Missing Arabic Name & Spelling in Introduction

Just came across this after watching some youtube videos of travelers; given the city is in Iraq, and Arabic and Kurdish are official languages, isn't it a bit odd that the Arabic Spelling of the City is not listed? The section 'spelling' below seems to have both versions listed, and I would expect that both are listed. Checking some other random pages of multi-ethnic/language cities in countries, I can see that 'Brussels' lists the spelling in both French and Dutch; cities such as 'Geneva' also do the same. Even cities like Gdansk (which has a storied past regarding WW2) still lists the German name. I would think the Name should list English (As this is the English Wikipedia page), Arabic, and Kurdish.2600:8802:1600:28:2559:78D0:B6A6:7572 (talk) 05:04, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
