[edit] Title

I have a problem with changing the title of this article to Kaškaval. This is the English Wikipedia, and we do not have the "š" letter in our alphabet; this sound is written as "sh." Furthermore, the article only refers to Bulgaria and Macedonia, both of which use the Cyrillic alphabet, therefore they don't spell it like this either. I assume it is spelled like this in Serbian and/or other Slavic languages that use the Latin alphabet. I think this article (an redirects) need to be reverted; alternatively, this article should be expanded to reflect usages of this word in other countries where this is the correct spelling.

Dear 83.143.253.63, I've reverted your change Sirene->Sirenje. I don't know where Sirenje is considered the correct spelling, but since there is a Sirene page already out there, I have changed it back to my spelling. If you are sure your way is correct, make sure to pipe the link to Sirene or create a re-direction page. --Froese 18:34, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi. The original word in Кашкавал, in Bulgarian. It is transcribed in latin as Kashkaval - there is no letter š neither in English nor Bulgaria. Why the article is moved to Kaškaval ? --Petar Petrov 13:49, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

I think the transliteration of 'ш' to 'š' is Serbo-Croation. But then again, the 'в' is also officially transcribed as 'w' sometimes. Anyway, If I had to do it, I would spell it "kashkaval". Perhaps a few redirects are in place. --CompuChip 15:48, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
OK, then it's settled! We will move this article to Kashkaval, and create a re-direct page here (Kaškaval.) Anyone opposed speak now or forever hold you peace. ;-) Froese 23:49, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
