Talk:Ivan Alexander of Bulgaria

message: is there any source that mention either as vassal of Ivan Alexander? Cause in Fine's Late Medieval Balkans, mentioned as source, says nothing about it. Moreover there is said that Balik, the predecessor of Dobrotitsa, defected Ivan Alexander in the 1340's, and to further assert his independence from Trnovo, Dobrotitsa separated his church from that of Trnovo (page 367) Anonimu 21:01, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure what is standard for Bulgarian, but isn't 'ъ' usually transliterated 'ă' and not 'ǎ' (e.g. breve, not hachek)? - Francis Tyers · 23:57, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm, I just checked romanisation of Bulgarian, and evidently the UN uses 'ǎ', so fair enough I guess. - Francis Tyers · 00:03, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Well, if the UN really says it's a hachek, then everything should be OK. I hadn't checked, to be honest, I thought that if ž, č, š all use a hachek, then it should be a hachek for ъ too :) User:Imladjov, who wrote most of the article actually and chose to use the scholarly transliteration system, had already used ǎ, if I remember correctly. But it's not a major issue really... on this monitor I barely see the difference :D Todor→Bozhinov 12:07, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I just took another look at the map, and it confirmed my suspicions that you're using 'ă' in the map, and 'ǎ' in the text. This isn't a big issue, but it would be nice to use the same standard within the same article. - Francis Tyers · 11:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Please check if everything's OK now. I got a bit confused by those diacritics, but I hope I've done everything right. I had to manually substitute breves with haceks in the map because the two fonts had no "ǎ" (or at least I couldn't find it in CorelDRAW). Todor→Bozhinov 13:42, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The name in Bulgarian is written Иван-Александър according to the orthography rules and I suggest that someone should change also the English orthography to Ivan-Aleksandar everywhere the name is mentioned. 95.42.243.197 (talk) 08:38, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I did a quick Google search for reference and the forms 'Ivan Alexander' and 'John Alexander' clearly predominate in English. The form 'Иван Александър'  seems to be far more popular in Bulgarian than 'Иван-Александър' as well. The name of the Bulgarian wiki article was changed without consensus or discussion. 'Ivan-Aleksandar' is certainly not an option in English. Best,  — Toдor Boжinov — 10:18, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

message: I checked this article for WP:URFA/2020 and question whether it meets the FA requirement to consistently cite high-quality reliable sources. Some of this article's sources look OK, others definitely not. I went ahead and removed citations to self-published websites and there are a lot of cleanup tags.
