– The all Azerbaijani city names should be moved to English version as it is official versions. Moreover, there is more results in English version of it and some Azerbaijani letters is unknown to readers, which will cause problems in reading the article such as "Saatlı".

 * Şabran → Shabran
 * Saatlı (city) → Saatly
 * Qobustan (town) → Gobustan (town)


 * Comment. Shabran and Saatly redirect to the districts, not the towns. Dekimasu よ! 11:27, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose; English readers can read the Latin and Turkic alphabets. Rather than single-handedly making undiscussed bulk moves that affect the stable titling of an entire article corpus, note that recent English books do use Turkic diacritics for Azerbaijani the same as en.wp historically has done for all Turkic geo articles: [ http://www.amazon.com/Lonely-Planet-Georgia-Armenia-Azerbaijan/dp/174179403X/ Lonely Planet Georgia, Armenia & Azerbaijan uses Turkic diacritics] [ http://www.amazon.com/Azerbaijan-Excursions-Georgia-Mark-Elliott/dp/190586423X/ Azerbaijan Excursions Guide uses Turkic script] etc. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:46, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

 * You can't apply certain criteria to some cities, while other cities like Baku in English language. It either have to be applied to all, or to none.--Xoncha (talk) 20:03, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes we can, and do, this is exactly what English does and en.wp does for every other country. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:07, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
