== El Cid Campeador ==

The title of Cid is derived from Arabic Sayyid or more precisely in the Andalusi dialect, al-sidi. This title was bestowed on Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar because of respect for him and not for any claim to descent from Mohammed. Shouldn't this be included? [[User:Jaedza]] Sunday, 21 May, 2006 06:21 UTC

== Percentage ==

Does any one have the percentage of shia that are sayyids I think in iran its 10% and 15% in pakistan according to this iranian article <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Hyqasim|Hyqasim]] ([[User talk:Hyqasim|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Hyqasim|contribs]]) 15:34, 11 February 2008</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

== Name of Idris in Chart==

The reason cited for removing the title for the descendants of [[Idris ibn Abdallah]] was that they were just a subline of Imam [[Hasan ibn Ali]].

I find this to be inconsistent with rest of the lines included in the Chart: after all, descendants of Imam [[Musa al-Kadhim]] could refer to them selves as "Al-Hussaini" since Imam [[Husayn ibn Ali]] was an antecedent to Musa al-Kadhim.

If no one disagrees with this reasoning, I'll add the titles.

*{{ping|Twitteristhebest}} The standard literary Arabic form is "Sayyid". [[User:Anthony Appleyard|Anthony Appleyard]] ([[User talk:Anthony Appleyard|talk]]) 22:15, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

*'''Oppose''' Don't doubt that the word may be overwhelmingly spelled "Syed" in Google search, but I've seldom seen that version in ''English-language'' text. Is this an India-Pakistan vs Europe/US difference? In English usage, the common spelling I see is "Sayyid". [[User:FactStraight|FactStraight]] ([[User talk:FactStraight|talk]]) 00:49, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

*'''Oppose'''. I don't doubt "Syed" is far more common a spelling in South Asia but this topic does not have special ties to that region. Better to go with something closer to the standard Arabic transliteration. — [[User talk:AjaxSmack|<span style="border:1px solid #000073;background:#4D4DA6;padding:2px;color:#F9FFFF;text-shadow:black 0.2em 0.2em 0.3em"><font face="Georgia">&nbsp;'''AjaxSmack'''&nbsp;</font></span>]] 00:56, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
