Name

I can't find a source that says that Syed was his name. This appears to be a conflation with the honorific sayyid, and we don't use that in article titles on English Wikipedia. Secondly, why is ഉമ്മർ transliterated in three different ways: Ummar in the article title, Umar in the infobox, and Ummer in the lead? I'm going to move the article to Ummer Bafaki Tangal per Roland E. Miller.^[1] Sam Sailor 04:15, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
