Talk:Civil conflict in Turkey

This is not a dab page

This is not a dab. This is a page that combines several interrelated conflicts. These conflicts are interrelated and together described as Civil conflict in Turkey.

I disagree, there is no defined "civil" conflict in Turkey. The conflicts in the article are poorly related and thus we cannot make a WP:SYNTH article as if they are.GreyShark (dibra) 17:57, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

• @MLMist and Greyshark09: IMHO, this should really be a WP:CONCEPTDAB. Conflicts are manifold and interrelated, and though common conflict lines exist, there's no single, overarching, civil conflict in Turkey. Civil conflict in the Philippines is a bad example, as it needs to be turned into a WP:CONCEPTDAB or a simple DAB page, too. --PanchoS (talk) 14:30, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Exactly what i have been saying. This page had originally been a simple dab page, and MLMist's push to change it into an article with infobox is merely a very bad faith attempt to edit-war, violating WP:BRD.GreyShark (dibra) 17:11, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Now i can even see that there is no mention of "civil conflict" in none of the three mentioned sources, so perhaps we should even delete this article at all.GreyShark (dibra) 17:16, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation page

This page should either be made a disambiguation page or removed. There is no single, unified civil war or armed clashes in Turkey, there are various civil conflicts such as the Turkey-PKK conflict, Turkey-ISIL conflict and the 1970s political violence. There may be some relation between these conflicts but they do not and never have been part of a single conflict and that would be a matter for individual pages and not a single page. ISIL's violence and PKK's violence are unrelated, they are not part of a single insurgency like Iraqi insurgency (2003–2011). Also, if this page does become a disambiguation page than a few more pages should be listed as well (Revolts during the Turkish War of Independence, Menemen Incident and maybe some stuff about internal conflicts in the Ottomans such as Young Turk Revolution). --FPSTurkey (talk) 12:25, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

We could move this page to a title along the lines of History of civil conflict in Turkey or List of civil conflicts in Turkey, and add the missing instances. bd2412 T 13:00, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
