Talk:'Adud al-Dawla

message: Is the correct spelling "'Adud al-Daula", or "Adud al-Dowleh"? -- Mikeblas 23:25, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's an arabic name, so it should be 'Adud ad-Dawla or Daula (I would choose the first). Dowle(h) is a Persian version, but I wouldn't support the Persian version, since this name is not simply Arabic because of the words in it, but because this is an Arabic grammatical structure as well. --80.98.102.48 21:17, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I see that there is an edit-war going on about a translation of the subject's name, but there does not appear to be any discussion about this issue going on at the talkpage.  As a reminder to all editors, as soon as reverting starts, it is essential, per Wikipedia:Dispute resolution, to engage in discussion.  Don't just battle it out in edit summaries, but try to explain what you're doing, which will be a better way of trying to work through the conflict.  Thanks, --Elonka 18:54, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text:  Please keep comments focused on the content, and not on the contributor, and keep in mind that it takes two to edit-war.  What it looks like to me, a third-party observer, is that Bayrak was attempting to add sourced information, but other people were inexplicably reverting him, without themselves explaining why they were reverting. The burden is therefore on those who were reverting Bayrak, to explain why they were removing sourced information. --Elonka 20:11, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Xashiar brought it up here, i concured with him, I asked bayrak REPEATEDLY to come to talk, he declined... as he declines to do in every other article he's been involved with. There was an explanation right here on this talk page for days. I'm not clear why this seems "inexplicable" to you. His behavoir is becoming a problem, not people who ask him again and again to seek consensus, who clean up his awful grammar and english comprehension (i'll provide diffs if asked), revert phrases like "enlisted man" removed from military articles (with edit summaries like "the conscription are over"), revert links to "Persian Gulf War" sent to weird "Second Gulf War" disambiguation pages, spent hundreds of words explaining "Coptic Orthodox" and "Copt" are the same thing (to someone from kuwait, no less, who would have to live under a rock not to know this) just to prevent him from removing a bare reference to the fact that copts live in Kuwait, etc... This is not a two sides of the same coin situation. It just isn't.Bali ultimate (talk) 21:45, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Could you please point me to where there is a discussion about the source that Bayrak was using, or why other editors did not wish to add the translation "(arm [strength] of the state)" to the article? --Elonka 21:54, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

text:  He never came to talk, so it was impossible to address him directly. However, here's the relevant bit, from further up this talk page: "i reverted to the version that includes both persian name and the arabic. i personally think the arabic version does not exist. the reason being the part "khusraw".--Xashaiar (talk) 09:24, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
