thread_title:  Suggest merge with [[Asyut Governorate]] 

message: Both articles about the same city Assyut in Egypt
:Um, absolutly not. Asyut is an ancient egyptian site, even though it shares its name with a modern site. It would be incorrect to merge this with another page concerning data almost 5000 years removed, especially because there is no continuity of culture. The governates are their own set of pages, but no ancient egypt related page should have the name "Governate" anywhere on it. Thanatosimii 03:32, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair enough, but as it stands now both articles discuss the same location in ambiguous ways. Asyut Governorate describes the modern region as directly related to the ancient site: "In the hellenic era of Ancient Egypt, Asyut was known as Lycopolis," while Asyut mentions Nasser and Ahmed Lutfi Al Sayed as being from the city. So if the articles are distinct, which is ancient and which is modern? Jlittlet 21:45, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggest merge with [[Asyut Governorate]] 

message: The article about Asyut Governorate should be cleaned up by removing irrelevant information and data, or moving the information about Asyut city to the article of Asyut.
Both articles should stay separate, as the case for all the other Egyptian governorates holding the names of their largest city.

message: Nasser was born in Alexandria, so what does it mean " people from Asyut".

thread_title:  Nasser 

message: It has been suggested (though not by me) that Assuit be merged to Asyut. I oppose such a merger, on the grounds that Assuit describes a type of cloth named for the region, not the region itself. I have no objection to moving Assuit to Tulle bi telli, which is a redirect to Assuit. Cnilep (talk) 20:25, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, a name change makes sense to me.  If Tulle bi telli is too obscure, then maybe call the article about the cloth "Asyut (textile)".  I hadn't fully appreciated the distinction between the articles, but it still seems strange to have both names being the name of the region, but spelled differently.  Is the transliterated spelling really different for both? 99of9 (talk) 23:14, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Why is this page spelled Asyut but otherwise as in Assiut Barrage? Is there an established precedent in the English language aside from sheer romanization from the Arabic?-- Deborahjay (talk) 12:01, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
