Talk:Firman of Karamanoğlu Mehmet Bey

Untitled
The firman of 13 May 1277 quoted in this article is suspect. The date is plausible, but the reference to “parliament” is anachronistic. Can we find a more authoritative source for the quote? Aramgar 13:14, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

I understand that in his capacity as the vezir to the pretender Jimri, Karamanoğlu Mehmet Bey instituted the use of the Turkish language in the chancellory; but this anachronistic quote must be sourced or removed. Aramgar (talk) 03:35, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Turkish Language???
how is it possible to use a language that majority cannot speak? It was not Turkish but Oguz(as the speakers name their language and nation) and until Mehmet II of ottomans brought some uighur translators from bukhara almost no one was able to speak Turkish, what today we call Chagatay Turkish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.100.176.216 (talk) 10:26, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Above remark is groundless. Oghuz is a branch of Turkic, just as Uighur. Mehmet bey did not impose a language. (By the way he was controlling only a small portion of Turkey and he didn't live long after his firman) People in Turkey was already speaking Turkish and his firman had nothing to do with the native language. He only tried to regulate the palace language which was Persian. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 07:47, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Title and text
The title of this article is about a person. But the content is about language. I think the title should be moved to more appropriate name or else the text should be rewritten. I'll try to reach the contributers. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 08:38, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
