Compromise
editLet's try a compromise. If genocide is too loaded a word, massacre works as well, since it directs to the same article. If Bitlis was not part of Armenia politically but contained a population of ethnic Armenians, we can say that instead. And for now I don't think we need a specific source that Bitlis had a significant Armenian ethnic population since Bitlis is noted in the article Armenian Massacre as a place where the massacre ocurred; so there must have been some Armenians there to massacre, yes?

Reference
editIt would be nice to have a page number for Reference 2. Thatcher131 02:00, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Duplication
editHovik95 has been duplicating the articles for six of the Ottoman provinces. See The Six Armenian Vilayets. --Bejnar (talk) 20:22, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Alternative names
editThis article is related with a province (Bitlis Province) not with a city (Bitlis). So we mustn't add alternative names of the city of Bitlis. We can add alternative names of the province of Bitlis with reliable sources. Takabeg (talk) 06:41, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
This article is eye-hurting to me
editI don't know if it is only just me but the whole page is so lacking, with unnecesarry information present and necesarry information not seeable. Youprayteas talk/contribs 19:13, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
