issue widely and wrote about letter of ASALA to the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Budapest. Let us give different views to readers, it is up to them to decide. Best, Konullu (talk) 16:49, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So it seems that this actually discussed here, and that Konullu knowingly reintroduced fake references into the article, while accusing those who remove unsourced content of vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.221.149.121 (talk) 19:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
From an outsider's point of view, this section as such is not a case of vandalism but I recommend removing it for WP:UNDUE. At least it should provide some balanced selection of cases, not exclusively Armenians. Other issues include sourcing to Wikipedia (WP:RS). Reverting happily back and forth is however not a solution and unless this talk page sees more constructive usage I see the need to put this article under the same sanction as Ramil Safarov.

I came here myself to start a discussion on whether this section be removed (again), but see others seem to already concur with me. It is poorly referenced/sourced and is perhaps even wp: original research or wp: synthesis ("Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources.")
I have removed the last section as it used WP categories as sources, to wit: "Supporters of release from imprisonments also refer to Wikipedia ...", definitely not allowed. This part: " ... researchers found that there were even terrorists who were extradited in their home country and got pardon from life imprisonment" is sourced to YouTube! I also feel that removal of this section was not vandalism. At least the references need to be completed (dates, Publishers etc.)- 220 of Borg 05:47, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I support the suggestion to remove this section from the article. This article is about the "extradition of Ramil Safarov" and not about the "Armenian terrorists". So this section has no relevance to the subject matter of this article and should be removed per WP:OFFTOPIC. --Daniel (talk) 11:48, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If the sources and citations are not well-organized or well-chosen at this stage, then it doesn't mean that we have to delete that section/sentence/article immediately without letting other users to improve/develop article. Moderators/Admins/Users can put citation needed mark according to WP Guidelines. Regarding the critics, I agree that the list should include all nations, not exclusively Armenians. Any user can add any person to the list, I won't delete anyone from that list. Some of Armenian terrorists have been included just to show the views of supporters because of precedents in history. This list has not been created based on only Youtube, there are a lot of sources which prove all of these facts. Youtube video summarizes some of those facts, that is why I also put Youtube as source. I have seen many articles with sources to Youtube in WP.
