There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Masjid al-Haram which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 12:14, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus to move but consensus to move to proper Arabic transliteration Cas Liber ( talk · contribs) 01:19, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
– "Mosque of the Two Qiblas" is the most common English-language translation for this name, and the English-language titles should be preferred. Other names, such as "Two Qibla Mosque" are much less common. This would also address the slight difference in title between our articles on the more famous Arabian mosque and the less-famous Somalian one. --Relisted. George Ho ( talk) 04:16, 11 May 2015 (UTC) 209.211.131.181 ( talk) 00:03, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
If an Arabic article has no primary transliteration, then the standard transliteration should be used as the article title. Khestwol ( talk) 05:16, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
If there is no primary transcription, a standard transliteration is used.Per WP:MOSAR#Consonants the standard is to transliterate the letter ya (when it is functioning as a consonant and not long vowel) as y (not i). The current spelling in Qiblatain wrongly uses i. It must be changed to Qiblatayn to make it standard, per the table. Do you find anything wrong with using this spelling? Khestwol ( talk) 17:07, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
A recent discussion concerning Al-Aqsa Mosque led to the discovery of a couple of sources that may be helpful to the editors of this article. See Talk:Al-Aqsa Mosque#'Double sentence' edit. — Malik Shabazz Talk/ Stalk 04:57, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
