Talk:Zahran tribe

The article claims that the Zahran surname is not related to the tribe itself. Where is the proof of this claim? Zahran is a big tribe with its members living all over the Middle East, why should they be only confined to Saudi Arabia and not Jordan or Palestine? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.141.137.156 (talk) 05:36, 16 February 2015 Akmal94 (talk) 01:45, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Where is the proof a "Zahran tribe" even exists? This article is very weak in it's sourcing. It's simply a fact that a lot of people who have the Zahran surname do not belong to a "Zahran tribe". Zahran is an actual word in languages spoken by more than 300+ million people, so it is natural that this word be given to various people, places, and things without these things being connected. Where is your proof that a "Zahran tribe" exists any where outside of al-Baha? --Zahran80 (talk) 04:03, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

And where is your proof that they don't exist? I agree that this article has no sources but its a fact that zahran is an actual tribe. The meaning of the name dosen't mean they are not connected, Zahran is an Arabic word for "flower" as i know and if its found in other languages, then its root comes from arabic. Even Harb which means "War" in Arabic is an Arab tribe in Saudi Arabia yet no one doubts their existence. Zahranis like most Arab tribes were most likely bedouins before settling down, so it would make sense for them to migrate to the Levant and settle there. Akmal94 (talk) 12:35, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

refimprove template

Hi, I have improved this article with many sources and added sourced contents. I guess we can now remove the template? Thanks SharabSalam (talk) 22:03, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

@Bradv: Hi, can you give us your opinion regarding this issue? SharabSalam (talk) 22:06, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

@SharabSalam: Looking at the article as it stands, the references have improved, although there are still some major concerns. The "Zahrani tribal weddings" section only has one source which appears as a link to a website and not a news article, so that citation needs to be updated. And the "Notable people" section only has one source, which doesn't actually support the statement made. The best way to make this article survive the current deletion discussion would be to add citations to reliable sources throughout the article, and we're still a long way from that. Any statements that cannot be sourced should be removed. Bradv 22:15, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

Predictably, of course, having survived deletion it will now be left to rot. I've removed some of the more rambling and seemingly irrelevant material. Pinkbeast (talk) 14:36, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

750,000 Number

The 750,000 appears to be a result of a random edit. The original as can be seen here states 5,000 [1] The referenced source now produces a dead link. The 750,000 numbers comes from a random edit from a non-logged-in user: [2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zahran80 (talk • contribs) 18:50, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

irrelevant notable people

Dear @NinjaRobotPirate:, I found that you protected this article, so I thought you could help remove irrelevant content from it, namely:

• the section of "Notable people from Zahran tribe", most of these people had their tribes names for ages, they are from Daws tribe, the Zahrani Tribe is contemporary, the confusion stems from "Zahran" as an ancestor, not a tribe, he was a person from which the tribe of Daws descended, at his time, while Zahran as a tribe (not a person) is a contemporary tribe, they descend from the same person "Zahran" but the notable people mentioned in this article did not descended from Zarhan Tribe, this fallacy or confusion led to many wrong additions of historical figures who lived before the existence of the contemporary tribe of Zahran, therefore, I am going to remove the notable people who lived near the time of Islam establishment, because their biographers named them Dawsi not Zahrani, I already did that in Arabic Wikipedia, looking forward to hearing from you.--Abu aamir (talk) 11:15, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
