I doubt people like Reprieve will continue to feign sympathy for this guy now that he is held in his native country instead of Gitmo. 216.232.203.126 04:41, 8 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

What is the source for the name that is used now? After carefully evaluating the sources in the article and multiple secondary sources from search results. I plan to move the article to Abdullah Bin Omar. Any objection? IQinn (talk) 12:07, 2 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

I see the need to move this article to a better name. I left an announcement on this talk page with the suggested name and left enough time for other editors.
IMO that should be enough to perform the move now under established Wikipedia editing practice. Nevertheless another editor demanded that i provide him with a detailed explanation for each intended page move in advanced. I do not think that is necessary because there is time enough for other editors to check the suggested new name and to start an argument base discussion if she/he disagrees.
Here are a few sources that could help other editors to form their opinion over the suggested move. These sources are also easily accessible by putting the new name into the search engine together with a few Guantanamo keywords or keywords related to the individuals live.
Search result for the old name "Abdullah bin Amor" (google.com): 36 results. Wikipedia itself plus all the copies of the Wikipedia article provided by other websites. Just a few other sources one mention that the old name is an alternate name for the from me suggested new name.
Sources for the new name:
and more...
I strongly believe that the from me suggested new name Abdullah Bin Omar is an improvement. And i think there is more than enough time and information for any other editor to form their own opinion. IQinn (talk) 12:01, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
I agree, and I've done the move for you. Olaf Davis (talk) 17:07, 23 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
