Cleanup work

Cleanup work is needed on this page. There was info other editors had tagged as uncited material from several years ago, including 2015 and 2017. There were so many images and pictures that were clogging up the page for the readers. The lede section is woefully too short and fails WP:LEAD, it is not an adequate summary of the entire article's contents. I did a bit of cleanup work to improve the page with these items in mind. Thank you, Right cite (talk) 21:22, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed some of the images and added several tags which might help anyone who is willing to work on the cleanup. I agree with your observations. cheers Sadkσ (talk is cheap) 01:50, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of Turkey to the infobox

Turkey actually has a quite prominent Bosniak minority. They are partly Turkified but I still think that they need to be mentioned in the infobox. 2 million figure seems unlikely and unreliable (even for descendants), but I've found a paper (in Turkish) about the ethnic composition of Turkey. According to the paper there are around 40.000 (citing a 2006 KONDA research) to 101.000 (citing United States Center for World Mission) Bosniaks living in Turkey. In 1965 (the last Turkish census with linguistic data) there were around 50.000 Bosniac speakers too. Apart from that this paper supposedly state that there are around 600 to 800 thousand people of Bosniak origin in Turkey, yet I can't confirm as I can't speak Serbo-Croatian. --89.245.131.94 (talk) 11:56, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 23 November 2020

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

As stated in the above section, I request the addition of Turkey to the infobox. It should be " Turkey: 40.000 to 800.000 (est.)", citing the two sources given above. 89.245.131.94 (talk) 11:16, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done After reviewing the sources carefully and searching for the original sources used in that thesis, I determined that the KONDA report (2006) seems to be most reliable. The most important info is on page 15 (0.06% Bosniak) and page 16 (48 million population used in calculations). This leads to a rough total of 28,800 Bosniaks as of 2006, which I added to the infobox. If you want to introduce the other sources that you are referring to (USCWM, census, etc.), please find them in their original form before reviving this request.

I think it is important to add that Bosniaks are autochthonous European people in order to avoid misunderstanding related to factually incorrect narratives.

Semi-protected edit request on 10 December 2021

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Bosniaks. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Edit native to native and indigenous Slavic people. This is because they are indigenous to the Balkans and Primarily to Bosnia. Thank you 2405:6E00:DB2:4700:15C4:89D5:E53A:346 (talk) 04:41, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
