Dispute?
There is nothing being disupted, claerly an anti-Assyrian has just placed the template and left it with no time to explain their poor argument. Nothing here is factually inaccurate until proven so.Tourskin 07:30, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

INCLUDE CHALDEANS!!
Why do you guys have a tendency to put Assyrians and Syriacs but not Chaldeans. Chaldeans have the same legitimacy to be included as much as Syriacs are. Its either "Assyrians in Iraq" or "Assyrians/Chaldeans/Syriacs in Iraq" Malik Danno (talk) 02:51, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

The 3000 is a vastly inflated figure. Both British and Iraqi sources, (the official reports and the correspondences of Thomson and Stafford, settlement officers) the only sources available as primary research, put the figure in at 305 men, 6 children and 4 women dead. Something to consider. Even the Assyrian word of mouth reports that reached Baghdad communities only put it at 600. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.232.131.75 (talk) 18:50, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Censorship of Assyrian genocide and blanking of human rights abuses against Christian Assyrian minority by User Atlas
is repeatedly blanking every and all mention of human rights abuses against the Christian Assyrian minority in this article without giving any kind of explanation.

Could he please indicate below which paragraph he doesn't like and for what reason? And what changes he wants to see?

Thanks. --88.128.80.106 (talk) 11:37, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Requested move 7 November 2019

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

Iraqi-Assyrians → Assyrians in Iraq – Harmonization. Articles about an ethnic group in a particular country is usually called "ethnic group in country, like Assyrians in Lebanon, Kurds in Turkey, Kurds in Syria or Ukrainians in Russia. This should also be the case here (and with Syrian-Assyrians as well).

Also, the article was apparently moved to Iraqi-Assyrians unilaterally some time ago. Semsurî (talk) 20:45, 7 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Support The new title is clearer regarding the scope of the article. Dimadick (talk) 21:00, 7 November 2019 (UTC)


 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Contesting the Neutrality of this article
Hello, the tone and content of the article seems a bit one sided at its best and disingenuous at its worst with people citing well known far-right and islamophobic writers such as Bat Ye'or. This article seems to want to paint the 400 years of Ottomon rule over the assyrians in one broad swoop with little nuance. Atrocities comimiteed during the late stage of the Empire's decline when nationlists sentiments were rising through out the empire are mentioned to paint the entirety of the Ottoman rule as repressive towards it Christian minority which is contensted by most historians who argue that the Ottomon rule was pretty tolerant of its minority for most of its history. Also there seems to be little mention of the Abbasids and the Umayyad rule over the Assyrians. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:6E00:FD4:5800:497C:4FD1:E25:AB5B (talk) 06:46, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
