Binali Yıldırım → Binali Yildirim – Should this be moved to
Binali Yildirim, with "i" rather than "ı"? The
WP:DIACRITICS guideline allows modified letters, but generally says words should be written the way they are usually represented in English language sources. I think this may be a case where most sources writing in English tend to simply use "i" rather than the Turkish
ı.

Support. This person's name is represented as "Binali Yildirim" in all leading English language sources I have reviewed:
Changing the canonical surname rendering to "Yildirim" thus seems in line with
WP:DIACRITICS, which says "when deciding between versions of a word which differ in the use or non-use of modified letters, follow the general usage in reliable sources that are written in the English language". Of course, "Yıldırım" would be worth having as an alternative rendering in the introduction.

I've converted my initial comment to an
requested move. Here are a few additional English language sources using the dotted "i":
It seems that most of the English language reporting about Mr. Yildirim / Yıldırım is choosing to use a dotted "i", which per
WP:DIACRITICS, implies that Wikipedia probably should as well.

This could be an example of the typists etc not being able to choose but being coerced by not having the ı character available. Most of his activities seem to happen within Turkey.
