https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkoman_(ethnonym) It is better to switch the link of Turkomans from present day ethnic Turkmens to the Turkoman( Ethnonym ) link. This would make the readers understand more about what a Turkoman was in Western Asia. 2A02:1810:A44A:7E00:E9BF:8593:2AAF:24E0 (talk) 04:29, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me for now that the existing link is more useful. The link you provide primarily deals with the etymology of the term - is there some reason why this is a more suitable target? Tollens (talk) 07:16, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Tollens: 'Turkoman' was a term used to refer to people of Oghuz Turkic origin, not just Turkmens. These are two different things. — Golden ^{call me maybe?} 07:22, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah - thank you! Tollens (talk) 07:25, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Safavid DNA show Sayyid

The Talysh DNA Project claims to have DNA-proven that Safavids are real sayyids (Y12361). http://web.archive.org/web/20240519213041/https://t.me/talyshdna/42 --95.24.82.144 (talk) 21:33, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DNA tests on Safavids show closeness of Kizilbashes to Azerbaijani Turks, not talyshes or kurds 79.139.207.157 (talk) 13:30, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
