Propose renaming and moving page to "Melid"

Since this is an archaeological site, it should be listed under its contemporary name (the usual rendering is Melid[1]).

I assume you mean 'historic' name? In any case, it has a modern name (and so presumably a modern settlement) and that name is used to identify the archaeological site (cf. links on page.) -LlywelynII (talk) 11:37, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Panoramic movie of site

Is located here. Not sure how (or whether legal) to include it on the page, though. -LlywelynII (talk) 11:37, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't. Having the real name instead of the turkish name helps a lot. having all these turkish names a gloss over the authentic ancient anatolian names greatly obscures the history.
