Page overhaul[edit]

I've completely overhauled the page for Iraqis in Syria. The content is 98% new; with the only old material being the infobox (which has been slightly modified and updated) and the notable persons section, which I did not have the heart to remove. I have written over the old page because nearly all of the content was outdated, incorrect, or impossible to verify. As the previous article lacked structure, I chose to start from scratch. The new article is an attempt to provide a balanced and neutral overview of Iraqis in Syria today and touch on various aspects of their lives. All statistics have been updated to reflect the most current and trustworthy numbers available.
