Talk:Shayar (poet)

Merge

I have suggested for this article to be merged because Shayar is just a word meanining poet. It is not a word exclusive to Urdu/Persian languages only. An Arabic or a Turkish poet, for example, would still be called a Shayar because the word itself means poet. SEMTEX85 (talk) 22:04, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Oppose merge to poetry, suggesting instead an alternative merge to Urdu poetry, with a hatnote to poetry. The reason for this is that the vast majority of Shayar, writing sher (or Shayari) are writing in Urdu. Those cases where that is not that case can be treated as exceptions. Note that both sher and shayari redirect to Urdu poetry, and that poet does not currently describe the breadth of international poetry forms, which are being discussed on separate pages (reasonable, as they are distinctly notable).

Oppose In that case we have to merge Poet in English Poetry. सुमित सिंह (talk) 07:18, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
