Sayed Esmail Hosseini → Esmaeil Hosseini – Sayed/Seyed is just a title, not an actual part of the name. that's the correct name. Mohsen1248 (talk) 05:03, 2 November 2014 (UTC) Mohsen1248 (talk) 05:03, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * What source(s) do you have for this?  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 09:48, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * It's asking source for an obvious thing (Obvious for Iranian users though). Read the article Sayyid, I can give some examples like this one Ali Khamenei or Mohammad Khatami, they are all "Seyed/Sayed/Seyyed" but that's not in article names, there are countless examples like that, those are just two famous examples.

 * It's not obvious to anyone else though. You saying it is doesn't cut it.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 17:49, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * I doubt you even read what I wrote. Mohsen1248 (talk) 18:30, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * So you don't have anything to back up your disruptive page moves? Thought not.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 19:17, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * The implication is that WP:HONORIFIC applies here. Dekimasu よ! 19:18, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Should the new name be Esmail Hosseini? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:44, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
 * That's also possible, but Esmaeil is more common transliteration for the Persian name of "اسماعیل" which is his name. Mohsen1248 (talk) 00:52, 9 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Support per nominator (or delete the article, since it fails WP:GNG). The sourcing for the article is very thin, and the nominator seems to know of what they speak. —BarrelProof (talk) 01:43, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
