I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 01:21, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@Shahanshah5:, why don't you check page 17. Notice the number in the top right hand. Your viewer does not show page numbers on the page. Also, "later becoming powerful" is nonsensical term and tells the reader nothing.
"And that quasi-independent phrase can be deleted since it's unsourced."
Is it? Going from what is written in the article:
"In 1689, he came to Bashli and took back the hereditary governorship..."
Hmmmm....who was in power over this area in 1689 when this was established? S....a...f...
"The Khanate achieved quasi-independence after the assassination of Nader Shah in 1747."
Wait quasi-independence? Quasi means...."resembling; seeming; virtual:"...hmmm.
AND, since you can not/will not read your own source, page 2;
"In 1747 Nadir Shah..[..]..was assassinated in a palace coup..[..]. The circumstances effectively terminated the suzerainty of Persia over Azerbaijan, where local center of power emerged in the form of indigenous principalities, independent or virtually so, inasmuch as some maintained tenuous links to Persia's weak Zand dynasty.[..].. Most of the principalities were orgainzed as khanates, small replicas of the Persian monarchy, including Karabagh, Sheki, Ganja, Baku, Derbent, Kuba, ......"
So, it wasn't established under Safavid suzerainty? It didn't become quasi-independent upon Nader Shah's assassination?
So other editors should just assume that you are cherry-picking information from Swietochowski's book or you haven't read it completely?
I'm curious why you are cherry picking information exclusively from one source. Ignoring facts, even from the source you're using, to promote a particular POV. --Kansas Bear (talk) 07:57, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Like that makes any sense at all, not. You removed exactly what your own source states! Clearly you do not understand English, when you insist on adding a vague word like "powerful" to the lead supported by some arbitrary comment in a book! Your continued belligerence proves you are not here to build an encyclopedia, but to push your silly POV into articles.
"I'm curious that how it could be quasi-independent and powerful khanate at the same time."
Try reading a book instead of editing in a language you do not comprehend.
"Why you don't answer to my question?"
Why don't you stop wasting other editors' time with silly nonsense additions to articles? Why don't you stop removing information, that a source you have in your own possession supports?
For second thought, the khanate could be powerful as a quasi independent khanate among other quasi independent khanates, maybe this what source means. Shahanshah5 (talk) 09:38, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
