Name[edit]

@Kouhi: What is your problem exactly? If the name is Latin, delete it. Arabic script of Azerbaijani language is used in Iran. example Journals, magazines, newspapers, radio and television, University and Culture and Literature Foundation.--Samək^Talk 12:18, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's still not enough reason. This is a mountain located in Iranian Azarbaijan, it has nothing to do with with Azeri people or Azeri language, and the name of mountain is of Iranian origin, not of Azeri origin. Azeri spelling is useless for readers. -- Kouhi (talk) 12:37, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Kouhi: There is a mountain where Azerbaijani natives who live around it. Azeri spelling is useless for readers? Do you recognize this? The answer is not convincing, is most of defiance. for example write the name of the native and Latin in Sanandaj article, no problem? But for cities and regions of Azerbaijan is wrong.--Samək^Talk 15:46, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Spellings should be useful for readers. I already explained why Azeri spelling is irrelevant and useless here. It is irrelevant who live around the mountain. The mountain has no relation with "Azeri language". Mahmoud of Ghazni could be a good example here: You even can't add Turkish spelling to Mahmoud of Ghazni since this language is completely irrelevant to him even though he is of Turkic descent (another example is Persian spelling to Parthian Empire). Your sanandaj example is not an argument. I'm not responsible for every article in wiki, if there's something wrong with an article, you could fix it yourself, but thanks for mentioning that, I was almost forgetting Kurdish-related articles. -- Kouhi (talk) 16:00, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of living in the past Now to find out. Parthian? Now 21st Century and Turks live in North-west of Iran. They are entitled all cities and mountains and the sea and with their own pronunciations. you do not edit in Kurdish articles.....? I'll do--Samək^Talk 16:08, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These are all irrelevant. You should establish a connection between this mountain and "Azeri language", by citing some reliable sources (which is impossible since the name has no connection with this language). And your Parthian argument is irrelevant. In order to add a spelling to an article, there should be a connection between that language and the subject of the article. There's no connection between Azeri language and Sahand mountain, the same way there's no connection between Parthian Empire and New Persian language. -- Kouhi (talk) 16:13, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
