If in the main article on Atropatene the capital of the state is named as Gazaka, then why in the article on this town it is named Ganzak? It should be named Gazaka and the links should be to it from Ganzak (as its alternative name). And the name Gandzak has nothing to do, besides in the context that it was named as Gandzak by Armenian medieval authors who mentioned it as Atropatene Gandzak, because te name was similar (by the meaning - "gandz" for Persian "gazn" or Median "ganz") to Armenian name - Gandzak - of Gyandja. See Iranika article on Ganzak.--Zara-arush (talk) 02:30, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
