This article about what exactly?
[edit]Okay, so article should serve one subject. If this article is about the Hashimite royal family in Jordon we will stick to it.. I think we have to create another article about Hashimites in general. Most of Hashimites live Tehama not in Jordon BTW.--SharabSalam (talk) 11:12, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
Some sources (like Teitelbaum 2001) speak of the "Hashimites", and since Hashimites (rightly) redirects here, it should probably be included in bold ("also spelled Hashimites"). From MOS:BOLDREDIRECT: Terms which redirect to an article or section are commonly bolded when they appear in the first couple of paragraphs of the lead section

- However, if it doesn't appear there is nothing to bold. So the question is whether it should appear. The only truly correct name is the Arabic, and it is nearly always the case that different transliteration rules produce different versions in English letters. Sometimes there are many versions. These are not different names but just different renditions of the same name. In my opinion, redirects are the correct way to handle this, rather than complicating the article lead by adding variations. There is no strict rule about this. Maybe someone else will comment.

- Yes, you're right, redirects are generally the best way to handle this. Not sure why I thought it more relevant in this case. I guess that I've gone through so many "also spelled as" cases lately that I was starting to assume that we always need to do this. But I think I may have been wrong with this one.

What does the Ja’alin tribe in Sudan have to do with the Hashemite monarchy of Jordan?
[edit]These two are seemingly unrelated, except for being descendants of Hashim bin Abd Manaf Ismail7Hussein (talk) 19:06, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- A noble (blood member) of the Hashemite's administration in Hejaz (KSA) is the founder of the Ja'alin tribe Ultimate Tai (talk) 18:10, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
- They're both (Abbasid and Hashemite) from the branches of the Banu Hashim clan. Ultimate Tai (talk) 17:54, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
Shouldn't the Ja'alin claim rights or honorary rights of the Hashemite monarchy?
[edit]They should.........right? Ultimate Tai (talk) 18:13, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
