Merge

I have moved the old page Egin to Egin, Turkey, however I believe that page should be merged into this one. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 11:57, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This text was mostly taken from the EB1911, and I have put the original on wikisource:1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Egin. --John Vandenberg ^(chat) 12:07, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you have more info about this, and sources, please post it. As far as I understand it, most Egin Greeks were Armenian-speaking, and they often worshiped in the same churches as the Armenians, but had their own altar. They also had at least one village church, which is still standing (in a secret place that only I know, and I'm not telling). Meowy 16:38, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Most Egin Greeks were Armenian-speaking because most accepted the Greek religion and culture due to Byzantine pressure through time. So there were many orthodox armenians. And there currently is no such secret village church which is still standing as a whole, other than the one in the city-center of the town. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.54.225.167 (talk) 18:48, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I also suggest you to add Agn, Ağn and Agin to other names of Egin, all of which are mentioned in historic books. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.54.225.167 (talk) 18:51, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As the merger proposal of Egin, Turkey into this article has been around for a couple of years without objection, I'll be bold and carry out the merger. Rupert Clayton (talk) 05:32, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Text vandalized in 2014

Hi ZaniGiovanni I read this article years ago and when I read it again recently, I noticed somethin was missing. An IP vandalized the article in 2014. Erasing sourced content mentionning that the armenian population was massacred following the 1896 Ottoman Bank Takeover. It went unnoticed because the article isn't well maintained--Kimdime (talk) 12:52, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kimdime sorry, I didn't notice the sourced content removal cited by historian Vahakn Dadrian. I'll restore with sources. Cheers. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 13:03, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's done now. @Kimdime Thanks for showing me the diff, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed the content removal in history section. Regards, ZaniGiovanni (talk) 13:32, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I changed the quote template since it wasn't fitting enough to be shown after its author, and was basically just a random text in the article. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 13:36, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
