Talk:Persianoid

Persianoid
I think this term is easily cited and atested for. It has many related terms such as negroid, congoid, africanoid, caucasoid, caucazoid, europid, araboid, hellenoid, indianoid, mongoloid, australoid, and americanoid, iberiod, celtoid, and mixoid, i believe that there is wide availability for all the other terms but that persianoid related information has been censored by google books but if you search harder you realize it's real i have seen it in anthropology books and those books and classes helped me figure out who i am and where i came from because i have generally celtoid features with lots of hellenoid features, geographically a huge group of people are hellenoid from Greece to Afghanistan others turkoid or persianoid or araboid or indianoid and having all these terms available helps people understand their ancestry so we should not leave out persianoids for we would be leaving out a ton of people.


 * The article has been deleted from Wikipedia as a hoax: . Try getting it back in there before you add it here. Also, Google Books hasn't censored anything: the word simply isn't in common use. Equinox ◑ 07:16, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The word you want is Persoid, which is rather rare, but just about exists (16 Google books results for '"Persoid" + Persia'). iberiod? Isn't that a dog-sledding competition? Smurrayinchester (talk) 12:12, 5 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Edit conflict -- how did SM get in ahead of me? The only Google hit is to the deleted Wikipedia article, and other search engines don't find anything either. They can't all be censoring the word.  The "-oid" suffix seems to be widely used for only the major classifications, not for subsets, though Smurrayinchester (above) has found a very rare alternative for you.

 * Haven't a clue - I just clicked save, and it went straight back to the page with no edit conflict warning. Smurrayinchester (talk) 13:26, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Same here. I wasn't complaining at you, just puzzled by the sequence.  Anyway, thanks for finding the correct term -- just about citeable.     D b f  i  r  s   07:15, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
 * See WT:RFC. This is the tip of the iceberg. Chuck Entz (talk) 17:02, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
