List of Turkish diplomats assassinated by Armenian Terrorist Organisations

The information is already covered in List of attacks by ASALA and Justice Commandos of the Armenian Genocide George Spurlin (talk) 13:49, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Reject. Looking at Mr Spurlin's contributions I have got the impression (as have some other users) that he is more interested in separating or lessening when possible the references to "Armenians and terrorism". In other words, I do not see his work here in WP -in general- on terrorism-related articles as objective. This is not a personal attack but yes a good-faith accusation; as we are here to make an objective encyclopedia, and of course he can respond to my criticism. --E4024 (talk) 15:12, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Your good-faith criticism is noted. I would like to say that my actions have been mostly reactionary. Since the Safarov's pardon earlier this month, some Azerbaijani and Turkish users have begun a campaign to add the "terrorist" word to as many Armenian articles as they can. And I believe some of those additions were done in bad faith and on a battleground mentality. So I see your point that in the last month my edits have been anti-Azerbaijani/Turkish, but it's only because at the moment there aren't any active Armenian POV pushers .

 * Keep. This is a list of terrorist attacks which have significance for millions of people around the world. For turks, azeris, armenians and for the people from different countries which want to know about armenian terrorism and how terrible it was. Wertuose (talk) 20:35, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: Going by the lack of similar lists in the, this lists seems to be the first of the type ...assassinated by terrorist organization. Is this true? If so, we should be aware that we are dealing with a precedent and that similar lists are bound to follow soon, once this gets a green light. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 12:53, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per Nouniquenames. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 20:09, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Why to remove a well-sourced article? I noticed that several articles related to assassination of Turkish diplomats were removed lately without proper discussion. Angel670   talk  17:41, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
