On 9 May 2023, it was proposed that this article be moved from Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo to Hemedti. The result of the discussion was Moved. |
It's clear that this person is very rarely referred to as "Dagalo", and many mainstream media sources don't even include "Dagalo" in his name. WP:GOOGLEHITS are only a weak guide to notability, but for choosing a transliteration for what is "preferred in English language media/academia", I don't see any obvious alternatives. Right now I get:
I presume that the double "tt" is supposed to correspond to دت in the Arabic original - maybe from the pronunciation? Or because nobody expects English speakers to include "dt" in the middle of a word? Anyway, I'll set this as the default now. If anyone has good arguments for changing, please give them here, and if there are no objections within a reasonable delay (passive consensus - since there are very few editors right now), then update.

Just to clarify - Hemetti wins the google hits competition above, which is what I've put. Feel free to provide better arguments for an alternative choice. Boud ( talk) 23:16, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

References from 2019 only,misleading and lies. This person must have been getting help from rich people with false information. I hope his fate stays in Sudan for a rich person who gets away .... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.119.233.218 ( talk) 03:43, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Page moved. ( closed by non-admin page mover) Jerium ( talk) 09:59, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo → Hemedti – According to the article itself, it is what he is commonly referred to. Jay-Z's article isn't titled Shawn Corey Carter, and we shall follow that same logic. Open to other spellings Bremps! 00:54, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
