It's a Mazari cap not a "Pashteen hat"
[edit]This has always been known as a Mazari cap until it was rebranded as a "Pashteen hat" after Manzoor Pashteen. It doesn't make sense for you to give its name as Pashteen due one person, similarly to how we don't title the Karakul hat as the Jinnah hat.
Thanks Foxhound03 (talk) 09:33, 31 July 2020 (UTC) I agree with that point. This hat was historical known as "Mazari hat" as it is still in its place of origin in North-Afghanistan and came to its existing by this name. Calling it "Pashteen hat" in the article name after someone who just wore that hat as a trademark but had nothing to do with its creation or history is simply inappropriate, like you would also not call the article name of the Pakol hat "Massoud hat". Besides that the name "Pashteen hat" itself is highly misleading as this suggests the reader a Pashtun origin of the hat. It is okay to mention this name variation in a second phrase but defenitely not as the name of the article. No consensus here! A change of the article name seems more than necessary!
- Actually, as per WP:COMMONNAME, "Pashteen hat" is more common than "Mazari hat" or "Mazari cap". Khestwol (talk) 15:18, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
first sentence
[edit]If the article is called "pashteen hat", it seems odd that the first sentence begins with "The Mazari cap..." Is this just left over from the move from that title? Joyous! Noise! 15:10, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
