I've been thinking, with recent consensus to move Kfar Saba to Kfar Sava, and other similar cases, maybe it's high time to seriously reconsider repeating incorrect transliterations. I would like to rename this article to Operation Uvda, as well as the corresponding disambiguation page. Maybe the page about the airport too, but at a later stage. —Ynhockey(Talk)00:30, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Should be easy to determine, since it seems to be a common noun in Hebrew meaning "fact". Anyone?
There is an Uvda Valley with important archaeological findings (Leopard Temple etc.), an airport serving Eilat, and an operation at the close of the 1947-49 war, all named after the valley, or after the Hebrew word for "fact", or both, plus a popular Israeli TV programme by this name. So plenty of reason to sort this out - and sources to draw on.
Once this has been done, please extend the result to all pages containing the word: Uvda (Israel), Operation Uvda, and Ovda Airport.
The latter might prove the most problematic,since even the int'l ICAO abbreviation contains an "O": LLOV.
