Sirhan or Sarhan

edit

The name mentioned on an official signboard in the article is Sarhan. The location marked on Google map also says Sarhan. I believe page should be renamed to Wadi Sarhan by someone with page mover rights. The other reason for rename is it's similarity with Siran Valley in Pakistan which in Urdu is called Wadi Siran, Siren and can be Sirhan as well. I was confused earlier when I searched Siran and this page also came in results and thought it might be another name for the same valley. Though I placed distinguish template on Sirhan Valley, a redirect to this page but this needs to be sorted out. USaamo (t@lk) 16:55, 3 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Well this discussion is more about renaming the page to correct spellings since current title is confusing with regard to it. USaamo (t@lk) 08:18, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
