I would like to seek an attention of a neutral third party to resolve the dispute over references to reliable and scholarly sources, such as Vladimir Minorsky and CJF Dowsett. Atabek23:20, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
For the last time Dowsett calls Khachen a region of Eastern Armenia ...Khachen region of eastern Armenia... C. J. F. Dowsett, International Journal of Middle East Studies, Vol. 11, No. 1. (Feb., 1980), p.138. Note the date, its much later then the 1950 work you're showing. Check Jstor, the materials cand be found there. And we have already shown that Minorsky does not support your unsupportable thesis. For the last time, articles covering history SHOULD NOT SUFFER because a region is currently disputed. We have shown you that practically every sources, from Britannica to the rest support what is in the article, you are misusing Dowsett in a way that readers will misinterpret him. Hewsen, Dowsett etc. consider Khachen as an Armenian principality. VartanM19:42, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
