Image:Saudi-logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 22:02, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Can someone crop the image of Prince Khalid to remove the website title from the picture? It would be very appreciated. Mni9791 ( talk) 05:00, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
I am familiar with Wikipedia's policy. Regardless of whichever one is more accepted or widely known, there is a more pressing issue. Mni9791 ( talk) 01:29, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
The article states that Khalid is the Governor of Makkah Province. Yet whenever the city is mentioned it is referred to as Mecca. To prevent confusion, I suggest Makkah be used. I have never seen it written as Governor of Mecca Province in any Arab newspaper articles. So I suggest, for the purposes of this article -- Makkah be used uniformly. The hyperlink to Mecca's page will satisfy the Wikipedia policy. Mni9791 ( talk) 01:29, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
There's the following paragraph:
"According to a leaked Wikileaks cable, Prince Khalid went to extraordinary lengths to renovate his late father's palace to host a party for Prince Charles, during the Prince of Wales' visit to the kingdom in 2006.[9][10] The cable revealed that at the time, Khalid had been living in the old palace which was in dire need of renovation. He directed a Western business associate to renovate the palace in three weeks and rewarded the businessman with $13,000 when Prince Charles was impressed with the palace. Khalid has since built a new palace while the old palace has been converted into a university.[11]"
Everything in this paragraph seems odd to me.
1) His father was killed long ago. So, for a long time it had been his palace, not his father's. I don't see the importance of the fact that this palace belonged to his father long time ago for this context.
2) "Extraordinary lengths" gives an impression that the renovation was ultra-luxurios. However, the subsequent sentence seems to indicate that "extraordinary lengths" means that the cost was high for this man because the palace was "in dire need of renovation", and doesn't mean that the renovation was ultra-luxurios.
3) $13,000 is "extraordinary lengths"? Come on! YOMAL SIDOROFF-BIARMSKII ( talk) 07:34, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: moved. Although this RM was opposed on the grounds that the proposed title is not the subject's official name, a convincing case was laid out for the proposed title being the WP:COMMONNAME. Article titling policy dictates that, in the absence of other considerations, the common name should be used even if it is not the official name; thus, the balance of policy-backed arguments supports the proposed move.

Khalid bin Faisal Al Saud → Khalid Al-Faisal – While his official name is "Khalid bin Faisal Al-Saud", King Faisal's sons are commonly known with the unofficial last name "Al-Faisal". The name "Khalid Al-Faisal" is more commonly used than "Khalid Al-Saud" or "Khalid bin Faisal", see examples [3] [4] [5] [6] High surv ( talk) 11:09, 19 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.
