Talk:Mohamed Atiq Awayd Al Harbi

I think default sort is a mistake for Arabic names
I think default sort is a mistake for individuals with Arabic names.

People with Arabic names don't inherit a surname, like people with an European do. Traditionally the closest thing they have to a "last name" is their father's first name.

And it is absolutely clear to me that it is a mistake to use default sort for the Guantanamo captives -- because the US Department of Defense can't consistently figure out what their names are.

Therefore I just reverted an edit where a well-meaning contributor imposed default sort on this individual.

Please don't impose default sort on these guys without discussing it first.

I reverted this edit. Sticking a who template into a quote is not useful. We didn't draft the quoted material. We can't modify the quoted material to clarify who "they" are. Geo Swan (talk) 00:32, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
