Shirvanis

Hajji Piruz, Shirvanli is still used in Azerbaijan to refer to people originating from Shirvan region. The name of Arran is not used anymore, it is only the reference to the lowland plains of Mil, etc. In general, this topic is not encyclopedic, articles about the people from a certain region are rare. We might as well create articles about Karabakhis, Nakhcivanis, etc. --Grandmaster 06:52, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe we should create such articles, as these were legitimate classifications that were used prior to the term Azerbaijani being invented and used as an ethnic term. If the terms are important enough, they should be created. Shirvanis and Arranis are the most used ones that I know of. Please do not revert information based on your own person interpretations. I have yet to see any evidence presented by you.Hajji Piruz 16:06, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Shirvani was never used as an ethnic term. It was used to designate people from this region regardless of ethnicity. Mind WP:NOR and show me a source saying that Shirvani was a name for an ethnicity. Grandmaster 16:34, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. THis is what I'm saying. Where is your source for this claim: The term Azerbaijani has supplanted Shirvani in modern usage? Where did you read that? Please quote. The term Shirvani is still in use, it denotes people from Shirvan. Grandmaster 16:49, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
