[edit] Explanation of name choice

I see Doc glasgow has been asked why he moved this page to Haji Sultan. He may not be back for some time, so the following explains why I agree with him.

We tend to avoid titles with reigning monarchs, like Henry IV of England, because King would be redundant there, and it is often easier to link to him without it. But it is not policy to omit them; and for English and European nobility (John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, Charles, Duke of Orleans), we default to including them. In this case, Sultan is obviously ambiguous, and a disambiguation by title, like James Douglas, Lord of Douglas, is preferable to parentheses. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 17:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
