The two references used in the article pertain to a genetic study from 2017, which found a close genetic affinity between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots overall; there is no mention of any "Greco-Turkish Cypriots" or "Turco-Greek Cypriots". The article violates WP:SYNTHESIS. Demetrios1993 (talk) 13:24, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete, this is a misuse of the source. The paper concerned could be mentioned in other existing articles, but that's a different task. SpinningSpark 16:55, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Spinningspark: Thanks for taking the time to vote. By the way, the aforementioned genetic study is already covered in both the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriots articles that relate. Demetrios1993 (talk) 10:56, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
