Can someone please add the date for one of the maps

"Maunsell's map, a Pre-World War I British Ethnographical Map of the Middle East, showing the Kurdish regions in yellow (both light and dark)"

On the map it says it was published in 1910. Can you please add the year of the map at the end? Thank you! :)70.29.14.147 (talk) 03:30, 11 September 2021 (UTC) Arnold[reply]

Kurdish 100 million people

Concer Aland jakob (talk) 11:55, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Under the Religion section on the main page Muslim or Islam is not listed in bold as are the other listed religions

The main religion of the Kurds Muslim or Islam is downplayed by not being listed in bold print as the other less practiced religions. Someone making a fast scan of this article would might be mislead to missing that fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meztoa (talk • contribs) 18:16, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Flag doesn't belong to the Kurds

First of all, there is no single source that says that flag belongs to the Kurds. Second thing is that no other ethnicies have a flag added to their ethnicity box. Requesting the flag to be removed. SkyEditor85 (talk) 17:15, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 26 December 2021

It is requested that an edit be made to the extended-confirmed-protected article at Kurds. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any extended confirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{EEp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Requesting so called "Kurdish flag" to be removed. Other ethnicities do not use flag, neither there is a single flag. The current flag belongs to the Iraqi Kurdistan regional government and it's even banned in some NE Syrian Kurdish areas. The flag isn't even allowed in many Northern Kurdish meetings.
