Comments

Noticing that the German version of this article had a lot more text, I have tried to translate some of it. However, I struggled with some of the details, particularly the list of peoples of whom Kazakhstan is made up (many of the referenced articles had no translation links):

"es steht aber auch als Zeichen, dass das Volk der Kasachen hauptsächlich aus einer Verschmelzung der mittelasiatischen Kimek, Türgesch, Tschigil, Scha-t'o, Uiguren und Naimanen mit den Mongolen entstanden ist."

I also haven't attempted the "history" section, since it would require getting to know far more about the topic in order to do it justice. Hopefully either someone can improve on my efforts, or the article can be expanded from other English sources. - IMSoP 17:20, 25 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The Hebrew version of this article was Wikipedia's 1,000,000th, between all languages. -- user:zanimum

Hasn't it got 33 rays instead of 32?

I want to add, that the German article sais in the middle there is a "Falke" (means Falcon) but the English version of this article sais it is an eagle (german: Adler)...

The bird is the Golden Eagle, which incidentally can be trained in falconry. Selerian (talk) 23:07, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One by two?

Just checked out the CIA files. It looks like KZ has opted for the 2 by 3 combination, just like what the Russians did with their (so to speak) new flag of the post Soviet era. It means that the width to the flag of KZ has (or would have) shrunk by 25 %. What has happened? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.134.28.194 (talk) 11:11, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just for the sake of adding to the confusion, an Embassy of KZ still seems to present a flag that is 100 % more in width than length. Not 50, so one by two should be written without the ? mark. But I have observed that the CIA has drawn a flag that is 3 times 4 1/2 inches....is this a case for Ripley? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.108.29.11 (talk) 22:35, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Read the edit summaries. Your file is a bad version of an already existing file, and the files you have been removing across various articles are not incorrect! Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 03:41, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sources @Vif12vf:,SOVIET PERIOD IN KAZAKHSTAN Soviet Kazakhstan The Kyrgyz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was set up in 1920 and was renamed the Kazakh Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic in 1925 when the Kazakhs were differentiated officially from the Kyrgyz. (The Russian Empire recognized the ethnic difference between the two groups; it called them both "Kyrgyz" to avoid confusion between the terms "Kazakh" and "Cossack.") The Bolsheviks gained control of Kazakhstan in 1920 and then sought to preserve Russian control under a new political system ВотанБатан (talk) 04:03, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Atrocious grammar in the history section, I fixed some of it as you can see in the edits, but whoever wrote it clearly has no respect for the english language, to say it lightly. 92.47.56.34 (talk) 01:24, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
