Arab states of the Persian Gulf → Arab states of the Gulf – None of these states refer to the Gulf as Persian, see for example Gulf Cooperation Council, formally the "Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf". This is explained at the article Persian Gulf naming dispute. The word Persian here seems unnecessarily WP:POINTy, and fails the "naturalness" test in WP:CRITERIA.

It seems like this article is not monitored much. There are vandals repeatedly changing the term "Persian Gulf" to "Arabian Gulf," in all instances where the term is present. I suggest locking this page to stop these vandals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkParker1221 ( talk • contribs) 00:37, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
I made an edit of the Arabic name to reflect the actual Arabic name, but Iranian user "Bijanii" reversed it and even completely removed the Arabic name in an article discussing Arab states! He seems perhaps upset the Arabic name is different than the Iranian and English names, but these are the facts and that person is doing a nationalism-based editing. 176.224.61.226 ( talk) 07:56, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
There is persistent WP:Vandalism and WP:POV from Arab users adding the term “Arabian Gulf states”. There hasn’t been a single reliable English-language source added that meets WP:RS with the term “Arabian Gulf states”. Requests to discuss in the talk page have not been met either.
