Kyrgyz doesn't have one single method of romanization. "Erkeshtam" would conform with BGN/PCGN romanization of place names (which is the only case in which there is a commonly accepted system for Kyrgyz), so you need to provide reliable sources. We can't just take your word for it. Sumanuil 01:18, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with your opinion, but "Erkeshtam" is a pronunciation, "Irkeshtam" is a word. LuciferAhriman (talk) 03:02, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As the one proposing the move, it's your job to provide sources. We still can't just take your word for it. Maybe this will help: [1]? Sumanuil 08:17, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
