This page has a Turkish version and it should be in an English version. should not be deleted and more information is added over time.

Should be merged with Zazas#Zaza nationalism

Ebubekir Pamukçu, a Turkish journalist/writer is essentially the only source for this whole article and the rest is filler with attempts to preserve the Zaza languages being mixed in or insinuated as a form of nationalism in the article. Since the last vote, there has been no additional strength added to why a standalone article should exist, other than a political motive to be used as weight to argue that Zazas are not Kurds, in my opinion. --TataofTata (talk) 13:22, 11 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
