== Bias. == |
|
|
|
|
|
I genuinely beleive that this article heavilly slanted in the Greco-Cypriot's point of view. When I attempted to make the article more neutral, my edits were deleted (by a Greek, incidently). And, further-more, I was treated with patronization, and not with the dignity & respect a fellow Misplaced Pages deserves. Misplaced Pages clearly states that its articles must be unbiased, & Misplaced Pages is not a battleground, nor is it a propaganda journal. |
|
|
|
|
|
For instance: |
|
|
- The article refers to the Republic of Cyprus as an "island nation", it is ''clearly'' no-more an island nation than Éire is. |
|
|
- The flag presented depicts the island of Cyprus in it, yet surely the 2004 neutral flag would be more appropriate? |
|
|
- The territory shown includes the land occupied by the RoC, TRNC, UN zone, & the UK bases; this does not constitute the true territory of the RoC. |
|
|
- The style of the article is not as though it was presenting the Republic of Cyprus as viewpoint/perspective, as it should; but as a fact, which it should not do. |
|
|
|
|
|
Also, unrelatedly, the ethnicity descritions are incorrect: a Greek is, & only is, a national of the Hellenic Republic; & the Turkish are those, & only those, who are nations of Turkey. To describe one says they are Greco, & Turk, respectively. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> |

I agree with the above. No real mention of EOKA's genocide of Turkish Cypriot villages in the South. Very slanted to the Greek perspective. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 10:10, 4 September 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:: I also think that we should include massacres committed by EOKA B. We cannot deny the truth about the atrocities committed by both sides during the war and it would be unbiased if we do so. But I disagree with the usage of proposed 2004 flag, as this was rejected anyway. The use of word 'island nation' also is a set thing. Cyprus has been referred to as 'Island nation' due to political reasons as it is accepted by international community that the Republic of Cyprus represent the entire island, therefore (even if not de facto correct) is an appropriate usage. In addition, territories shown on this page do clearly show the bases and territories not under effective control of the Republic (occupied north is shown with lighter green!). Furthermore, ethnicity is shown correctly. I rather prefer it to be called Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot than just Greek or Turkish (that would also be politically biased). You can change anything you want but please do not make this article a battleground and keep editing and deleting everything the way you like it to be. ] (]) 21:07, 20 November 2012 (UTC) |

== RE : In 1974, following the intercommunal violence between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, an attempted coup......... took place. == |
|
|
|
|
|
<i>In 1974, following the intercommunal violence between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, an attempted coup d'état by Greek Cypriot nationalists and elements of the Greek military junta with the aim of achieving enosis (union of the island with Greece) took place.</i> |
|
|
|
|
|
The inter communal violence occurred in 1963, that is, 11 years before the coup of 1974. The clashes of 1967 was a confrontation between militants at Kokkina. The article as it is, will mislead the reader into thinking there was inter communal violence in 1974, shortly before the coup. The phrase "following the intercommunal violence" implies that inter communal violence was a factor in the decision to overthrow the legitimate government when it wasn't. This sentence must be changed to address these points. ] (]) 07:16, 4 September 2012 (UTC) |

== RE : The intercommunal violence and <u>subsequent</u><sup>??</sup> Turkish invasion led to the displacement of over 150,000 Greek Cypriots and 50,000 Turkish Cypriots, == |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Turkish names for Cyprus == |
|
There are a couple problems with this sentence. <br> |
|
|
1. What inter communal violence is the sentence referring to ? The ] in 1974 happened <u><b>AFTER</u></b> the 2nd Turkish invasion (14th August), not before. So the sentence should read "The Turkish invasion and subsequent intercommunal violence".<br> |
|
|
2. The 50,000 Turkish Cypriots in the Greek held territory were "displaced" to the Turkish side in 1975, a year after the Turkish invasion. At the same time, a few thousand Greeks trapped in the north came to the south. The displacement of those 50,000 Turkish Cypriots (and Greeks of the north) was the result of an agreement between the Greeks and Turks in 1975, not (directly) by the Turkish invasion in 1974.<br> |
|
|
The sentence as it is now, implies this sequence of events |
|
|
* 1. Inter communal violence |
|
|
* 2. Turkish invasion |
|
|
* 3. Displacement of 150,000 Greek Cypriots and 50,000 Turkish Cypriots |
|
|
But the truth, which can be easily backed up by Turkish sources, is this |
|
|
* 1. Turkish invasion |
|
|
* 2. Inter communal violence, and displacement of 150,000 Greek Cypriots (I don't know how many TCs) |
|
|
* 3. One year later, in 1975, agreement to displace 50,000 Turkish Cypriots from the south and the remaining Greek Cypriots in the north |
|
|
This sentence must be rewritten to address my points. ] (]) 07:55, 4 September 2012 (UTC) |

In case one is asking me for the reason for my recent edits, I added mentions of the Turkish government and that of the TRNC not recognising the internationally recognised government of Cyprus and calling it the "Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus" and the "Greek Cypriot Administration" while citing the following sources: |

:::CMD, what communal violence "which we all know" are you referring too ? The sentence begins as <i>"In 1974, following the intercommunal violence....."</i>. It reads as if <i>"In 1974, there was inter communal violence followed by a coup"</i> which is not the case. The reader should know the post-independence the violence was almost exclusively in 2 periods, 1963/4 and 1967. If anything, the reader should know that there were no major clashes for the 7 years prior. If you know otherwise, consider editing the ] article for those of us who are unaware. The clashes in 1974 started on the 20th of July, the day Turkey invaded Cyprus. ] (]) 12:01, 5 September 2012 (UTC) |

@DarkLordSeth re ''"That section there refers to the inter-communal violence that started in 1963 continuing until 1974"'': I think that's the misconception that Helen is trying to address. That the intercommunal violence wasn't ''"continuing until 1974"'' (which led to the coup and subsequently to the invasion) but that the last incident of violence was in 1967 and that 7 years later there was a coup not as a response to intercommunal violence 7 years ago but for other reasons. ] (]) 14:48, 5 September 2012 (UTC) |

:The current sentence doesn't suggest that the coup happened because of the inter-communal violence. It simply provides a chronological situation. It uses the word "following" instead of "due to". That said it's not a myth that the coup attempt in 1974 was a bloody one. I don't think anyone would deny that and the fact that Turks were not left alone during or before this coup attempt. So, we can easily say that the intercommunal violence have extended up to 1974. What HelenOfOz actually suggests in his initial post that intercommunal violence was directly caused by Turkish intervention. This seems rather like a try to shift a presumed blame. ] (]) 20:14, 5 September 2012 (UTC) |

The article suffers from non-neutrality that stems from looking at the conflict as a bilateral, or quadrilateral conflict. I ask the editors to zoom out and see that there is a global consensus that the Turkish occupation is illegal, and that the declaration of independence of the occupied territory has been condemned by the United Nations. As per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV one may attribute these statements to the United Nations themselves. Please do not water down the statements, as that is a violation of NPOV: WP:IMPARTIAL and NPOV: WP:UNDUE, as only Turkey wishes to make claims to the contrary. Consider that NPOV: WP:DUE asks that the representation of the viewpoints matches the weight of the ones having the viewpoint, and the United Nations has the collective weight of 192 countries besides Turkey. Thus, as per NPOV: WP:DUE the article should take the position of the United Nations and delegate any Turkish specifications to footnotes. |

clarified that the area given of 9,251 sqkm 'Includes Northern Cyprus, the UN buffer zone, and Akrotiri and Dhekelia'. This answers ]. However, I have some further points: |
|
|
# what is the reference for the assertion that the area is of the island rather than the state? Given the confusion in the sources, it is not sufficient to rely on a single source giving a single figure with no context; there should hopefully be a reliable source which gives '''both''' the island '''and''' the state areas at the same time. |
|
|
# can the infobox also include the state area? That would be a better match for the area_rank statistic, which as it stands is meaningless. |

I don't really care which figure(s) get priority in the infobox, as all of them are available somewhere, with references. Maybe the infobox can crosslink to a subsection. |

::::It's interesting that marks the Turkish-occupied portion but makes no reference to the UK bases (or the UN buffer zone). It's not clear whether they were included in the 2011 census or not, or more generally to what extent the statistical service regards them as falling within its remit. ]<sup>(])</sup> 15:32, 20 November 2012 (UTC) |

:::::As far as I know, because the British bases do not officially make part of the Republic as the independence treaty signed with Britain clearly states that Cyprus is independent except two bases which belong to the UK. Therefore I am not sure if RoC would even count bases in any of its statistics simply because they are not part of the country. They still try to county North simply because it makes an integral part of the Republic even if it had de facto declared independence from Cyprus. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 16:01, 20 November 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

::::::I understand that thinking; however, the map I linked to does not show the bases at all. It might be that the Republic of Cyprus government downplays their existence to some extent, allowing the view to persist that they are leased or temporarily granted to the UK by the Republic, as ], rather than totally external to the Republic. I'm not suggesting that the Republic officially takes such a view, merely that it is less than eager (for whatever reason) to prevent misconceptions. That's just an impression I have, which isn't directly relevant to the article, except that if true it might help explain why statistical breakdowns are hard to track down. ]<sup>(])</sup> 17:17, 20 November 2012 (UTC) |

:::::::Sorry, I was actually going to point that out too before we had a random power cut. Yes, it is bizarre that bases are shown as Cypriot territory. And that is not the case. I have seen many maps and sources where bases were shown as Cypriot territory and I am sure that the government is fully aware it is not a temporary lease, it is simply given to the UK in the independence treaty. There might be contemporary disagreement in public on that subject but everyone is aware they are British bases. However, also true that due to that attitude, it may be difficult to track down sovereign base populations. As a Cypriot, I have not actually ever heard population in bases being considered as Cypriots. Maybe British sources can point out exact statistics on the bases? ] (]) 20:34, 20 November 2012 (UTC) |

In case one is asking me for the reason for my recent edits, I added mentions of the Turkish government and that of the TRNC not recognising the internationally recognised government of Cyprus and calling it the "Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus" and the "Greek Cypriot Administration" while citing the following sources:
My edits pertain to the names that the Turkish government and that of the TRNC commonly use to refer to the internationally recognised government of Cyprus and there are no better sources concerning their opinions and names about Cyprus than their own websites. - Hu753 (talk) 00:52, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
The article suffers from non-neutrality that stems from looking at the conflict as a bilateral, or quadrilateral conflict. I ask the editors to zoom out and see that there is a global consensus that the Turkish occupation is illegal, and that the declaration of independence of the occupied territory has been condemned by the United Nations. As per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV one may attribute these statements to the United Nations themselves. Please do not water down the statements, as that is a violation of NPOV: WP:IMPARTIAL and NPOV: WP:UNDUE, as only Turkey wishes to make claims to the contrary. Consider that NPOV: WP:DUE asks that the representation of the viewpoints matches the weight of the ones having the viewpoint, and the United Nations has the collective weight of 192 countries besides Turkey. Thus, as per NPOV: WP:DUE the article should take the position of the United Nations and delegate any Turkish specifications to footnotes.
Once again, the United Nations take precedence over Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, or the EU. Please make sure that the article abides by the following UN resolutions:
UN Security Council Resolution 186 (1964): Reaffirms the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus over the entire island.
UN General Assembly Resolution 3212 (1974): Demands the withdrawal of all foreign military forces from the island, rendering the Turkish occupation globally condemnable.
UN Security Council Resolution 541 (1983): Condemns the unilateral declaration of independence, and establishes the lack of legal and political illegitimacy of the TRNC.
UN Security Council Resolution 550 (1984): Condemns attempts to settle any part of Varosha (Famagusta) by anyone other than its lawful inhabitants.
UN Security Council Resolution 1251 (1999): Calls for a bicommunal, bizonal federation as a basis for a solution.
In summary, please make sure that your edits reflect the global condemnation of Turkish actions on the island as per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and NPOV: WP:DUE, and delegate pro-Turkey opinions as per NPOV: WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and WP:UNDUE. 82.102.110.228 (talk) 17:28, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
