Darya-ye-Noor Diamond

The most difficult thing about writing this article was deciding how to spell the name of the stone. Other spellings are Darya-yi-Noor, Darya-i-Noor, Darya-i-Nur, etc. I settled on Darya-ye-Noor because it was the most frequently reported spelling. If anyone has an opinion on this or has another source for the spelling, I'm all ears.

Thanks Mary

Looks good to me, the different spellings can point to the same article. I suggest moving it to the main site. --Alain 16:06, 17 September 2008 (EDT)
