| 117744876 | almost 4 years ago | Also, side note. Urdu Wikipedia is generally not reliable for names of places. Contributors try and translate names based on guessed pronunciation and transliteration, for the sake of publishing a page. It's the reason why I'm trying to localise the names in Urdu 😅 |
| 117744876 | almost 4 years ago | I'm not sure about nearby areas, but since most Urdu speakers in the village are members of the Ahmadiyya community, I felt it would have been more appropriate to name it that. The actual name, actually refers to the centre on sheephatch lane, but the entire village is *generally known as Islamabad. Happy to have it reverted, if you feel it's better to leave it as "Tilford". |

| 117744876 | almost 4 years ago | Hi Jon. It does seem unusual but the Ahmadiyya community refers to this place as "Islamabad (Tilford)", as their headquarters are located here. |
