[edit] Merging

The merge of Merinid dynasty and Marinid isn't controversial. No doubt we can agree on this. But which should be the name used for the final article? Donama 05:29, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Marinid or Merinid?

Which should be the name used in the English wikipedia, taking into account that there many alternate spellings in the other languages (see Marinid article for the other language links). Please add your support or oppose below.

[edit] Merge into Marinid, "Marinids" or "Marinid dynasty"

• Support because this is the name Encyclopaedia Brittanica use and I found it more often in my English-based research (note what happens in a google fight of Marinid vs Merenid) Donama 05:29, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
• Support in Marinid. I don't speak Arabic, but I believe "A" is stronger than "E" in this language. But since I don't speak English either, I may be wrong, when you translate Arabic into English. But A are always better than E... Lapaz 01:23, 27 April 2006 (UTC) I'll also add that we should'nt merge a "tribe" (see Marinid) in a "dynasty"; the reverse is all right though, since the dynasty supposedly comes from the tribe.

[edit] Merge into "Merinid", "Merinids" or Merinid dynasty

[edit] After merge

Merged into Marinid. On advice of myself, User:Jmabel, User:Lapaz and User:Drini.

But I have put some of the info I'm not 100% is merged in HTML comments at the bottom in case I missed something. — Донама 05:49, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
