Spelling[edit]

Is the the same person as Abulfez Elchibey? Could someone confirm the correct spelling, and delete an article / setup a redirect as necessary? Vclaw 01:39, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Birth Date[edit]

What is the citation for the birth date? The non-wikipedia sources that I found (http://rulers.org/indexe.html#elchi and http://www.rochester.edu/college/faculty/hgoemans/data.htm) have 1938-06-07 as his birth date? Jrnold (talk) 23:54, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 2007[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Abülfaz Elçibay → Abulfaz Elchibey — On Wikipedia, Azeri names with diacritics are normally fully transliterated in standart Roman letters —Parishan 21:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC) - Discussion section added by SigPig |^{SEND - OVER} 12:45, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey - in support of the move[edit]

Support. Target name is more common; even sites that use the former spelling omit the diacritics. --SigPig |^{SEND - OVER} 12:55, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support. We should use common English spelling. Grandmaster 16:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support I've always been in support of this, especially on the page Ilham Aliyev. --adil 17:32, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey - in opposition to the move[edit]

Strong Oppose That's his actual name, plain Latin alphabet with diacritics that are perfectly acceptable in English. No need to fabricate a new name.--Hús ö nd 02:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I said I don't want to take part in the vote, since his only true name is Əbülfəz Elçibəy and not Abulfaz Elchibey, nor Abülfaz Elçibay. But I can't abandon those who share my mind. I strongly oppose that move from a wrong spelling to a wronger one. Švitrigaila 09:30, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose and agree with Švitrigaila. —Nightst a llion (?) 16:07, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Abülfaz Elçibay → Abulfaz Elchibey – (or Əbülfəz Elçibəy) The current title is Wikipedia original research unsupported by sources. — AjaxSmack 15:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Either use the English spelling or the correct Azerbaijani spelling. The sources linked in the article use the form "Abulfaz Elchibey". There has been very extensive previous discussion of whether to use the "English" or Azerbaijani names at Talk:Ilham Aliyev, specifically here, here, and here. (As an aside and not mentioned in those discussions: Azerbaijani is perhaps unique among Latin-alphabet languages in that there are two official spellings of personal names used in passports and the like: the Azerbaijani spelling and an "English" version where diacritics are eliminated and some letters are altered. The English version is that usually used at Wikipedia. Cf. other presidents of Azerbaijan.) — AjaxSmack 15:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support to Abulfaz Elchibey. Overwhelming others. Takabeg (talk) 06:10, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support No examples of "Abülfaz Elçibay" on Google Books. Kauffner (talk) 06:43, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
