Turkish settlement
AfDs for this article: 
 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The last afd over five months ago finished with no consensus. In that period, no more than ten edits have been made to justify this article. Besides the point of the article being unclear and the title generic (what exactly is a Turkish settlement?), the content that is here can be found in Cyprus dispute, Cypriot refugee, Turkish Invasion of Cyprus and Civilian casualties and displacements during the Cyprus conflict. I'd urge editors to view some of the comments made in the previous nomination to further understand the failures here A.Garnet 13:18, 20 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per nominator or redirect to Cyprus dispute. The information that cannot be found in a better form in other articles is unsourced and unverifiable. That Turkey has occupied parts of the island, and that citizens of Turkey have been welcomed as immigrant citizens of the so-called Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, is beyond dispute, and can be found elsewhere. But have new settlements been formed? The tag on the key phrase in the lead, "new Turkish settlements have been formed in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus", has been there since April 2007. In all this time no evidence has surfaced that the main premise of the article is even true.  --Lambiam 19:00, 21 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment Hmm, at the least, it should be renamed to the particulars of the situation. FrozenPurpleCube 20:18, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete again and again and again and again. Really. Why is this relisted? By the way, it was listed on Deletion sorting/Greece. DenizTC 07:45, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
