Contents 1 Name of page 2 Statistical error? 3 Correct name is Rafic Hariri International Airport 4 Requested move

[edit] Name of page

The official title of the airport is Rafic Hariri International Airport with a c and not a q. Somebody needs to move this. MEA707 06:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah and remove the ridiculous "long vowel" marks. Or else we'll have to change each and every page dealing with an Arabic name. Petergee1 16:32, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I put this page up for a move again to Rafic Hariri International Airport. Petergee1 08:52, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

The move has been completed. Thank you.--thunderboltz^(Deepu) 06:48, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Statistical error?

in the statistics table it says that 2004 saw 4,334,710 passengers come through the airport yet later on in the article it says "In 2004, the airport recorded a record 3.35 million passengers" which is a contradiction also to note is "The year 2005 is expected to be slightly lower as a result of the political instability in the country following Rafīq Hariri's assassination." which isn't cited and sound like opinion (212.100.216.214 13:08, 27 June 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Correct name is Rafic Hariri International Airport

Why was this page renamed Beirut International Airport? The airport was renamed to Rafic Hariri International Airport after Lebanese PM Rafic Hariri's assassination in 2005. Can an administrator please move it back? MEA707 05:58, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

This article has been renamed from Beirut International Airport to Beirut Rafic Hariri International Airport as the result of a move request. --Stemonitis 11:41, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
