# Talk:Declaration of Independence of Azerbaijan

The original text section of this article appears to be incorrect, and clearly differs from the text in images of the document and monument.
It is also written in the modern Iranian Azerbaijani alphabet, based on a reformed orthography introduced by the Varliq magazine, rather than the one used historically in both Caucasian and Iranian Azerbaijan, making it impossible that it dates from the time of the original declaration. For example:

The letter "[ڴ] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)", as in "[بویوک روسیه انقلابنڴ] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)" in the original document, is replaced with "[ین] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)", as in "[بؤیوک روسیا اینقیلابی‌نین] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)".
The letters [ؤ] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help) and [ئ] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help), are used for Ö and E. The letters do originally exist in the Arabic script, but are not used for the Ö and E sounds outside of the Varliq orthography, simply being forms of the Həmzə mark, and do not appear in the images of the original document either.
It is entirely phonetically transcribed, with every "I" being written with a "[ی] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)". This is contrary to the orthography of the period, which wrote loanwords in their original forms, regardless of pronunciation, and also differs from the original document.
Additionally, it has a number of clear spelling errors that are not in the original version. For example:

"[آزربایجان] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)" in place of "[آذربایجان] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)"
"[وتنیه] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)" in place of "[وطنیه] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)"
"[روسیا] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)" in place of "[روسیه] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)"
"[بی] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)" in place of "[بک] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)"
...among many more. 
From what I can tell, the version in the original text section appears to be some kind of machine transliteration of the Latin Azerbaijani text, rather than the actual original text. Some of the mistakes in it are so obvious that I doubt someone literate in the Azerbaijani Arabic script could make them, including misspelling the word Azerbaijan ([آذربایجان] Error: {{Langx}}: invalid parameter: |script= (help)) itself, highly suggesting it was done by a program. This text originally appears to have originated from the Azerbaijani Wikipedia, which also suffers from it. 
If it is acceptable to other editors, I will replace it with the original text. An ALA-LC transliteration to the Latin script would also be appropriate. Samiollah1357 (talk) 18:12, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing this out. Yes, please correct it if you can. — Golden call me maybe? 18:53, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
Has been done, but for some reason the text does not align to the right correctly when it is in in the columns.Samiollah1357 (talk) 05:14, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
I have found and implemented a solution, and the text is now correctly aligned. Samiollah1357 (talk) 06:32, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
