Talk:Rashemaar

Renaming
I would like to rename this article Rashemaar. The Rashemaar are the people native to Rashemen while the Rashemi are people of the same ethnic group who are subjugated in Thay. It makes more sense to use the term the people use to refer to themselves in their native land, rather than the one used to describe them while under rule in a foreign nation.

 * It seems like this was a 2e distinction that was lost in later editions. By the "newer refs trump old ones" view, it should remain Rashemi, since it is the more common term by the later editions. On the other hand, I am partial to greater flavor. Back to the original hand, I doubt that we would need a separate article for Rashemi and Rashemaar. Back to the other hand, a redirect from Rashemi to Rashemaar would fix any problems that I could forsee. I'd wait to get more feedback, but I am tentatively in favor of your suggestion. ~ Lhynard (talk) 16:15, 15 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Making one more call out before I go ahead with the change. It will be a simple renaming (w/redirect) and clarification of expanded usage of "Rashemaar" over the the less-specific "Rashemi". Ruf (talk) 15:29, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
