Title

The title of this page needs to changed as "Allama" is an honorific term. However, there is already another Khalid Mahmood so I don't know how to do this. Any suggestions? RookTaker (talk) 21:08, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

With similarly named people, the better-known one gets their name alone, and the others get a disambiguator in parentheses, usually their occupation. I'm not familiar with either Mahmood, but the MP seems a bit more notable, just going by their articles. So this one should probably go to Khalid Mahmood (allama). Or perhaps allamah, to fit the spelling used in that article. See "Requesting a single page move" for instructions. InedibleHulk (talk) 07:29, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
The word "Allama" means Islamic scholar. As such, we should probably call the page Khalid Mahmood (Islamic Scholar). I will make a request. RookTaker (talk) 11:01, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
That's fine, too. But "scholar" should be lowercase, like John Smith (British mathematician). InedibleHulk (talk) 19:32, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Allama Khalid Mahmood. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
