There must be translation
editThis page needs to be translated into a scientific Turkish page that contains more data. It is full of very inaccurate, biased and debunkable information. The Turkish version contains many more sources and scientific data. In order to introduce the Zaza people, it would be appropriate to translate them into the language of the country where they live. Zazaki wikipedia can help you with this. [Zazas, (Wikipeda Turkish Language)] [Zazas, (Wikipedia Zazaki Language)] Deylemi (talk) 15:49, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Edit Request: Selfidentification
editGood evening, I would like to ask you to change the points of self-identification, as most Zazas see themselves as a separate ethnic group. I am attaching the Tesav survey.
The total figures here show that 90% of the Zazas see themselves as a separate ethnic group. The "Kurdification" of the Zaza people is merely political. "According to a 2015 study that examined the demographics of the voting-age population in the Kurdish inhabited areas in Turkey (Northeast, Central East and Southeast Anatolia statistical regions, n=1918) 12.8% of the people ethnically identified as Zaza, which made Zaza the biggest ethnic identity after Kurdish (73%) in the region. Zaza speakers were more numerous (15%) compared to people who identify with the Zaza ethnic identity, showing that some Zaza speakers identified as other ethnicities, primarily Kurds" It is a survey made by TESAV. source: https://www.yada.org.tr/kurt-secmenlerin-oy-verme-dinamikleri-kuzeydogu-ortadogu-ve-guneydogu-anadolu-alt-bolgelerinde-secmenlerin-siyasal-tercihlerinin-sosyolojik-analizi/ Martinbreu.89 (talk) 22:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- The methodology of certain surveys has been criticized for being unfair. For example, a survey might ask respondents whether they consider themselves Kurds or Zazas, rather than using the more specific distinction of Kurmanj or Zaza. This approach has been perceived as part of a broader effort by Turkish authorities to create a separation between Kurdish identities. As a result, many Zazas find themselves confused by these categorizations. It is noteworthy that many Zazas continue to identify as Kurds, particularly since Kurdish political parties have gained significant support in numerous Zaza-majority villages. Additionally, there are many Zazas who also identify as Turkish. This complex interplay of identities has led to a broader discussion about how these identities are represented and understood in various surveys and studies.

Turkish Version
editThe Turkish version of this article is problematic and should be translated from the English version immediately. Turkish Version Sikorki (talk) 12:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Zaza
editI am zaza but we can not be called as a kurd in Wikipedia. Would you mind remove the sentence of often described as Zaza Kurds by. We have our own culture and language yes we did live with kurdish people ermanian people the only think is kurdish population was way more higher than us that's why they been calling us like kurdish but definitely is not we do speak our own language and kurdish people don't understand our language at all. Would be glad if you could remove often described as Zaza Kurds sentence. Many thanks. Nihatsenol (talk) 09:34, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
