Title of Page[edit]

I know the sisters are coined by a popular name but they killed one person. Usually a page are named The Murder of "Insert Victim's Name" when there is one victim. Why is this one any different? I don't know about this case enough to present any further argurment at this time. Asr1014 (talk) 06:34, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Articles in Wikipedia are often named by a title most recognisable to reading audiences, using terms people would be most likely to search for. In this case, very few people would think of searching for "The Murder of Farah Swaleh Noor" while "Scissors Sisters (convicted killers)" would prompt immediate recognition by people who had heard of the story.
