seljuks and the middle ages
empowering of seljuks and mongols ae a mere example of the ararchism existed in the middle ages in the middle east, seljuks werent a real dynasty, peoples lives did not change by seljuks and they ddidn t offer anything
Spelling
I'm sorry if this has already been debated, but why is this article entitled "Seljuq" when "Seljuk" is much more established? I got 1,060,000 g-hits for "Seljuk" and 272,000 for "Seljuq," but I would be surprised if the division isn't more extreme in the printed word. The Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster both list "Seljuk" and not "Seljuq." All the books I have read on them (which do tend to be older) use "Seljuk" or even "Seljouk." "Seljuk" is more established in English and is the only thing that looks right to me, but if authenticity is an issue shouldn't we spell it seljukh? I don't think they themselves pronounced qaf propperly.
Use of Iran not Persia
User:Ehsan01 has decided to change Persia to Iran along with linking it to Iran. This is not only POV editing, but anachronistic since the Islamic Republic of Iran did not exist at that time! Did Iran exist in 1037? --Kansas Bear (talk) 18:50, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- The name Iran exists since Sasanian Empire, or even older as an ethnic identity, it's not related to that so-called Islamic Republic, it's the native and old name of Iran/Persia. See Iran (word) and Name of Iran. But we can't use Iran instead of Persia for the Seljuq era. Because all major sources used "Persia" as the official name until 1935 (see two mentioned articles). Using Iran is anachronism (for this article and other similar articles). --Zyma (talk) 22:08, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- After waiting one week and having no response from user:Ehsan01, I will change it back to Persia. --Kansas Bear (talk) 03:06, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
No , I think it's the time to use Iran in the article ,because The names Iran and Persia are often used interchangeably to mean the same country. Iran is the legal name. Persia, was an ancient kingdom within Iran. Iran came to be known as Persia in the West thanks to classical Greek authors during whose time Persia was the dominant kingdom in Iran.Persia is a synoumy to Iran.
as we know Iranians has called their country Iran from at least from 300 A.C so there is no need to call Iran , Persia in this article because it's about a medieval dynasty.--Javaddeniro (talk) 15:11, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
Seljuk dynasty , A Turkic Persianate Dynasty
According to these references Seljuks were Turku-Persia(Iranian).and this has to be mentioned in the opening section of this article
- "Aḥmad of Niǧde's al-Walad al-Shafīq and the Seljuk Past", A. C. S. Peacock, Anatolian Studies, Vol. 54, (2004), 97; "With the growth of Seljuk power in Rum, a more highly developed Muslim cultural life, based on the Persianate culture of the Great Seljuk court, was able to take root in Anatolia."
Meisami, Julie Scott, Persian Historiography to the End of the Twelfth Century, (Edinburgh University Press, 1999), 143; "Nizam al-Mulk also attempted to organise the Saljuq administration according to the Persianate Ghaznavid model..." Encyclopaedia Iranica, "Šahrbānu", Online Edition: "... here one might bear in mind that non-Persian dynasties such as the Ghaznavids, Saljuqs and Ilkhanids were rapidly to adopt the Persian language and have their origins traced back to the ancient kings of Persia rather than to Turkmen heroes or Muslim saints ..."

Shaw; Published by University of California Press, 2003, ISBN 0520233352, ISBN 9780520233355; p. 5. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Javaddeniro (talk • contribs) 00:16, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
- No. The Seljuq dynasty was Turkic/Turkish as shown by these sources;
- "Turkish dynasty, also spelled Seljuk, ruling military family of the Oğuz (Ghuzz) Turkic tribes that invaded southwestern Asia in the 11th century and eventually founded an empire...." Encyclopedia Britannica
- "The Turkish groups of the greatest import in the history of Europe and W Asia were, however, the Seljuks and the Osmanli or Ottoman Turks, both members of the Oghuz confederations." Encyclopedia Columbia
- Saljuqs, Andrew Peacock, Encyclopaedia Iranica, (May 25, 2010). "A dynasty of Turkish origin that ruled much of Anatolia".Encyclopedia Iranica.
- Turco-Persian is a culture as clearly stated by the sources that are being miscontrued to represent an ethnicity!
- "Aḥmad of Niǧde's al-Walad al-Shafīq and the Seljuk Past, A. C. S. Peacock, Anatolian Studies, Vol. 54, (2004), 97; "'With the growth of Seljuk power in Rum, a more highly developed Muslim cultural life, based on the Persianate culture of the Great Seljuk court..."
- Encyclopaedia Iranica, "Šahrbānu, "here one might bear in mind that non-Persian dynasties such as the Ghaznavids, Saljuqs and Ilkhanids..", this clearly states the Saljuqs were non-Persian!!!
- Also, check out Turko-Persian tradition,"The composite Turko-Persian tradition refers to a distinctive culture that arose in the 9th and 10th centuries (AD) in Khorasan and Transoxiana (present-day, Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, minor parts of Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan)."
- As I said previously, Turko-Persian is a culture not an ethnicity. --Kansas Bear (talk) 00:25, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
No , Seljuk dynasty was a turkic group that rapidly adopted Persian language , and culture and had been mixed with persian nobles by marriages.You can say Tughrul Was of turkic origin 100 percent , But the house of seljuk is not all Tughrul and in the next generations they were mixed with Persian Iranian nobel families.also they fully adopted Persian language and culture.Identity of people is recognized by their culture and language not by the name of their grand grand father Sir so the later generations of Seljuk Dynasty who were speaking by persian language , had Persian culture and iranian mothers were At least Turko-Persian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Javaddeniro (talk • contribs) 00:48, 31 December 2015 (UTC) --Javaddeniro (talk) 01:14, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
- And the sources you have copied from the Seljuk Empire relate to culture, which means your assertion of "Turko-Persian" "ethnicity" is original research. Original research is not allowed on Misplaced Pages. --Kansas Bear (talk) 02:00, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
well , I think you do not like words like Persian or Persianate , we have seen this in talk page of the Seljuk empire before.As I have suggested before here Tughrul was from Turkic ethnicity but in the later generations as I have referenced the house of Seljuk was Persianized by language and culture.I think it is you're self made opinion that Ethnicity is something different from language and culture as I've never seen some ideas like this somewhere else previously and I think this is an original research that you can present it in Harvard or somewhere else not my Idea about changing the identity of seljuks from turkish to Turko-Persian later that has been suggested in different researches as I tell you again:
non-Persian dynasties such as the Ghaznavids, Saljuqs and Ilkhanids were rapidly to adopt the Persian language and have their origins traced back to the ancient kings of Persia rather than to Turkmen heroes or Muslim saints here you just cut the first part of the text and ignore the second part that suggests the house of Seljuk was Persianized. or here established the Persianized sultanate of the Seljuk or here you see obviously Persianate ethnicity and the Persianization process in the house of seljuk: enewed the Seljuk attempt to found a great Turko-Persian empire in eastern Iran." "It is to be noted that the Seljuks, those Turkomans who became sultans of Persia, did not Turkify Persia-no doubt because they did not wish to do so. On the contrary, it was they who voluntarily became Persians you see in the bold part of the text .--Javaddeniro (talk) 03:01, 31 December 2015 (UTC) it is now almost a week that I have made the upper statement about the Seljuk house.Kansas bear has made an original research that is forbidden in wikipedia.he says ethnicity is different from the language and the culture , but as we clearly know etnicity is based on the culture and the language, for example the ethnicity definition in english wikipedi:
