Changing article name to "List of Turkish Germans"

edit

As discussed with @Loveisthebest1:, it is more appropriate for the name of this list to be on "List of Turkish Germans" (in line with similar article lists, e.g. List of Turkish Americans, List of Turkish Australians, List of Turkish Canadians, List of Turkish Cypriots, etc. This is a more inclusive title of those who are born in the country, regardless of their citizenship, as well as ethnic Turkish immigrants who have obtained German citizenship.

Goethe as a "Beuteturk"

edit

Goethe should not be under this heading; the Beutetürken [de] article states that this term is used to refer to decendants of prisoners from 17/18th century wars. Also, is there any point in listing Goethe's family on this page at all? A single (dubious) ancestor from over 400 years ago doesn't make someone "Turkish"...
