Arabic names

[edit]

For some reason the arabic names in Wikipedia often are not on the form I find in Arabic sources. The vowels are wrong. For example: A. S. Tritton "Teach yourself Arabic" says that elbow is "mirfaqun", while here it is "marfiq(un)". Why? Is it that Arabic dialects differ so, or that there are so many alternate forms in Arabic, or ... ??

Map suxx

[edit]

Those darned OR visualisations again!! So the Medusa head is in fact the right foot? What about history and mythology? Said: Rursus 14:08, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like that bad visualisation comes from here! Must be fixed. Said: Rursus 20:54, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The red circle on the map obviously isn't circling Mirfak, but I don't know how to change that.
