Talk:Jurnal al-Khidiw

Spelling
Your spelling is missing an ⟨i⟩. خديوى is pronounced in Arabic and  in Turkish; the Persian origin خدیو is irrelevant here; which makes the current spelling incorrect for both languages. Either change the current title from Jurnal al-Khidi w  to ... wi  or ... ve . Alternatively, just change the title to the English translation. --Esperfulmo (talk) 22:04, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Also the first periodical in Turkish?
It seems that Jurnal al-Khidiw (1821–1822) was the first periodical published in the Turkish language, Al-Waqa'i' al-Misriyya (1828–ongoing) was the second one and the Ottoman Takvim-i Vekayi (1831–1922) was only the third. Is that correct? If yes, this fact should be mentioned in the article. — UnladenSwallow (talk) 21:53, 19 February 2023 (UTC)


 * There was apparently a publication called Curnalü'l-Irâk, in Turkish and Arabic in 1816. https://islamansiklopedisi.org.tr/takvim-i-vekayi

 * Thank you. The Arabic article on Journal Iraq states that it was printed lithographically (same as Jurnal al-Khidiw) and distributed only to high-ranking officials (same as Jurnal al-Khidiw). That makes Al-Waqa'i' al-Misriyya the first  newspaper in Arabic (and in Turkish) printed with movable type and in relatively large runs. — UnladenSwallow (talk) 20:45, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
