[edit] Алыкул Осмонов

From WP:PNT, been there since January 2. Discussion from WP:PNT follows... Segv11 ^{(talk/contribs)} 02:37, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Kyrgyz. Has entries on the Kyrgyz and Russian Wikipedias.[1][2] — TheKMan^talk 18:58, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

The Russian entry says he's a Kyrgyz poet, dramaturgist and translator. I can't read Kyrgyz at all though. Solver 23:43, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Looks like a definite candidate for transwiki. Physchim62 (talk) 17:21, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, if not translated/ notability is implied, I think. Redirection will not serve useful purpose, as a page name in several scripts may have to be accommodated by way of redirections. --Bhadani 13:00, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. The Cyrillic transliterates to Alykul Osmonov, and it turns out we already have an article on him, so this has been changed to a redirect there. Although article titles should be in the Latin alphabet, it's OK and harmless to have a redirect in a non-Latin alphabet, although not common (see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English)). I'm closing this Afd, since it is for a Kirgiz-language article, and if desired any new Afd could be applied to the English-language article instead. Note, as a general rule, non-English articles don't go through Afd... either they get translated within a certain delay (after posting a "notenglish" notice) or they get speedied. -- Curps 05:14, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
