Talk:Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar

message: I changed the title from Mozzafar-al-Din Shah to Mozzafar al-Din Shah. The correct use of the hyphen is only between the definite article and the word that its attached to. I think it was just a small oversight of whoever made the page. I fixed all the redirects also. Cuñado  - Talk 18:12, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As a matter of fact, "Mozzafar" is incorrect; it must be "Mozaffar"; tashdid is on "f" and not on "z". Further, "ad-Din" is better than "od-Din" and both are better than "al-Din". In point of fact, even in Arabic "al-Din" is not pronounced "al-Din"; the letter "D" in "Din" is a so-called Shamsi (Solar) letter (to be contrasted with so-called Ghamari (Lunar) letters) whereby the "al" in "al-Din" renders the "D" in "Din" a moshadad "D" (i.e. a "D" with a tashdid), at the expense of "l" itself not being pronounced (in this connection, note the two "d"s in "ad-Din", one in "ad" and the other in "Din"). For details concerning Shamsi and Ghamari letters, consult this page. To summarise, the correct transliteration is Mozaffar ad-Din Shah. I must add that in Persian vernacular, one often pronounces the name as Mozaffar ed-Din Shah (note the "e"). --BF 03:53, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

message: This article is ridiculously obsessed with the cinema, which should play a tiny part in any assessment of the reign.  I am removing it from the initial summary, but either the section in the main text should be severely pruned or the rest of the article should be correspondingly expanded.

message: Hi. What is this doing in the article? What does it have to do with and why is it here without an explanation? It is almost entirely meaningless as it is currently... Stevenmitchell (talk) 01:17, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
