text: Against the tournament being named "The Gulf Cup of Nations".  I have cited the reasons why the tournament should be re-named the official name of the tournament, "The Arabian Gulf Cup.  We are not debating here whether the Persian Gulf is named the so-called "Arabian Gulf", we are just trying to give a reliable piece of information to the public.  WAFF claims this competition to be name the "Gulf Cup of Nations", but in fact the WAFF has nothing to do with this tournament, and only one nation participating in this tournament is a member of the WAFF association.  If the name of this page will not change, I just wish to have the public know that the official name of the tournament is The Arabian Gulf Cup, because that would be the most honest thing to do.Salalah4life (talk) 08:46, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

(3) The most common name in English is Gulf Cup, the full name is Gulf Cup of Nations  (4) The full translation of the Cup's official name in Arabic is "Cup for the Arab States of the Gulf" or "Cup of the Arab nations of the Gulf" (4) The official website of the competition is www.gulfcup.com,  and uses the name Gulf Cup. --Kurdo777 (talk) 09:11, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Salalah4life 's edit 

message: User Kurdo777 has numerously tried to hide the official name of the tournament; I plainly stated that the tournament was officially named as The Arabian Gulf Cup (just look at the competition logos, you've got to be an idiot not to understand that it is named "The Arabian Gulf Cup".  I did not change the name of the competition, I just said that it was officially named as the Arabian Gulf Cup, Kurdo777 gets so angry...Hidden agenda?? you tell me...

text: Anybody can make a logo, and images are not secondary sources anyways, and can not be used as a source, doing so is a violation of WP:OR and WP:Primary. The competition's official name is Gulf Cup, as explained in details in the above section. --Kurdo777 (talk) 14:27, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
