Asalam Alaykum

Dear reader, thank you for taking the time to create a wiki article for such a great sufi philosopher. I am a descendant of him and like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. This brought a smile to my face as well as my family members. Peace be with you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.80.113.143 (talk) 19:31, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, or move to "Shah Nimatullah Wali". Shāh is a title, not part of the name, and Ni'matullāh is a single ambiguous name. SamuelTheGhost (talk) 13:22, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Takabeg, would you be happy with Shah Nimatullah Wali? -GTBacchus^(talk) 01:53, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Shah Nimatullah Wali is acceptable (17 results). I'm always happy when we can anglicize the titles and contents of articles. -- Takabeg (talk) 02:21, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. "Shah Ni'matullah Wali" (Shah Ni'matullah Wali) seems more common in English books. Takabeg (talk) 02:31, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Split Article Material for Khalilullah

A substantial amount of this article constitutes a sub-biography for Shah Khalilullah, Ni'matullah's son and spiritual successor. Additionally this entry contains a confusing description of Khalilullah's shrine.

There's a good deal of constructive work that may be done for overall improvement of this entry, and separating the material for Khalilullah into a separate historical biography is likely an easy starting point, if not fully sufficient or satisfying.
