The result of the move request was: Moved to Abdul Hamid (politician, born 1886). Since there were multiple ministers of this name, we will have to fall back to birth year. (closed by non-admin page mover)Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 18:36, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

If they are popularly known as "Minister Abdul Hamid" then this is the correct WP:COMMONNAME? Polyamorph (talk) 14:51, 14 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
In south Asian countries like Bangladesh, people call minister an minister that's a common thing. In India, they call Memeber of Parliament MP or Neta J which is common thing.  DIVINE  15:39, 14 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'm going to contest this one. The requested target is a redirect to the president of Bangladesh. Given the ambiguity over the common name I think this would be best discussed as a full RM.Polyamorph (talk) 20:30, 14 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Polyamorph: @DIVINE: Originally when creating the article, I was intending on naming it Abdul Hamid (politician) but then realised that it was taken. Many of the sources refer to him as Minister Abdul Hamid, so I decided that was the next best option. SalamAlayka (talk) 11:17, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
So, i think the redirect should be erased and the page should be moved.  DIVINE  18:59, 17 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
