Hi Saqib,

We noticed that there was some back-and-forth on the page for the
translation to Urdu. I can read it and it seems the disagreement is about
whether you literally say Wiki Loves Monuments and write what you hear in
English in Urdu alphabet (which is what you're recommending), or you do
actual translation of the words (which is what we used initially). it's
hard for us to judge what is correct. :( We may have to eventually go with
what's in Wikidata, but I'll leave it to Mohammad to make the call.

Best,
Lily
