Requested move 7 June 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

No consensus. See some disagreement here and in reliable sources as to whether this article is titled by a misspelling of "Khadar" or just an alternative spelling of that name. It does seem odd that several reliable sources would get it wrong. So I'll create a redirect from the proposed title as an alternative spelling. As is usual with a no-consensus outcome, if it can be shown in reliable secondary sources (the affidavit produced is a "primary" source, also check the disclaimer at the bottom of that report) that "Khader" is a misspelling rather than a correct alternative, then a new requested move can be opened to correct the spelling.

U. T. Khader → U. T. Khadar – correct spelling as per his election paper filing. Xzinger (talk) 14:50, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). –Ammarpad (talk) 17:53, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The four other citations in the article say 'Khader'. Celia Homeford (talk) 14:59, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am confused here. Should we spell his name as per his affidavit, which is a sworn legal document, or go by media reports which may have inadvertently misspelled his name? Is there a wikipedia policy on such naming conflicts?--Xzinger (talk) 16:41, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
