# Talk:Fakhr al-Mulk Ridwan

Isn't he more commonly called "Ridwan"?  Every English account that I've seen that mentions him uses that transliteration. john k 23:26, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Me too, although sometimes it is also "Rudwan". Adam Bishop 23:00, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Is the use of melikdom correct here? Melik seems to be an Armenian title, used, as far as I can tell, exclusively in a different geographic region (Eastern Armenia). I can't find any search results on Google for "Seljuk melikdom" or "Syrian melikdom". Perhaps amir/emir (emirate) should be stuck to instead? See, for example, Shams al-Muluk Duqaq: this article describes him as founding a "melikdom" in Damascusus while that article simply refers to him as "Emir of Damascus".

"Meliklik" is solely used in Turkish sources. I haven't seen the usage of "emirate" in English sources. Also, Melikdom is an Arabic term, not the other one. --► Sincerely: Solavirum 20:34, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Jr8825, it is referred to as Malikdom here. --► Sincerely: Solavirum 20:36, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

The short description should go to the top of the article (MOS:ORDER).
"giving them freedom" → "giving them the freedom"
"as appanage" → "as an appanage"
Remove the comma after "reach out to Tutush".
Remove the comma after "28 August 1097".
"Duqaq latter feared" → "Duqaq later feared"
"give Ridwan an opportunity" → "allow Ridwan"
Capitalize Sufis.
Remove the comma after "lands surrounding Aleppo".

Fixed everything till the alphabetization of the categories. Y

Note that most of the background section of the article shares similarity to this article's background section, which we touched upon here. --► Sincerely: Solavirum 20:49, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
