Talk:Muslim migrations to Ottoman Palestine

Are refugees migrants?

edit

If through war etc., people are displaced and become refugees in a neighbouring land, are they therefore ipso facto 'migrants'. The text seems to assume that the terms are interchangeable. They are not. Nishidani (talk) 12:07, 7 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Map

edit

Hello Makeandtoss, the map is backed by articles that describe the migrations in detail. All it does is show the main destinations in the academic books and articles found in the article. you are welcome to prove otherwise.

Maps like this one must be supported by RS because there is a very clear risk of original research considering the conflation of everything between 7th and 19th century immigrations and the misleading nature due to lack of information on the size of these migrations. Onus and burden is on the inserter of the material, which is not me. Makeandtoss (talk) 13:53, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
There were multiple population movements all over the place at different times. Some were big and some were small. Combining a few that were mostly small and spread out over a long period of time without mentioning any others is not acceptable. Zerotalk 14:03, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Also, the numbers are a bit meaningless, when the article doesn't tell you the total population of Palestine (after 1596). In the end of the 19th century the population was around one million, AFAIK. A few hundred, or even a few thousand immigrating to a country with a million inhabitants, is different from the same number immigrating to a country with ~200 k inhabitants, Huldra (talk) 21:18, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Also, there should be a link to First Aliyah: it seems to me that any Muslim immigration in the period was dwarfed by the Jewish one, Huldra (talk) 21:25, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
