Common name

[edit]

The common English name for the bridges appear to be different from the one currently used as article title. Here's the results per WP:SET. I have included the keyword "bridge" and excluded "Wikipedia" in searches to filter out all Wikipedia and non-bridge-related results.

Google Advanced Book Search:

Google Scholar:

Google News:

All-Google Search:

Every Google search except Google Scholar (coincidentally also the only platform where it is not possible to restrict searches to English-only results) supports the "Khudafarin" spelling. Therefore, I intend to move the article to "Khudafarin Bridges" and adding "Khoda Afarin bridges" as an alternate name in lead in three days if no one objects. — Golden call me maybe? 15:13, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Khudafarin Bridges. I was curious why the all-Google one is so dominant compared to the others and it seems heavy on Facebook and Instagram usage which I think is interesting and is probably a better reflection of what people use than a tiny difference among scholars. Note that I came here via this canvassing allegation going on at Commons. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:06, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I also see that this UNESCO page as a Azerbaijan proposal uses "Khudafarin bridges" located in "the Khoda Afarin County" which I find an interesting and intentional choice. I am trying to see if there was an Iranian proposal to get more useful sources. I have no idea of the language or nationalist issues behind these choices but I suspect there is some that people know but don't want to acknowledge.
