Persian literature or another literatures
Because Movlavi(Rumi) books are in Persian, it must be arranged in Persian literature category. How do you arrange him in other literature categories when all his books are in Persian. If you want to arrange him in another literature, first please go to literature page and declare a new definition for literature satisfy your claim. The second think I must say is that for Movlavi(Rumi), language and tribe was not important. He believe idea is important not language, as he says
ای بسا هندو و ترک هم زبان
ای بسا دو ترک چون بيگانگان
پس زبان محرمی خود دیگراست
هم دلی از هم زبانی بهتر است
There are many Turks and Hidu understand each other well(have the same language)
There are so many couples of Turks that don't understand each other.(don't have a common language)
So the language of mutual understandig is something else
Having common ideas is more important than having the same laguage.
- I know at least he once talks about language and he says:
پارسی گو، گرچه تازی خوشتر است
عشق را خود صد زبان ديگر است
Speak Persian, though Arabic is nicer
The language of love(I mean عشق in Persian) is another
I know my translation is full of error. I apolagize for this bad translation. If you know Persian and English perfectly. I'll be glad to fix them.

"No language can be superior to another. Just like no nation can be superior to another. Take time to read on the development of the Turkish language and see how the Republic of Turkey respects all languages and nations in the world. Just like what the Mevlevi Order followed. And thanks to Mustafa Kemal Ataturk"

- Yeah ... I guess that's why Kurds, Armenians and Greeks have such a good time in Turkey, right?! Tājik 22:58, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- Tajik, I think you better not contaminate this encyclopedia with your hatred and ignorance. Visit Turkey, if you can bear it without getting sick in the stomach from jealousy, to see how Armenians, Greeks, Jews, and Kurds live much much more freely than the Azeris, Kurds, and Arabs of your country. - Ur
And don't remove from the article a person who is currently a highly influential Dede in the Mevlana Order. And remember Mevlana had to flee the Persian Empire due to the protection from the Mongolians and he found peace in the Seljuk Empire which is a Turkish Empire, a breeding ground for the Ottoman Empire both economically and socially. He settled in Konya and gave the world an important way of thinking Sufisim. Yes by race he can be Persian if it is that important but due to his influence to the Turkish Society we regard just like one of us. Just like Rumi would have expected to be.
And remember Tājik get a life!

Really nice country with nice people ... but the Kurdish- and Armenian problem is still there. And believe me: Kurds have certainly a better life in fundamentalist Iran (I guess that's the country you think I am from) than in secular, anti-Kurdish Turkey.
