I think the external link is of no use because you cannot access the obituary ("This article is available in full to Independent Portfolio subscribers. Access it through BT click&buy").  01:34, 5 Feb 2004 (UTC)

That's odd. It works fine for me, and I am not a subscriber. - SimonP 01:52, Feb 5, 2004 (UTC)

Ba'th party
He was actually a member of the National Command of the Ba'th Party, wasn't he? I presume the one who was, and was also from Jordan, was the same Abd al-Rahman Munif. Palmiro | Talk 15:57, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Name
Vintage, his English language publisher, renders his name as "Abdelrahman Munif". Shouldn't that be what we use? john k (talk) 02:54, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Quartet Books, another publisher of his works in English, uses "Abd al-Rahman Munif". His obituary in The Guardian uses "Abdul-Rahman Mounif". Wikipedia really ought to have a preferred Romanization of Arabic, but alas. In this case it doesn't look as if any specific romanization is more common or standard than the other.

 * The version used here is used by the New York Times, seemingly. I do think that it would be better to use a spelling that is actually used by one of his English publishers, although I don't know how to decide between them. john k (talk) 20:46, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The best thing to do would be to have a redirects from every possible spelling of his name. Madler (talk) 16:10, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
