Talk:Bedouins

This page could use a direct translation of what they say to Ben. --Halcohol 19:47, 25 April 2008 (PDT)
- I have translated the Arabic speech here([Bedouins Arabic Translation]). You can use it to edit the article.

I honestly don't have time to go through and edit every instance of this myself, but for the record "Bedouins" is not proper. The plural of Bedouin, strictly speaking is Badu, but more commonly in english, it doesn't change in the plural. Hence, the two men would be either "the Badu" or "the Bedouin", but not "the Bedouins"—The preceding unsigned comment was added by TDiNardo (talk • contribs) .
- I think it's easier leaving it as The Bedouins--Mistertrouble189 12:27, 11 October 2008 (PDT)
Incorrect name
Edit
I just changed the Frozen wheel page before I realized this was here. The title of this page is incorrect. As a novice user, I'm not sure if I have the authority to change any titles, or if I need someone else to. Anyway, simply put, Bedouins do not live in Tunisia. Per Wikipedia, they can be found in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Libya, Egypt (mainly in Sinai), Israel, Syria, and Sudan. However, in Tunisia, 98% of the population is Arab-Berber, with the remainder being Berber (non-Arab), European, and other. Arab-Berbers would probably be an odd article title. I would suggest Widmore's Tunisian henchmen or something similar. Turambar007 04:20, December 4, 2011 (UTC)
- Interesting. I think we may have gotten the names from some sort of press release or end credits. I'll have to look into it, but if it was an official source then we have to go with that and put it down to the writers getting their facts wrong. If it was a fan made name, we can change it.--Baker1000 18:40, December 4, 2011 (UTC)
