[edit] Can it be spelled Banjzak??

In the drive to make articles for every city in the world with more than 100.000 inhabitants, one Uzbek city called Banjzak was listed. I couldn't for the life of me find that city on any map, and the only google hit worth looking at was a UN population list which when I cross-ref checked was missing the city Jizzakh, but did have a city called Banjzak listed with the exact same 1999-population as Jizzakh is said to have in this article (126.400). So I concluded that the cities are the same, and that it's just some UN-worker who has got the name Джизак wrongly translated. But I've never even been to Uzbekistan, don't speak the language, never bought the t-shirt, and is exceptionally ignorant about Uzbekistan geography. So if anyone reading this knows that this is obviously wrong, that there is an Uzbek city called Banjzak (maybe called something else now), and that Jizzakh is a different city, then please fix my [[Banjzak] redirect, and accept my appology.
