 *  Oppose The BBC World Service ref I used in the article states the name unequivocally as 'The Voice of Free Libya'. Furthermore the majority of the other references I have seen have a 'the' or 'The' appended to the front. I think the 'The'/'the' is part of the proper name.-Kiwipat (talk) 05:58, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support I defer to the following user's expertise in the language.-Kiwipat (talk) 22:08, 15 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Support The name in Arabic is "Sawt Libya al-Hurra". Sawt means Voice; it is not preceded by the definite article "Al-". So, "Voice", not "the Voice"
