::What do you mean? That is a transliteration of its Russian name and that is how it's spelled Чарьябаг ''Char'yabag'' not Чарджабаг ''Chardzhabag'' as you suggest.

In that case, the official transliteration is wrong, since that's not how it would be pronounced in English, it should be a soft G sound, not a Y sound, since it most likely comes from the words charge, or charger. | :::In that case, the official transliteration is wrong, since that's not how it would be pronounced in English, it should be a soft G sound, not a Y sound, since it most likely comes from the words charge, or charger. | ||
Since Russian doesn't have its own translation of names, the transliteration should be as close as possible to the language they're taking it from, but this instance seems to be incorrect.[[User:Magentafeelings|Magentafeelings]] ([[User talk:Magentafeelings|talk]]) 17:30, 11 July 2016 (UTC) | :::Since Russian doesn't have its own translation of names, the transliteration should be as close as possible to the language they're taking it from, but this instance seems to be incorrect.[[User:Magentafeelings|Magentafeelings]] ([[User talk:Magentafeelings|talk]]) 17:30, 11 July 2016 (UTC) | ||
::::What on earth are you talking about? We will use the official translation as stated on the Russian website, period. Now if you have any problem on how they transcribed the English name to the Cyrillic alphabet then please take that up with them. And if you think that the Russian name may come from the English name and have something more added to it then just transcription, you are more then welcome to tell us what that might be. But please don't come here and tell us that we should make up our own names when there are official ones to use. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 03:12, 12 July 2016 (UTC) | |||
