The article is black washed

Kurdish articles are black washed and some users have added a new "Issues section" to all Kurdish articles and explained some specific honour killings with details. I checked British Turks, British Pakistanis, British Indian and other different people in western countries, they haven't added such sections even though some of them have similar issues and even much worse. Also, there is no such issue honour killing among the Kurds, if some individuals commit crimes, it doesn't mean it's issue among that ethnicity. You need strong and reliable source for such claim.

Here is a potentially useful source for this article. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:59, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Did you really check these articles? They mention political issues and gender violence like forced marrriage, cousin marriage and female foeticide. The topic of HBV (Honor based violence) is notable, at least as relevant as Nigerians_in_the_Netherlands#Crime or Turks_in_Germany#Integration_problems or Moroccan-Dutch#LGBT-related_attitudes.
Some of these cases are very notable, especially the Honor killing of Pela and Fatime, which led to the creation of National Organization GAPF (the acronym stands for Never Forget Pela and Fadime). The organization's name is taken from Pela Atroshi and Fadime Sahindal which is Sweden's best-known and high-profile cases of honor killings . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.127.213.144 (talk) 23:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good edits, but still not an issue to mention here. You are showing them as an issue. Adding those persons to the see also section was great idea. You should add those to the Kurdish women article.Ferakp (talk) 08:52, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is unclear to me why material about Kurdish women murdered in Sweden belongs at Kurdish women but not at Kurds in Sweden. What's the rationale here? Cordless Larry (talk) 09:59, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Cordless Larry: My point is that this same user is copy pasting the same "issue" to all "Kurdish in X" articles. He is trying to black wash all articles with specific details of crimes. As I said before, those honour killings would be better if they belong to the Kurdish women or Honour killing articles, not here. Just imagine, how Turks in Germany, British Pakistani and other ethnicities in Europe would look like if I gather their "notable" crimes and add them to their articles. I bet, all those articles will be full of crimes, their details and thus their will be massive edit wars. Have you read British Americans? Do you see any "issues" or list of crimes with specific details? Adding some crimes with their details will simply black wash the article. If there is honour killings, it's good to mention them, but don't need to fill the article with honour killings issues. If you look the edits of this user, you will realize that he has literally ***** all Kurdish articles. For example, he has filled Kurdish women article with tons of crimes and their details. I have 63 times proved that his edits violates WP:FAKE, WP:ORIGINAL, WP:RELIABLE, WP:NPOV and many other rules. Compare Kurdish women to Women in Iran, Women in Pakistan or Women in Iraq. You will realize that none of those articles mention details of crimes or have been filled with list of crimes. Seriously, just compare them. Ferakp (talk) 10:29, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
British Americans is hardly comparable, because that is a huge, diverse group, whereas Kurds in Sweden constitute a smaller, more cohesive community which has experienced specific issues with integration, which are documented in reliable sources. A better comparison would be with an article such as British migration to Spain, which does have a social issues section. As for "filling" the article, surely the solution here is to expand the other sections so that this material, which is not particularly lengthy, does not dominate.
