Requested move 28 February 2015

The request to rename this article to Saʿada and Murabtin has been carried out.

If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

Sa'ada and Murabtin → Saʿada and Murabtin – It's on the title blacklist. It's the correct punctuation. --Relisted. Andrewa (talk) 15:12, 8 March 2015 (UTC) Srnec (talk) 20:27, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Any additional comments:

Relsiting comment: I must ask Srnec: correct punctuation according to whom? And while the blacklist may be an indication of policy, it's not itself an authority AFAIK. RM arguments should refer to the the policy (or whatever) that caused a title to be blacklisted, not just to the blacklist itself. Andrewa (talk) 15:18, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support certainly in principle. Srnec, A search on "sa'ada and murabtin" revealed a number of pages that used the grave accent ( ` ) rather than the modifier letter left half ring ( ʿ ). Both are used for ayin but the modifier letter left half ring I believe is more correct. Greg Kaye 10:16, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
