Hello! I have started a review of this article. Before I begin my review I would like to thank the nominator and all other contributors for their work. This article is about a group of people, which are sensitive topics as well as a large topic. My main concern with this article is that it is quite small for an article about a (sub)ethnic group. At a minimum, a page of this topic should have history, some demographics if available, cultural and religious information at a minimum, if they are not culturally or religiously distinct perhaps this article should just be a subsection of the Kurds article. I have some points about the current content:

1. Your lead is a summary of your article, and the information in it should be found in your main article. e.g. the Russian conquests of the Caucasus should be mentioned outside the lead.
2. Adding to point 1, the main article is missing information. It does not explain how or why they are refugees, and only gives numbers and some very general information.
3. Overall the history section is rather sketchy and missing decades of time, or only has 1-2 lines of information.
4. The villages & politics section is confusing, it has no introduction or explanation, is over 30 years old, is missing information, and to be honest, does not seem neutral. Why a table of villages and their political affiliations at all?
5. The article is most definitely not broad in coverage unfortunately, and needs to have more about their culture/society.

Considering all of the above, I unfortunately can not pass this article based on the GA criteria. Substantial additions and restructuring are needed. I will put the review on hold for 7 days to allow time for any comments, rebuttals or potential edits. I will review it again after this time, and if it has not met the standards, I will finalise this review. BlackfullaLinguist (talk) 10:06, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
