Category talk:History of Kyrgyzstan

History before independence
I have created Category:History of the Kyrgyz people as a parent category, to hold earlier history before the independence of Kyrgyzstan.

That includes the Soviet period. However, has reverted the parenting of the KSSR category, stating "Previous categorization was better".

Can we reach a consensus on what periods should be categorised under "Kyrgyzstan"? – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:31, 9 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Considering that there are several ethnic groups living in Kyrgyzstan (and its direct predecessor, the Kyrgyz SSR) beside the Kyrgyz, I think it's best to keep everything not clearly related primarily to the Kyrgyz ethnic group in the country level category.Anonimu (talk) 14:29, 9 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Another problem is that the area has a history predating the arrival of the Kyrgyz, and the Kyrgyz also have a history before that time. For example, Yuezhi, recently moved to Category:History of the Kyrgyz people, concerns events several centuries before the Kyrgyz arrived in the area.  Kanguole 15:11, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

Fair enough. I see that on 13 September reverted most of my edits, i.e. putting most of the articles back into Category:History of Kyrgyzstan. – Fayenatic  L ondon 09:05, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
