It is better to use Shah instead of Emir in this article as well as all other Durrani emperors. --Vssun (talk) 09:09, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Durrani??

Is there a ref where he has been called 'Shah Shuja Durrani'? All the historians, the ones I have read at least like Dalrymple's return of a king, Mohan Lal's Biography of Dost Mohammad, Faiz Muhammed's Siraj Ul Tawarikh or Mirza Aata who is heavily quoted by Dalrymple, have nowhere called him 'Shah Shuja Durrani' he has always been called either Shah Shuja or his full name Shah Shuja Al Moolk. I suggest changing the name to 'Shah Shuja' or 'Shah Shuja Al Moolk' and yes, I know he was Sadozai (Durrani). Thanks Hazara Birar ^(Talk)
