But you tried to correct a title sourced from Turkey. Are you implying another country should adapt their terminology and self identification to suit you?

So it would suit you just fine if an English-language document aimed at English-speakers but sourced from Austria referred to the country as Österreich and its capital as Wien.

Sure... Just like I would not expect us to identify ourselves differently to appease another culture or language. It would be a courtesy by choice and should never be a requirement of political correctness.
