Talk:Kazan Federal University

message: I believe the first version should be used for the article title. The second should be used in the article on Myakzyum Salakhov, together with other versions of spelling. Here are my reasons:
* Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English), Wikipedia:Naming_conventions
* This is an English wiki. It's impossible to type Mäğzüm Säläxev on a standard keyboard
* Google knows nothing of Mäğzüm Säläxev except links to this article. On the other hand, Myakzyum Salakhov is quite common. You want people to actually find the article, right?
* I understand that Mäğzüm Säläxev is a proper Turkish spellling of the name, but as far as I know, Tatarstan officially uses Cyrillic spelling. Why should the Turkish spelling be used as primary when the official is Cyrillic?
* Take a look at Talk:Kiev for a similar dispute and what was decided.

thread_title: Regarding spelling of Myakzyum Salakhov vs. Mä&#287;züm Säläxev

message: Romanization of Tatar/Tatar Latin Alphabet is uses Turkish chapters. ä uses only in Tatar , not Turkish.
: That's fine. But keep in mind that this is an English wikipedia. It should use commonly used English names or an official English names. The common English spelling of Salakhov is Myakzyum Salakhov (search Google), the official English names according to his place of work is Myakzyum Salakhov. Thus the article title should be Myakzyum Salakhov. Gene s 06:19, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Redirects are fine. But the artcle title should be in English. All alternative spllings should go to the article itself. Gene s 06:19, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

message: Did Lenin graduate from Kazan State University as implied by the use of the word "alumnus" in the article, or did he just attend for a while?Aliotra (talk) 00:11, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The word is in fact broader -- the person needn't graduate to be considered an alumnus. Lenin did not graduate from Kazan University. The OED provides: "The nurseling or pupil of any school, university, or other seat of learning. Also, a graduate or former student (chiefly U.S., esp. in pl.)."

text: Thanks for that.  I've never received communications from the Alumni Society of a university which I've attended but from which I have not graduated, hence my confusion.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aliotra (talk • contribs) 18:22, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
