circumstances we would not use sources that are clearly affiliated to one "side" or the other of an argument. For example. just because person A is killed in violent circumstances does not mean that they were killed because of their ethnicity or whatever. They may equally have been killed as a consequence of a territorial dispute, a familial difference of opinion (eg: marriage issues), a dispute between criminal gangs, someone who they owed money to, etc. We simply cannot make sense of this ourselves and I worry greatly that using sources with an agenda, as surely the ones I mention must have, is not conducive to what Knowledge is about. As many contributors to this article will already know, WP is an imperfect environment ... but that does not mean that this or any other article should be written as an exception to that imperfect environment. News sources such as CNN and the BBC are surely much better, and better still would be academic studies if such things exist for what appears from this article to be a quite recent development.

Without actually reaching for a dictionary, the term "genocide" seems to me to imply a systematic, organised campaign to murder all members of an ethnic group in a given place. From the existing sources in the article, those that are authoritative and neutral (such as Amnesty International and Human

There is a PDF document available via the source. That document mentions Hazara twice and those mentions refer to specific instances of anti-Hazara violence. Nowhere in it can I spot the claim that was made in our statement. Usually I would tag it with a {{Pn}} template but in this instance, rather

and you might find it instructive to review what happened in that instance. Your agenda is pretty clear and has been noted at ANI, your contrary accusations of bias are unfounded and your understanding of policy etc seems to demonstrate a tendency to run before you can walk. Please self-revert and

Imran is a world renowned person alright. As a cricketer, and as a prominent Pakistani leader. His cricketing fame is of no consequence here, but his being an important Pakistani leader does provide weight to his views. It is not necessary that he should be named there. I can add more sources for

Rights Watch) seem not to use the term in relation to the Hazaras in Quetta. While there is certainly persecution and some of the killings have involved tens of people, I can see nothing to justify us using such as emotive word as "genocide" nor to categorise this article in that category. -

Are we really supposed to be happy using sources such as hazara.net and hazara news? I am not disputing that there is persecution (I really do not know, but it sounds about right for the extensive social bigotry that is found in Pakistan and India - nutters, most of them) but under normal

However, the genocide soon became targeted against the Hazaras. Pashtun guides were used to target Hazara households, whose occupants were then massacred;women were raped,and thousands were taken to the Mazar jail, locked into containers and left to

I mostly welcome inclusion of multiple opinions. But when "genocide" is being discussed in an article, mentioning it in the lead is completely necessary. Can add more sources for "genocide" of Hazaras. Stop whitewashing and don't edit war. See

Furthermore the introduction contained a whole paragraph with no sources stating some pretty hefty stuff without a single source. I have removed the source less drivel please re add if you manage to find a source for these huge claims.

Hi Darkness Shines. I am enthused by your suggestion to use better sources. I fully agree that better sources should be used whenever available/found. Do the above sources relate to persecution in Pakistan/Quetta, or in Afghanistan
