After a lot of researches I'm in favor of moving az to azj.
I oppose this. That would break many existing links. We also did not move Bokmål from no to nb.
In the bibliographical world, az is used primarily for the national language of the state of Azerbaijan. The overwhelming majority of text in any Azeri language is in Northern Azeri, whether in Cyrillic or in Latin. Southern Azeri does not have the same place in the educational system of Iran, for instance. There is much less text in it.
We should add azb and move Arabic-script articles there and leave az alone.
I have fundamental opposition to moving az to azj.
