-  name: Pashto Standardized Transliteration System for Personal Names (2011)
-  creation_date: 2011
-  confirmation_date: 2011-06
-  description: |
-    Pashto is a language characterized by its variability. The
-    challenges of reaching a universally acceptable
-    transliteration standard for personal names are posed both
-    by the dialect spread trending roughly from the southwest
-    to the northeast parts of its geographic area, and also by
-    the competing influences of Dari and Urdu. Given the lack
-    of any dominant standard on some points, it has been
-    considered necessary to define a certain degree of
-    flexibility within this standardization system in order to
-    enable it to capture the variability of the language it
-    seeks to reflect. A great effort has also been made to
-    research and reflect common usage in the Pashto- speaking
-    areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan, and to define rules
-    which capture these trends to the best extent possible.
-    However, a respect for the norms of usage has also been
-    balanced with the need for consistency and intelligibility.
-    Therefore, there are cases where a less common spelling
-    will be the preferred usage under the guidance of this
-    system. Lastly, specific names that cannot be incorporated
-    gracefully into the rules described below are included with
-    case-by-case preferred spellings in a list near the end of
-    this document.
-
-  notes:
-    # Special rules: Consonants
-    - Pashto letter ge (‫ږ‬) The two common renderings for this
-      letter are 'zh' and 'g.' 1 The preferred option will be
-      'zh' (consistent with the choice of southern 'sh' for ‫)ښ‬.
-      However, when referring to communities that consistently
-      render the name with a 'g' as opposed to a 'zh,' then 'g'
-      will be the preferred option. In these cases, the inclusion
-      of a variant spelling with 'zh' is strongly encouraged.
-
-    - Double consonants Double consonants represented by the
-      tashdid (shaddah) are shown in most cases regardless of
-      whether they are clearly enunciated in speech. Examples
-      Muhammad Hassan, Izzatullah. However, consonants
-      represented by digraphs are not doubled. Example Mubashir (
-      not Mubashshir). Special care should be taken when
-      possible to discriminate between doubled and
-      non-doubled letters in names that are otherwise
-      indistinguishable in their transliterated forms
-      Hasan (حسن (vs. Hassan (حسان(
-
-    - Digraphs No distinction is made between digraphs such as 'sh'
-      and single contiguous letters such as 's' followed by 'h.'
-
-    # Special rules: Vowels
-    - Short vowels zair and pesh The preferred options for the
-      short vowels represented by the zair and pesh will be 'i'
-      and 'u.' However, in cases where there is a mixed Dari and
-      Pashto environment, then the use of 'e' and 'o' is accepted
-      in consideration of Dari norms.
-
-    - Long/short vowels Long and short vowels are not
-      distinguished in the system (with the exception of
-      certain spellings driven by Dari influence as discussed
-      above). In this and other systems, the borrowed
-      Arabic name Salim could represent two distinct names, one
-      with a long /a/ (Saalim - ‫)سالم and one with a
-      long /i/ (Saliim - ‫)سلیم‬. This is known as a collision.
-      This and many other prevailing standardization
-      systems do not distinguish between these types of
-      collisions. However, in cases like these, it is
-      recommended that a vigorous effort be made to include
-      variant spellings in order to eliminate ambiguity
-      as to which name is intended, as in the following examples
-      Hamid (var. Hameed) – ‫حمید‬
-      Hamid (var. Hamed) – ‫حامد‬
-
-    - Izafat The linking vowel of Persian origin known as the
-      izafat will be written with a hyphen and then 'e'
-      and then a following space. Example Koh-e Nur ("mountain
-      of light"). There will be no special
-      accommodation for when the initial word ends in a vowel.
-
-    # Special rules: Arabic
-    - The Arabic article al ( ‫ال‬ ) The Arabic article will be
-      written with a lowercase 'a' and followed by a hyphen, with
-      the obvious exception that an uppercase 'a' should be used
-      where required by English orthographic conventions, e.g.,
-      at the beginning of a sentence. Example Karim al-Afghani
-
-    - Genitive constructions Multi-part Arabic names that follow
-      the Arabic genitive construction will be written with a
-      lowercase ul joined to the last part of the name by a
-      hyphen. Arabic sun letter assimilation generally will not
-      be shown.
-    # Genitive construction exceptions
-    - In deference to widespread usage, the name Abd will be
-      combined with the genitive article ul,
-      and the rest of the name will be written separately (
-      specifically, one of the ninety-nine
-      "names of God"). Examples Abdul Haq, Abdul Rahman
-    - Names incorporating "--ullah" will be written as a single
-      unit. Examples Abdullah, Rahmatullah
-    - Names incorporating "--din" will be written as a single
-      unit with sun letter assimilation
-      shown, causing ul to change to ud. This type of name is the
-      only case in which sun letter assimilation will be shown.
-      Examples Jamaluddin, Shamsuddin
-    - Note, no effort will be made to force names into the
-      genitive construction if they are not
-      linked by the article. For example, both names Fazl ul-
-      Rahman and Fazl Rahman would be
-      acceptable, depending on whether the article was included
-      in the individual's name.
-
-    - Consonant clusters Traditional Arabic names ending in a
-      final consonant cluster will be spelled with the
-      consonant cluster intact. Although most native Pashto
-      speakers will break up the cluster in conversational
-      speech, general usage in the written transliteration of
-      names still favors the preservation of the consonant
-      cluster in print.
-      This type of name should not be confused with Arabic names whose orthography includes a zabar (short
-      'a' vowel) prior to the final consonant. -- NOT DONE
-
-    # Special rules: Multiple-part Pashto names
-    - TODO
-
-    # Special rules: Glides versus consonants
-    - The unwritten phonetic "glides," also known as semi-
-      consonants (sounding similar to /y/ and /w/), will
-      generally not be shown between two vowels.
-      Examples Rauf, Said (سعيد)
-
-    - Care should be taken to distinguish the above rule from
-      cases in which wao or ya are a written part of the name and
-      function as true consonants, including cases where they are
-      doubled. Examples Fayiz ( ‫فایز‬ ), Fayyaz ( ‫فیّاض‬ )
-
-    - A common form where ya will be shown in its role as a
-      consonant is with the Arabic nisba (suffix showing origin,
-      relation, etc.) appended to names that end in a vowel.
-      Examples Ziayi, Shafiyi, Mirzayi, Paktiayi
-
-    # Specific rules: Exceptions
-    - TODO
-      In spite of best intentions, the unbending application of
-      rules in any transliteration system is likely to produce
-      some forms that fly in the face of accepted use. Therefore,
-      the following names will be spelled as follows, in spite of
-      minor variance with the rules described above.
-      Aurangzeb (not Awrangzeb)
-      Eid (not Id)
-      Faizad (not Faizzad)
-      Javed (not Jawed) 2
-      Parvez (not Parwez)
-      Qureshi (not Quraishi)
-      Saad (not Sad)
-      Sherpao (not Sherpaw)
-
-    - The following names do not constitute exceptions to the
-      rules of this standard, but they are names that pose
-      significant challenges to standardization and are therefore
-      listed here to ensure consensus
-      Bahadur (not Bahadar, Bahader)
-      Feroz (not Firoz, Fairuz, etc.)
-      Firdaws (not Firdos)
-      Husain (not Hussain)
-      Isfandyar (not Asfandyar)
-      Ismail (not Ismael)
-      Khushhal (not Khushal)
-      Niamat (not Nimat)
-      Numan (not Nauman)
-      Raza (not Reza)
-      Sherzad (not Shirzad)
-      Tor Jan (not Tur Jan)
-      Uwais (not Awais)
-
-    # Special rules: Titles
-    - We treat the spelling of commonly used titles differently
-      from the handling of names, given that titles are subject
-      to norms of English as they are accepted into the English
-      language. Though not specifically covered by the scope of
-      this transliteration standard, the following spellings are
-      recommended for the sake of consistency
-      Akhund
-      Amir
-      Commander (not Commandan)
-      Hafiz
-      Haji
-      Mawlana
-      Mawlawi

-  description: |
-    This system is the Intelligence Community standard for the transliteration of Tatar person names
-    that will be applied to all final written reports and products for IC consumers. It is not intended
-    to eliminate variations of a name that can contribute forensic information. Rather, it is to provide
-    an IC standard Romanized (English) transliteration from Tatar that can then be linked to forensic
-    information in ways that will help identify the referent of the name.
-
-    In cases where an individual’s name has already been transliterated in a variant spelling, the IC
-    Standard spelling should appear first, followed by the variant spelling(s) in parentheses at the
-    first usage. In addition, if the original Cyrillic-script spelling is known, that spelling should
-    also appear in parentheses following the name, if possible, following best practices of the
-    issuing organization and taking into consideration information system capabilities. For example:
-    Rustam Abdrashitov (also seen as Rustem Abdrashitov, Рустам Абдрашитов). This convention is
-    designed to ensure that vital forensic information is not lost.
-
-    For names of persons who are known to not be part of the Tatar-speaking community, use the
-    relevant IC transliteration standard for names from that language (e.g., Yitzhak). A translator’s
-    note may be used to clarify the known origin of the person. Spell names of individuals from
-    languages that are written in Roman letters as they are spelled in those languages (e.g.,
-    George Clooney, Jorge Garcia, Georges Pompidou).
-
-    In the case of active senior government officials in the on-line CIA World Factbook and the on-
-    line directory of Chiefs of State and Cabinet Members of Foreign Governments, the spellings given
-    in these on-line reference works should be used in place of the IC Standard. For any individual
-    who has at one time been listed in the Factbook or Chiefs of State directory but who no longer
-    appears in those resources (i.e. is no longer a government official), the IC Standard spelling
-    should appear first, with the spelling, if known, as it previously appeared in those resources
-    listed within parentheses at the first usage.
-
-    The primary goal is to produce a consistent Romanized transcription of names that is specifically
-    readable to the English-speaking non-specialist. The system uses the 26 letters of the standard
-    (English) Roman alphabet. Some ambiguities in the Romanized form will occur without the use of
-    diacritics. However, within the context of a report, where additional information about the
-    individual is provided, the referent will be clearly identified. This system will be used in
-    conjunction with on-line tools, name dictionaries, and lists containing conventional spellings of
-    names of well-known individuals.
-
-  notes:
-    - Transliterate double digraphs as a single digraph, i.e. шш -> sh, not shsh
-    - In the Roman, no distinction is made between digraphs such as 'sh' and single contiguous letters,
-      (e.g. 's' followed by 'h').
-    - The Cyrillic ъ and ь are not transliterated, but instead are left out of the transliteration.

-  description: |
-    This system is the Intelligence Community standard for the transliteration of Tajik names that
-    will be applied to all final written reports and products for IC consumers. It is not intended to
-    eliminate variations of a name that can contribute forensic information. Rather, it is to provide
-    an IC standard Romanized (English) transliteration from Tajik that can then be linked to forensic
-    information in ways that will help identify the referent of the name.
-
-    In cases where an individual’s name has already been transliterated in a variant spelling, the IC
-    Standard spelling should appear first, followed by the variant spelling(s) in parentheses at the
-    first usage. In addition, if the original Cyrillic-script spelling is known, that spelling should
-    also appear in parentheses following the name, if possible, following best practices of the
-    issuing organization and taking into consideration information system capabilities. For example:
-    Parvona Jamshedov (also seen as Parvona Dzhamshedov, Парвона Ҷамшедов). This convention is
-    designed to ensure that vital forensic information is not lost.
-
-    For names of persons who are known to not be part of the Tajik-speaking community, use the
-    relevant IC transliteration standard for names from that language (e.g., Mikhail, Yitzhak).
-    A translator’s note may be used to clarify the known origin of the person. Spell names of
-    individuals from languages that are written in Roman letters as they are spelled in those
-    languages (e.g., George Clooney, Jorge Garcia, Georges Pompidou).
-
-    In the case of active senior government officials in the on-line CIA World Factbook and the on-
-    line directory of Chiefs of State and Cabinet Members of Foreign Governments, the spellings given
-    in these on-line reference works should be used in place of the IC Standard. For any individual
-    who has at one time been listed in the Factbook or Chiefs of State directory but who no longer
-    appears in those resources (i.e. is no longer a government official), the IC Standard spelling
-    should appear first, with the spelling, if known, as it previously appeared in those resources
-    listed within parentheses at the first usage.
-
-    The primary goal is to produce a consistent Romanized transcription of names that is specifically
-    readable to the English-speaking non-specialist. The system uses the 26 letters of the standard
-    (English) Roman alphabet. Some ambiguities in the Romanized form will occur without the use of
-    diacritics. However, within the context of a report, where additional information about the
-    individual is provided, the referent will be clearly identified. This system will be used in
-    conjunction with on-line tools, name dictionaries, and lists containing conventional spellings of
-    names of well-known individuals.
-
-  notes:
-    - Transliterate double digraphs as a single digraph, i.e. шш -> sh, not shsh
-    - In the Roman, no distinction is made between digraphs such as 'sh' and single contiguous letters,
-      (e.g. 's' followed by 'h').
-    - The Cyrillic ъ and ь are not transliterated, but instead are left out of the transliteration.
-    - Transliterate ‘е‘ as ‘ye’ at beginning of words, ‘e’ elsewhere
