Copy edit tag

As written, the content of the Overview section is just more history of the region. Consequently, we shouldn't have a separate heading for Overview and History. _signed, Rosguill 20:38, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

Turkestan → Turkestan (historical region) – I made a disambiguation page called Turkistan, however I want to change this to Turkestan. For this we need to move this page as I said. There are lot of articles called Turkistan or Turkestan. Opinions? Beshogur (talk) 10:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

• Restore the redirect from Turkistan to Turkestan (diff here). We already have Turkestan (disambiguation) so this is essentially a content fork.

Türkistan is a redirect targeting Turkestan but nothing at Turkistan uses that spelling, so I removed it from the intro (and did other MoS fixes). I do prefer the formatting at the newer DAB, so it could be merged into Turkestan (disambiguation), but to nobody's surprise the two DABs have much the same entries. 85.238.91.38 (talk) 12:04, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

The problem is, it has to get to that page when we write "Turkestan". So without a "(disambiguation)" tag. Beshogur (talk) 12:07, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

Why? The disambiguation page is linked in hatnote per WP:DABLINK. Presumably consensus is that the article at Turkestan is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. You are, in effect, asserting that there is WP:NOPRIMARY, but you've not shown any evidence of that. Editors should not be linking to disambiguation pages in the article body text. 85.238.91.38 (talk) 12:40, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

• Comment. I have disambiguated most links to Turkistan. There are a handful remaining which I don't know what to do with. 85.238.91.38 (talk) 20:19, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

@HistoryofIran:, you will almost claim that such a region does not even exist. --Beshogur (talk) 21:29, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
