Peoples of the Caucasus in Iran

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

"Peoples of the Caucasus" is already a region-based categorization of ethnic groups, so this is basically a list of ethnic groups that inhabit Iran but also happen to inhabit parts of the Caucasus, another region, which is very arbitrary. It's like having an article for "Peoples of Long Island in France" and include Italians, Arabs, and Jews there, because they inhabit both places. There could be a separate article for Caucasian immigrants in Iran with enough historical context, but it has to be named differently. There aren't also any sources that specifically categorize these groups together, if I'm not mistaken. I am also nominating the following page because it has the same problem:
