Requested move 22 September 2022 edit

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Not moved + redirect added. The letters may not be renderable to some viewers. Per WP:USEENGLISH, "Names not originally in a Latin alphabet ... must be transliterated into characters generally intelligible to literate speakers of English." I will also proceed to boldly add a redirect from Elvin Cəfərquliyev to Elvin Cafarguliyev. (non-admin closure) Wikiexplorationandhelping (talk) 04:25, 29 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose per WP:USEENGLISH. The proposed title is not recognizable or pronounceable by most English speakers. I would not oppose a move back to the article's original title, Elvin Jafarguliyev, which appears to be the common English spelling. Station1 (talk) 05:25, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per Station1. The proposal is not an English Wikipedia user-friendly title. BD2412 T 06:41, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Support - we use 'native' alphabets for names all the time, and redirects exist for a reason. I note English-language sources like this and this use the proposed name. GiantSnowman 12:24, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom, most references probably use his native name.--Ortizesp (talk) 13:13, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
