[edit] Let's use the correct Kurdish spelling, shall we?

The correct spelling for Duhok is Duhok. Never mind whatever the historical phonetic spelling was, if spelling is to be done correctly it needs to be standardized into the correct form. The Anglicized Kurdish alphabet should be used wherever possible. The Anglicized Kurdish from Arabic is atrocious and should be criminally wrong in most cases.

In regard to names, the spelling that a person uses is the correct one (no guessing, it must be confirmed!). Therefore, for example, Massoud Barzani and Nechirvan Barzani are the correct spellings.

Perhaps you should move the article then. --Golbez 21:09, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
