- Oppose - unfortunately WP:NATURAL does not apply to romanizations where romanization varies. The WP:primarytopic if any in print sources is the Sultan of Sulu. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:15, 15 May 2013 (UTC)]

- Certainly Wisden in 1963 after his last tour. My friend has the book. Leave it with me for now. Thank you. Waj (talk) 21:08, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, Harrias. I have borrowed my friend's 1963 Wisden, which is the 100th edition. The name is in the index and is repeated at least 15 times through the book. I've placed a reference in the article's lead section. Could you please check if it is okay? Thank you. Waj (talk) 14:23, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- Even so, that is one source which uses Alim-ud-Din, against ESPNcricinfo, CricketArchive, Dawn, the Pakistan Cricket Board and The Nation. The latter three are all Pakistan-based sources. Why should one spelling in the 1963 Wisden trump the spelling used almost everywhere else? Harrias talk 14:30, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- Please do not use the word "trump". It sends shivers down my spine! Joking apart, if there is a clear majority of sources (and even if one of them – CricketArchive – is deemed to be unreliable by many editors) then the majority must hold sway as that is a consensus among sources. I see you are a sysop so can you revert the page move because it will not let me override the redirect page? Regards, Waj (talk) 14:44, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
