This line:

It should also be noted that citizens of the Republic of Azerbaijan, may have different origins than the Azaris of Iran, most likely Caucasian, with Iranian Azaris being of Indo-Iranian (i.e. 'Aryan') descent.

is original research and you cannot find such claims in any reliable source. --Grandmaster 10:13, 23 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

It is your personal interpretation of tests, which is not allowed. If you can find such an interpretation made by an authoritative scholar, you can add it to the article, but you cannot make any interpretations yourself, it is OR. --Grandmaster 04:49, 24 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I simply added the genetic tests. Also, I removed Parishans interpretation, as the quotes taken always point to a particular origin.Hajji Piruz 16:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
