Two distinctive subjects

[edit]

This article, in its present scope, deals (primarily) with terminology related to the Syriac ethnicity and adjacent subjects, and only secondary to the subject expressed by the title (Terms for Syriac Christians). From the methodological point of view, there should be two articles:

  • an article on terminology related to the Syriac people, in terms of ethnic identity
  • an article on terminology related to Syriac Christians, in accordance with the definition of Syriac Christianity

In fact, the second subject is quite simple, and it can be elaborated as a section of the article on Syriac Christianity, since Syriac Christians rightly points on that article. Sorabino (talk) 03:28, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In order to improve structural organization of mutually distinctive thematic segments, and thus avoid potential splitting, this article could be reorganized in three main sections, along denominational, regional and ethnic lines:
  • Religious terms for Syriac Christians (covering denominational terms like: Jacobites, Maronites, Melkites, Nasranis, Nestorians)
  • Regional terms for Syriac Christians (covering Syria-Assyria naming controversy, and issues related to regional Syrian identity)
  • Ethnic terms for Syriac Christians (covering ethnonymic uses of terms like: Arameans, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Phoenicians, Syriacs)
Such reorganization in three main thematic segments could resolve various issues related to internal structure of this very complex article, and it could also improve visibility and accessibility of its contents. Sorabino (talk) 07:01, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sorabino, I support these ideas, and I will help in any way possible. Elizium23 (talk) 09:16, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Friesian.com

[edit]

Please remove https://web.archive.org/web/20000816221217/http://www.friesian.com/notes/note-n.htm from the list of further reading. I have pointed out before (see Special:Diff/1023305928) that friesian.com is the personal website of a former community college philosophy professor – hence not a reliable source on subjects other than philosophy – who is prone to going off on political tangents, and sometimes outright ranting, on pages that are ostensibly about history or philosophy. 67.170.60.91 (talk) 06:01, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Although this seems mildly controversial, done per WP:SPS (noting the website's home page calls itself a "non-peer-reviewed electronic journal"), and I agree that WP:EXPERTSPS does not apply in this case. External link sections should be carefully curated, anyway. Thank you. Ovinus (talk) 21:11, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Shmayo deletes information

[edit]

I would like to add a part about the Aramean identity on this page. The part about the Aramean identity is very short and lacks a lot of information. An example is that the Aramean identity is mainly held also by Syriac Catholic Christians. It also not true that the Aramean identity is held by 'some adherents' of the Syriac Orthodox Church. The Aramean identity is held by most of the adherents of the Syriac Orthodox and Syriac Catholic Church. 93.238.93.119 (talk) 14:57, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Unfortunately, he has been doing this for a decade—any improvement or development of anything related to Arameans gets deleted. I will try to develop the Aramean section on this site, with plenty of sources, and we’ll see how long it lasts. User623921 (talk) 12:14, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of parties

[edit]

Hi folks, please see User:Asilvering/List of ACAS parties and add your name there if this is relevant to you. Please note that this is not "parties" in the sense of parties to any kind of formal proceeding (like an arbcom case). I'm just trying to get a better understanding of who all is involved. Feel free to add other editors to the list, but do let them know you've done so. Thanks! -- asilvering (talk) 20:02, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
