Talk:Kaymakli Underground City

Spelling of Kaymakli
The original title of the article was 'Kaymakli Underground City'. This was altered to "Kaymaklı Underground City". However, the letter   (Latin small letter dotless i; Unicode U+0131) does not exist in English. I have reverted it back to the commonly used English spelling.

This is English Wikipedia. We spell words, including foreign words*, using the English alphabet which is the basic Latin alphabet. But even more to the point: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia; and we spell foreign names and words the way that the majority of references written in English spell them. An ngrams search will immediately demonstrate the overwhelming preference for the spelling "Kaymakli" in English.

&#42; But what about names like La Coruña? The Latin alphabet has extensions for languages like Spanish, French, German, and others like Turkish that basically use the same Latin alphabet, but also use diacritics that are not native to English like accented vowels, or consonants with cedillas or tildes (see ISO-8859-1). English sources sometimes use these extended Latin letters in foreign names, and sometimes they don't; Wikipedia titles follow (or should follow) the consensus of English language sources. Turkish switched to using a modified form of the Latin alphabet in a spelling reform after 1928, but it still contains letters not in ISO 8859-1 including the dotless i, and several others. These Turkish extensions (see ISO 8859-9) are generally not used in English sources; in particular, they are not used in English sources to spell Kaymakli except when referring to the Turkish spelling.
