Talk:Mashhad Urban Railway

Proposal for a Name Change/Move for this Article

A few days ago, I moved this page from "Mashhad Light Rail" to "Mashhad Metro" because it had come to my attention that "Mashhad Light Rail" was a poor translation from the Farsi (and an inaccurate one, as well, as this particular system is not a "light rail" system in the way that term is understood).

It has since been pointed out (here) that "Mashhad Metro" may be an equally inaccurate translation from Farsi, and that the true translated name for this system (and, indeed, the one used by this system's very own operating company in their English-language website) is "Mashhad Urban Railway".

So, is there any strong objection to moving this page (one more time) to a permanent Mashhad Urban Railway page title?

If no one objects, or replies with a strong rationale as to why this page should be left as "Mashhad Metro", I will probably commence another page move to "Mashhad Urban Railway" in the near future. --IJBall (talk) 18:56, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
