Category talk:Locations on the Al-Naqus River

This page should almost certainly be "Locations on Al-Naqus River. As with anything else in Midani, the "Al-" is equivalent to "the"; saying "on the Al-Foo River" is like saying "on the the Foo River". ~ Lhynard (talk) 15:26, August 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * Argh, good point. I'll rename them. Artemaz (talk) 15:55, August 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * Hmm, should I go ahead and rename the actual pages as well (removing the "al" from the page name). After all, other non-Zakharan mountains and rivers don't have "the" in the page name. Artemaz (talk) 16:08, August 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * No, don't rename the pages. Just make sure that the def. sorts ignore the "Al-". ~ Lhynard (talk) 20:02, August 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * P.S.: The reason is that you can't insert an adjective between the "al-" and the name. I can say "the northern Shaar", but I can't say, "Al northern Naqus. ~ Lhynard (talk) 20:05, August 7, 2016 (UTC)


 * Cool. That will be my project for tomorrow. ;) Artemaz (talk) 22:55, August 7, 2016 (UTC)
