Article Name

@QalasQalas: I saw you changed the article name. In Wikipedia, the names of articles on Somali people are often written by their common names. For example, the article name of the vice president one generation before this person is Ahmed Elmi Osman, not Ahmed Karaash. Where did you get the consensus to move the page name?

@Freetrashbox Reasons for Alternative names redirect to the most appropriate article title (for example, Edson Arantes do Nascimento redirects to Pelé) WP:RPURPOSE.

Former president of Puntland full name is Abdirahman Mohamed Mohamoud Farole, and Farole is his 4th grand father, so they short cutted Abdirahman Farole. WP:CONCISE, WP:PRECISE.

Redirects from long names

Another Example Joseph Robinette Biden Jr, Redirects from long names to Joe Biden. WP:CONCISE, WP:PRECISE

@QalasQalas: I adopted “Mohamed Ali Yusuf” as the name of the article because it says on the Somali Parliament member's introduction page that he is “Mohamed Ali Yusuf”. In writing this article, I consulted a number of sources, but rather few of them refer to this person as “Mohamed Gaagaab. In the first place, a consensus should be reached to change the name of the article. At least until someone else agrees with you, you need to revert to the original “Mohamed Ali Yusuf”.

@QalasQalas: I am frustrated that you continue to make other edits without answering my questions. I am going to request at Wikipedia:Requested moves revert to the original page name. If you disagree with that, please write me with your opinion. Freetrashbox (talk) 21:39, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Freetrashbox Sorry, I'll try my best. My intention is not to frustrate you. QalasQalas (talk) 21:42, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I requested the move with the correct method at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests. Freetrashbox (talk) 23:43, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
