[edit] Kaykhusraw or Keyhüsrev
For several months now, there has been some debate as to which spelling of the sultan’s name is the most appropriate title for this article in English Wikipedia. The spelling current in English language academic literature is “Kaykhusraw.” Some Wikipedia editors prefer the Turkish spelling “Keyhüsrev,” which is understandable given the sultan’s role in Anatolian history and Turkish civilization. Still, “Kaykhusraw” is the form most familiar to readers of English, and Wikipedia Naming Conventions suggest that we use this form. Below is a list of credible English language sources. All use the spelling “Kaykhusraw.” The first two books in the list are the essential English language references for the history of the Seljuks of Rum.

The title of this article must remain Kaykhusraw III. The articles Kaykhusraw I and Kaykhusraw II are also affected by this information. Aramgar 03:03, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
