- I'm not really sure what do you guys want. If the transliterations of Arabic names are addressed, then I don't think it matters if the transliteration was capitalized because it is just a transliteration, not a proper standardized spelling for Arabic. However, if for common nouns, I advise against capitalizing them. --Mahmudmasri (talk) 15:46, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
