- Comment: Regarding Special:Diff/1199715324:• The majority of the cited sources don't seem to discuss this draft's topic (Kurds in Caucasia)• Multiple cited sources are not very useful (e.g., the sources referred to in footnotes 1 and 12)• There is a significant logical break: The draft discusses "Kurds in Caucasia", but then describes Kurds in Kazakhstan without citing a single source that discusses why this connection ought to be made, i.e., I suspect WP:SYNTH;• No source seems to discuss the number that expresses the entirety of Kurds in the Caucasus, i.e., WP:SYNTH or WP:OR was used to obtain that figure; • Some parts of the text directly address the reader.One could argue that the cited sources do not indicate notability, but I doubt that peoples or ethnicities cannot be deemed notable, and thus I'd argue that the cited sources are insufficient, hence the verifiability decline. Note that topics related to Kurdish Nationalism might be considered controversial, so a very good sourcing is required, and I'd be more strict in this case. But another AfC reviewer might see it differently. Best regards, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 22:10, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

History of Kurdish States in Caucasia
Shaddadid Dynasties (951-1199)
The History of Kurds in Caucasia goes back to the 10th Century, in 951 the Shaddadid Dynasty was established at Dvin by Muhammad ibn Shaddad (Arabic: محمد بن شداد; Kurdish: محمد بن شەداد), the Shaddadid Dynasty reached its greatest extend in 1030, during wich it included territories from modern-day Armenia and Azerbaijan. In 1067 the Shaddadids became a Vassal state of the Seljuk Empire after the death of Abu'l-Aswar. The Shaddadid State (of Dvin & Ganja) was fully annexed in 1075 by the Seljuk Sultan Alp Arslan, the Dynasty survived in Ani through Manuchihr ibn Shavur. The Shaddadid Dynasty of Ani was independent for another almost 100 years, until the Georgian King George III of Georgia annexed all of Ani for Georgia in 1161. The Shaddadids would rule over Ani again after a coalition of Muslim states defeated Georgia in 1163, though they were a Vassal of Azerbaijan. In 1174 Ani would again be occupied by Georgia, after switching sides between Georgia and the Shaddadids for another 4 times the Shaddadid family lost all power over Ani in 1199.[9][1][10]
Kurdistan Uezd (1923-1929)
Kurdistan Uezd (also known as "Red Kurdistan") was a Soviet administrative unit wich existed as an Autonomous region inside the Azerbaijan SSR for 6 years. Its Capital was Lachin, overall the region was majority Kurdish. In 1929 the Azerbaijani Congress of Soviets dissolved the Autonomous Region.[11][2]
Kurdistan Okrug (1930)
The administrative unit of Kurdistan Okrug only existed for around 2 months after being dissolved, because it strained relations between the Soviet Union and Iran and Turkey.[2]
Kurdish Lachin (1992)
Kurdish Lachin (Officially: English: The Kurdish Republic of Lachin; Kurdish (Kurmanji): Komara kurdî ya Laçînê)) was a unofficial Republic wich existed for one year during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, its Territory was the same as that of Kurdistan Uezd and later Kurdistan Okrug. It was backed by Armenia, and when their support stopped in late 1992 the state was dissolved.[12][13]
History of persecution of Caucasian Kurds
Deportation of 1937
The First Deportation of Kurds from Caucasia to Central Asia occurred in 1937, Joseph Stalin did not trust the Kurdish population and ordered their forced Deportation to Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. This group of Kurds from the first Deportation by Stalin came from Nakhchivan (Part of Azerbaijan SSR). Most of them died during the deportation.[14]
Deportation of 1944
The second Deportation occurred in 1944, this time the Kurds who were deported came from Georgia SSR. Again on the order of Joseph Stalin.[14]
