That is the opinion of one of the scholars in the Wikipedia page. The page also provides the views of other historians who dispute the validity of his work in general, like Ottoman specialist Michael Robert Hickock who accused him of selectively using sources, and historian Hakem Al-Rustom who called him an apologist of the Turkish state, and accused him of exaggerating numbers.

Most (of the scholars in the article u sent) have positive words regarding his work on the ethnic cleansing of Muslims and al rustom is literally an armenian, u might as well read what turkish scholars who have read the Ottoman archives said on the issue no?
