Talk:Abd al-Razzaq Samarqandi

Name
Just off the titles, we have ʿAbd-al-Razzāq Samarqandī, Abd al-Razzaq Samarqandi, Abd al-Razzaq al-Samarqandi, and Abdur Razzaq. Wilfred Schoff's Periplus gives Abd-ar-Razzak as a dated transcription. No one calls this guy "Abd-ur-Razzaq". I suppose it's an attempt to transcribe the supposed Persian pronunciation (?) but we should still follow  forms for the running text of the article and not go  own way. — Llywelyn II   23:24, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
