I've recently begun working on some articles about
past prime ministers of
Iraq, to put a little historical perspective into the conflict. The problem I
have come across is that the names are transliterated in countless different
names in the texts I have and, as a result, in existing articles in
Wikipedia. It can get very confusing, especially with links.
Is there anyone else here with some background in Arabic, so that we can
develop some kind of standard transliteration system?
I tried to develop an arabic trancription standard for the German Wikipedia, see
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diskussion%3AListe_islamischer_Begriffe_in_Ara…
maybe it's of some use if someone wants to create an english one.
