@Ilamxan: This person appears to be usually referred to as "Mullah Shwan" in English language sources.[1],[2],
[3],
[4]
I found two English language sources where he is called "Mullah Shwan al-Kurdi", once, but he is also called "Mullah Shwan" more often in them.[5],[6] Even so, this Wikipedia article appears to be the only English language source that refers to him as Mullah Shwan Kurdi. Simply referring to this person as "Mullah Shwan" would be more concise and use the most commonly recognizable name and established usage in English language sources, for what few sources there are in English, as well as be consistent with how articles about other mullahs, such as Mullah Omar and Mullah Krekar, are often named. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 01:58, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
