Al-Tabqah → Tabqa – The article is currently titled Al-Tabqah, but several related pages such as Battle of Tabqa, Battle of Tabqa Airbase, and Tabqa Dam use the spelling without the "h" and the article "al-" (Tabqa). I am not necessarily advocating for a move specifically to Tabqa; Al-Tabqa could also be a reasonable option. However, it would be useful to agree on a consistent and correct naming convention for the city article and all related pages (Al-Tabqa, Al-Tabqah, Tabqa, Tabqah). The same convention should also be applied to Al-Tabqah District and Al-Tabqah Subdistrict. –yeagvr · ✉ 15:02, 17 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]

- Support: Seems to be qualify for WP:Commonname, with a quick google search showing 1.1M results for "Tabqa" and 274K for "al-Tabqah". TeddyRoosevelt1912 (talk) 02:32, 19 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]
- Support: Yes, move. The proposed title is clearly more prominent in recent usage, e.g. news, etc. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:51, 20 January 2026 (UTC) [reply ]
