Name of article![edit]

This should be renamed to Siege of Baghdad since it was really a siege instead of a simple capture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cauca50 (talk • contribs) 16:58, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Result of a siege may either be a success or a failure. The word capture is I think it more imformative. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 08:18, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
