birthplace

[edit]

His birthplace is given as Theodosiopolis, which redirects to the ancient city of Arpos. Does anyone know where he was actually born, and what that place is called today? Jd2718 22:01, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Theodosiopolis is a name of Apros (corrected!) in Thrace, but much more commonly, it refers to modern Erzurum, which is what I changed the redirect to. --Macrakis 06:02, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

His birthplace is Tosya. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Geler7167 (talkcontribs) 14:16, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vafiadis or Vafeiadis?

[edit]

Vafiadis or Vafeiadis?

One of the sources, namely Britannica, has yet another version, Vafiades. Technically they are all correct as English renderings of the Greek pronunciation, but the correct transliteration is Vafeiadis. For the sake of consisitency one commonly used form should be used.

In this case, I will turn them all to Vafeiadis and add the two other spellings in the lead. --Greece666 (talk) 14:21, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
