The rationale behind the request is: "Muhammad Ali Jinnah was important as convincing the british to divide India for the Muslim, although he had always believed that Hindu-Muslim unity was possible, Jinnah reluctantly came to the view that partition was necessary to safeguard the rights of Indian Muslims. His insistence on this issue through negotiations with the British government resulted in the partition of India and the formation of the state of Pakistan on 14 August 1947.".

Muhammad Ali Jinnah, revered as Quaid-e-Azam ("Great Leader") and Baba-e-Qaum ("Father of the Nation") in Pakistan, stands tall in the pantheon of South Asia's political leaders. His pivotal role in the creation of Pakistan, amidst a cauldron of political maneuverings and regional tensions, solidified his legacy as a leading political strategist and visionary statesman.

Shouldn't the Urdu name be removed considering the article literally says Jinnah didn't speak Urdu? He is mentioned in many Urdu sources but that's not a reason to add the Urdu name. ― Ö S M A N (talk · contribs) 10:44, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@EmperorÖsmanIXXVMD: I believe it is guided by the policies relevant / taken at WT:PAK, and not the subject's personal choices. Since Urdu is the national language and lingua-franca of Pakistan, it should stay or that's probably the reason why it is there. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:47, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@EmperorÖsmanIXXVMD: Then you should discuss the matter in those projects. As a general rule of thumb, I've seen names in Urdu written in Pakistani biographies. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:02, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
