Madina

I was reading this talk page and found out that there is a suburb in Ghana named Madina. I know that Medina is also sometimes spelled Madina. However, when a user is searching for Madina, Ghana using the search term "Madina", he will be redirected to this page. Should we at least move Madina to a disambiguation page?

Why so many names in the infobox?

Isn't it should only display the official name? Lililolol (talk) 22:44, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
