Ağdaş, AzerbaijanAgdash, Azerbaijan – Move to "Agdash, Azerbaijan" per WP:UE/WP:COMMONNAME/WP:ENGLISH. Proof of anglicized name being the common name:

Results from Google News: Agdash: 399 Ağdaş: 3

Results from Google Scholar: Agdash: 202 Ağdaş: 134

Individual reliable sources referring to the city as Agdash: World Health Organization, RFE/RL, Vestnik Kavkaza.

This is the same name but an anglicized version. Unlike other small villages, this is a fairly large town, which has made a lot of appearances in English-language media, in most of which, "Agdash" has been used much more, establishing its WP:COMMONNAME. I'd also like to ask the closing admin to give more attention to the arguments being made rather than the vote counts, as there are people who go over each RM and repeat unrelated policies as an "Oppose" argument. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 06:09, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
