Title

The title should be something more representative than "May 2010 Lahore attacks." Currently, it sounds like a suicide attack when it's actually a group of armed men storming a place of worship. Something like "2010 Lahore Ahmadi mosque attacks" is suggestive. Mar4d (talk) 15:59, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

I agree, there should be some element of "religiosity" added. Peaceworld111 (talk) 21:51, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

The ITN conversation suggested not to have mosque for whatever reason. But how does it imply suicide? maybe we can change that. Or put "Ahmadi" in there? (as in, i believe, the biggest attack in Iraq)Lihaas (talk) 23:52, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

taking into account the related title Persecution of Ahmadiyya, i would propose to rename to May 2010 Lahore attacks on Ahmadiyya. very best, oscar (talk) 12:03, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

It should be titled "May 2010 Lahore attacks on Ahmadiyya Mosques. Khadim98 (talk) 19:16, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

would supprt change of title as proposed by Khadim98--Wikireader41 (talk) 00:59, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Support change, but "mosques" is cotnroversial, per Oscar above, perhaps May 2010 Lahore attacks on the Ahmadiyya community? or take out Lahore?Lihaas (talk) 22:16, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

'Mosques' is the word used by overwhelming majority of RS's to describe the locations attacked and one of the fundamental reason for notability of these attacks.--Wikireader41 (talk) 01:29, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Mosque or 'Place of worship'

As Ahmadiyya Worship places are not considered mosques so the word "mosque" has to be changed to "Worship place(s)" Pakistanfanforeva (talk) 09:39, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

No, it may not be considered mosque by pakistan, but it is considered mosque by the worldwide community, and wiki doesn't follow pakistan. Peaceworld111 (talk) 10:37, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Pakistanfanforeva (talk) beware of breaching the expectation that editors have a Neutral point of View. Nb. I have added a section title, "Mosque or 'Place of worship'". --220.101.28.25 (talk) 10:55, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages doesn't follow what the Pakistani law or what its people say. If the sect claims that it is a mosque, then it will be that way according to wikipedia policies. Misplaced Pages gives full right to the owners of the buildings to call it whatever, mosque or not. Since Ahmadis identify it as mosque, let be that way. Peaceworld111 (talk) 13:22, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

One thing I would like to add to this is that in the whole world each TV Channel or news channel apart from Pakistani ones, call it a mosque and not a place of worship. I just mention this so that this point may be considered if any user would want to change the name from 'mosque' to 'place of worship'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.15.176.165 (talk) 19:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Last 2 comments are reason enough to keep as it.Lihaas (talk) 22:17, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Take this also into note Peaceworld111's Contributions, he seems to have history of calling Ahmadiyya Worship places's as Mosque. I not sure but he might be a member of this community, thus he does have a WP:CONFLICT Conflict of interest.--yousaf465' 05:41, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
