Move to Damascus Gate

Should this page not be moved to "Damascus Gate"? Not only is that the name that appears on the world map, but the four gates were named for the direction of the place in the caliphate that they face, a theme that makes "Damascus Gate" more likely to be the official name. This naming theme is mentioned in the database entry "Database: Gates of Baghdad" (although the more accurate translation of Syria is used), as well as in the Wikipedia article. I don't remember where we encounter the name Iron Gate, but it is likely a nickname. Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 05:59, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

It shows on my map as Iron Gate, but I'm fine with the idea of moving the name to that. Lady Kyashira (talk) 06:36, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Correction! There's actually two gates, with the Damascus Gate being part of the Round City itself, while the Iron Gate is part of the outer walls. Lady Kyashira (talk) 14:22, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
