Delete: Not only is the map unsourced, it is also highly inaccurate and unreliable in areas, and the categorization of some ethnic groups was also created reflecting the uploaders fantasy rather than based on facts. Menikure (talk) 11:52, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The roughly 2,000 Greeks of Turkey live only in Istanbul and the island of Gökçeada (Imbros) and the Christian Bulgarians who number 500 live only in Istanbul both as tiny minorities. They do not constitue a majority in any area in Turkey since the population exchange between Greece and Turkey in 1923, so the coloring is false and highly obsolete. Turks, Azerbaijanis and Turkmens are indeed three distinct ethnic groups who are closely related to each other. However the Yörüks are classified as a sub-ethnic group of the Turkish people, the Qarapapaqs as a sub-ethnic group of the Azerbaijani people, and the Chepni people were an ancient Turkic clan. The map is not only largely unsourced, it is indeed very erroneous regarding the coloring depicting Greeks and Bulgarians as forming majorities in a specific area and the classification of the three Turkic sub-ethnic groups and clan as distinct ethnic groups.

 Delete Apart from being a duplicate, the file is lacking to a large degree in reliable sources and the information is non-verifiable for the large majority of the ethnic groups listed. Furthermore, the uploader is using other uploaded files in Wikimedia Commons as reference, which too mostly or totally lack reliable sources and are either mostly or totally non-verifiable.
