User talk:Deni MataevYour mapHey, thanks for making this map [[1]]. It looks really good on the page. I just wanted to point out: it might give readers wrong impressions about Dvals and Kists. With regard to both, the different coloring might give the incorrect impression taht they were independent from Georgia, which they weren't. They were (and still are, in the case of the Kists) ethnic minorities living within the Georgian realm. Also, to put hte Kists on a map also including Malkhicho is a little incorrect, as the Malkh disappeared a millenium before the Kists first migrated South (unless you're referring to Kists in the Medieval Georgian usage, which didn't refer to the modern people in Georgia but just to Vainakh people in general). I would suggest you color the Dval area the same as Georgia but maybe with a dashed line or something, and remove the Kists. --Yalens (talk) 18:03, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
most of the inhabitants of the Pankisi region are descendants of ethnic Chechens and Ingush (who together share the common ethnonym ìVainakhî) who migrated into the region from the North Caucasus between 1830 and 1870. Called "Kists" in Georgian, they are typically bilingual in Chechen and Georgian and number approximately 5,000" (http://iseees.berkeley.edu/bps/publications/2002_03-kurt.pdf). I think the confusion is probably because, as you noted, sometimes the word Kists can be used to mean other Nakh peoples (i.e. like Bats) historically in Georgian.--Yalens (talk) 19:36, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

DRN case closedI have closed the DRN case for Ingush people, as you brought the matter to AN3's attention and a participant was blocked. It is a short block. If, on his or her return, you feel that this can be worked out without going down the conduct resolution path (ANI, etc), please do reopen the case with DRN. We're happy to work with you guys on this issue. Thank you. --Xavexgoem (talk) 22:40, 27 June 2020 (UTC) Request translation Isabelle de CharriereHello Deni Mataev Would you write/ translate the article of Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386) for de CE wiki?
