Proof Needed

  Look I know that emotions run high on both sides, but let's not forget that we have to back things up... PLS Baristarim 12:15, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

     I said that with regards to a comment about the architect Mimar Sinan, not concerning the genocide, I know that there are enough people discussing that in the concerned page :)) Baristarim 13:50, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

During Ottoman rule

  Have a look at the changes I made and tell me what you think... I have tried to enrich the article.. I made many grammatical corrections, expanded the explanation of certain details and ALSO tried to calm certain things down. I HAVE NOT however tried to change the essence of the article to the best of my abilities, including some, let's say 'thorny' issues.

  On the other hand, I see this article as an opportunity to not always see the glass as half-empty.. Pls reply and let me know of what you think...

  And don't revert directly if you want to change something I wrote!!! I have made grammatical corrections at the same time, so pls look carefully at what you want to change. Peace people!!! Baristarim 12:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mimar Sinan

Hey Baristarim, thanks for the help and nice editing. About Mimar Sinan, it is arguable but the fact that he came from an armenian populated village and was a christian really narrows it down. It is said he used to go by the name Minan Armen Sinanian (Armen being an armenian name). Other people say that there is a possibility he was greek too. That's why we should just leave it a disputed claim.
