I have a question, if more than half of this lake water surface located on Georgian side, why the main name of this article is Turkish "Aktaş" and not Georgian "Khozapini" ? -- Balakhadze 12:41, 20 June 2013 (UTC) reply

I don't think it would be a question of where the majority of the lake is located and it would be a mistake to turn the question into a nationality peeing contest. It would be a question of what name do English-language sources more commonly use to refer to the lake. I don't know the answer to that, but that is what we would need to look at.

Lake Aktaş is the turkish name for Lake Kartsakhi

Lake Aktaş (also known as Lake Hozapin, Lake Karsak, Lake Azap, Lake Kartsakhi) is a shallow tectonic lake on the high plateau of the Turkish-Georgian border area, in the east-ern part of Anatolia (41° 12’ N, 43° 12’E). See: [1]. Karel61 ( talk) 23:23, 30 May 2015 (UTC) reply
