Anyone who is knowledgeable enough with the original language is invited to assist in adding the Persian script. For more information, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Persian). |
[edit] Spelling
Why do you name the city "Shahr-i Sokhta"? In Persian, it is called Shahre Sukhte and I don't see why it should be misspelled. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.227.136.175 (talk • contribs) .
- I'm not the one who chose the name, but surely it is actually written in the Persian alphabet in Persian? It would be nice to have a transcription of the name here in the original spelling, regardless of which English approximations are used. Shahr-i Sokhta does appear to be more common in a google search. —ptk✰fgs 15:23, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
