There are two topic in this article.
1: Ethnic Turkish in Chile
2: Islam in Chile: A section titled Islam in Chile of this article was copied from Islam in Chile, and Islam Online. "The Muslim Community in Chile Origins and Dreams". In this web page, the theme of this web cşte isnt't ethnic Turkish people but Islam community.
Most part of references No 2: Miroğlu, Ahmet. "Türkiye Dünyanın Son Bulduğu Yer Şili" (in Turkish) is Turkish translation of reference No 3: Islam Online. "The Muslim Community in Chile Origins and Dreams" (in English) and in Turkish translation (source No 2), the author Ahmet uses the term Ottoman citizen (Osmanlı tebaası). We can understand of source No. 2, especially from the usage of quotation marks (not Turks but "Turks"), they don't accept Turkish ethnicity. Most of them are Arab immigrants from Ottoman Syria. So we must remove the section of Islam in Chile from this article.
After cleanup of the part about Ottoman citizens, we can see only numerical data about ehtnic Turkish in Chile.
Thank you. Takabeg (talk) 08:48, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete There's no proof of notability. If there were a showing of a Turkish community in Chile, that would be a one thing, but all we have is meaningless statistics. "In the census of 1907, the Muslims had risen to 1,498 people" is as up-to-date as this one has ever been, and even that 103-year old nugget operates on the assumption that all Muslims there were Turkish. The rest of it is a paragraph about Islam in Chile; this one has nothing to say, and says it. Mandsford 13:26, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
