Hassan

[edit]

Hi there! I had to undo some of your changes to Hassan/Khasan. Places in Russia called "Khasan" are never referred to as "Hassan" in English, so I had to move them back. Even with the alternative spellings of the same name, it is quite common to have separate dabs for different spellings. There is only use in combining them when they are very short and 100% interchangeable. Cheers, and welcome to Wikipedia! :)—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 16, 2011; 18:22 (UTC)

Well, if it were Russian Wikipedia, you'd have a point :) In English Wikipedia, places in Russia called "Хасан" are romanized as "Khasan", and these names have completely different etymology from the rest of Has(s)ans on another dab, so a separate dab is doubly warranted.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); August 16, 2011; 18:29 (UTC)
