Minicoyans are Mahls.
Yes, Minicoyans are Mahls. Mahls is a term used to refer to the Indian Dhivehis. As Minicoyans are Indian Dhivehis the fact that they are Mahls can't be ignored by anyone. The Mahls are one among the three subgroups of Dhivehis. The other two subgroups are the main group of Maldivians as well as Dhivehis and the Southern group of Maldivians or the Suvadivians. The reason I am asking to merge this page into Dhivehi people is that, already the information in this article is present in the article Dhivehi people and it is the same over here. Like a small ethnic group such as the Dhivehi people there is not much which can be included within separate articles for subgroups. It is only the information in the article Dhivehi people which is now included here and if this article is to be expanded further the information already in the article Dhivehi people will get repeated again and again. It will be better to include any available information for the subgroup within the article Dhivehi people. If separate articles are to be written for all the three subgroups the articles will remain as Wikipedia stubs only. And only it will be the information within the article Dhivehi people which will be repeated again and again. There are not much extra information for the subgroups that separate articles can be written. The available little extra information can be included in the article Dhivehi people itself. All the subgroups of Dhivehis share the same culture, language, history and ethnicity. The minor differences are not as much as that a long article can be written. The minor differences can be outlined in the article Dhivehi people itself and doing so will be better. It will be the same information which will get repeated again and again. These are the reasons why I have to ask to merge this page into Dhivehi people. Leone ( talk) 12:51, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
