A large portion of population are Azerbaijani Turks. Azerbaijani Turkish should be added to the list of main languages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.124.111 (talk) 19:58, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

– Proposing downcasing for consistency with article titles for provinces in other countries, as recently done for Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. See recent discussions at Talk:An Giang Province#Requested move 7 November 2021, Talk:Amnat Charoen Province#Requested move 2 December 2021, Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/China- and Chinese-related articles#Chinese placenames, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Southeast Asia#Downcasing "Province". The first 31 are current provinces and the last four are historical provinces. Please note that the last two are currently titled a bit differently from the others. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:56, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Support It is not necessary to be consistent with other countries since the considerations for each country might vary. However, there is nonetheless a good case to be made for the proposed moves. I have taken a random sample of the subject articles: Bushehr Province, Kermanshah Province, Mazandaran Province, Semnan Province and Bahrain Province (Ngrams not found: Bahrain Province). The n-gram data consistently shows that the sample article titles do not meet the threshold per MOS:CAPS to cap "province". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cinderella157 (talk • contribs) 01:00, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
