Talk:Slavery in Asia

slavery in China
Please read the policies carefully. There is no rule to delete valid important referenced infor from wikipedia. If you think the level of detail is too high, the correct approach is to move info elsewhere or split the article according to Summary style. But complete deletion is not an option, unless it is an unimportant trivia. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:48, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

History of slavery in Asia → Slavery in Asia – This article is not limited to history of slavery, nor should it be. While Slavery in Asia redirects here, I think it should be the other way around. This is already an overview article, with by country divisions, etc. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 11:09, 2 July 2019 (UTC) --Relisting.

 * Support - more concise and slightly broadens the scope in a very natural way. Otherwise, where would be the cutoff between "history" and "present". -- Netoholic @ 18:17, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose, because the article is generally focused on history. --Comment by  Selfie City  ( talk about my  contributions ) 18:03, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. Makes sense.--Cúchullain t/ c 15:14, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Support Makes sense. Viztor (talk) 12:53, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

I don't see anything on pages 80 or 81 about slaves from any region, or musicians or prostitutes, either,

Slavery in Afghanistan
The full content of the article on Slavery in Afghanistan should be mentioned in its main article (Slavery in Afghanistan). This is better because it is based on the procedure or style of other such articles on Wikipedia, the original information should be in the original article, not copies of each other. For example, see (Slavery in China) or (Slavery in India) Thanks! Minahatithan (talk) 23:26, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
