Poor translation of xiyaban
[edit]What a piss poor translation in the title. Fəxri Xiyaban is "Allée of Honor", i.e. an avenue. While possibly a technically correct translation of xiyaban/аллея, an alley for most English speakers is where you keep your rubbish bins/trash cans behind you flat/apartment. I hope that sources that use this name aren't following Wikipedia. NB that other sources use "Avenue of Honor" or "Avenue of the Honored Ones". — AjaxSmack 16:07, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
