i think it not the same. פארוק (talk) 17:55, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is it a synonym for çeşme? --Error (talk) 03:50, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure it is, except that the link takes one to a town, and you obviously mean the Turkish common noun for outdoor water fountain. ArmindenArminden (talk) 22:17, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Sabil" seems to be the more common spelling. Either change title to "Sabil (fountain)", or at least add a redirect for "Sabil". How to avoid a mix-up with Sabil as a place name, I don't know, other than via a common disamb. page differentiating between the common noun and the place names. Even so, sabil seems to mean in Arabic both "road, path, way" and "public (roadside) fountain". Work for Arabic speakers... ArmindenArminden (talk) 22:17, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
