Name

The mother of Suleyman is usually known as "Hafsa Sultan", without the "Ayşe" part. I will move the article's name if there is no opposition.--Phso2 (talk) 19:33, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

To editor Phso2: See A'isha (name) for more on the name, "Ayşe".  OUR Wikipedia (not "mine")! Paine  02:54, 12 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
To editor Paine Ellsworth:Yes, very well, but...has this something related to the current problem of the article's title? Or is this just for information?--Phso2 (talk) 06:49, 12 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
It was just an FYI, Phso2, in case you hadn't seen it yet. I stumbled across the page while I was researching the "current problem".  OUR Wikipedia (not "mine")! Paine  14:48, 12 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Not moved. The target page might be better off as a disambiguation page as suggested by the proposer, so a new multi-move request should be opened. Suggested might be something like:

Then Hafsa Sultan can be converted into a disambiguation page as suggested. Several of its backlinks will then need to be disambiguated. In order to ensure that these page moves are not controversial, a bot will place an appropriate notice at Talk:Hafsa Sultan. To get a wider consensus it is suggested that all of the involved WikiProjects be notified on their talk pages, as well.

Ayşe Hafsa SultanHafsa Sultan – Common name, found in each and every reliable source on the subject and panels on Istanbul monuments. The previous name's origin is obscure but is perhaps an OR from personal websites. Phso2 (talk) 19:22, 27 May 2016 (UTC) --Relisted. RGloucester 17:44, 4 June 2016 (UTC) --Relisting.

– Common name for Selim I's consort and mother of Suleyman I is simply "Hafsa Sultan"; it is found in each and every reliable source on the subject and panels on Istanbul monuments. The previous name's origin is obscure, perhaps an OR from personal websites or a confusion with Ayşe Hatun (wife of Selim I). Phso2 (talk) 14:07, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Origin not disputed

edit

It's a bit silly to say her origin is disputed, and then to go on to say that only tourist guidebooks and popular histories say she was the daughter of a Crimean Khan. This is not her origin being disputed, this is the myth of her Crimean origins not having died out yet. I'm rephrasing the sentence. Chamboz (talk) 15:17, 11 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

The origin is disputed. It could be a myth but there is no concrete evidence to suggest she was a Christian. Both sides need to presented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C5:8405:FA00:6D25:845D:52EB:1EE1 (talk) 19:38, 27 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
As far as I have seen, there's an academic consensus that she wasn't the daughter of the Crimean Khan. Specialists on this topic, like Leslie Peirce and Alan Fisher, are very clear about this. All the secondary sources you cited were by non-specialists, like Reşat Kasaba, who is an expert on the Ottoman Empire in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and Brian Glyn Williams, who has apparently written on the Crimeans but again with a focus on the modern age. If you can cite anyone who actually specializes on the period in question and has done research in that area in the way that Fisher and Peirce do, by all means I'd be happy to see it. Chamboz (talk) 19:48, 27 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
Chamboz, I highly respect Peirce's work; my intention is only to remove the bias tone of "certainty" when there clearly is uncertainty with regards to the Harem.
This is not Peirce's theory. This appears to be Uluçay's theory, based on waqf documents and inscriptions. The Crimean theory is of Western origin and is not based on documentary evidences; as Chamboz writes, it simply has not died out yet, because it is older and more appealing (Crimean princess vs obscure slave), but there doesn't seem to exist a real controversy (ie a scholarly debate where evidences are brought forth and discussed).--Phso2 (talk) 21:20, 27 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hafsa Sultan (wife of Selim I)Hafsa Sultan – This page was moved to its current title to disambiguate between Selim I's wife and his daughter. However, the article about Selim's daughter has been deleted and does not exist anymore, and it turns out that the daughter's name has been recorded as Hafize not Hafsa in sources; thus this attempt for disambiguation was unnecessary in the first place, as Hafize and Hafsa are totally different names.
