Taunsa Sharif → Taunsa – The common name for this city is simply "Taunsa"; Sharif is an honorific title meaning "noble" and is often applied to many cities in Pakistan. For example, Multan is often referred to as "Multan Sharif" (Noble Multan) but the city is most commonly known simply as Multan, same with Sehwan (not Sehwan Sharif), Thill (not Thill Sharif).

- Support per nomination. The government of Pakistan also uses 'Taunsa' alone. Lakham Sohneya (talk) 22:50, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

- Yes, I am notified of this. I will keep in mind to start a request discussion to move next time, if I would want to, not move without discussion. Thanks! SaadJatt (talk) 15:54, 10 September 2025 (UTC)
Unsourced stuff
[edit]The article has a lot of unsourced stuff. Either someone can add sources to support a statement or I would have to simply remove the unsourced stuff or poorly sourced such as:
- "The region around Tonsa was an ancient settlement and remained a village or town earlier to 21st century"
- "It was part of wide Multan region in medieval era and then of Mughal era's province of Multan"
- "The region was conquered by the Umayyads in 8th-century spreading Islam in the region"
- "After Baloch civil war in 14th century, some Baloch tribes settled in Tonsa and the adjoining Koh-e-Sulaiman mountain region"
If anyone can add sources for this, please do so! SaadJatt (talk) 22:55, 3 September 2025 (UTC)
