The article was recently renamed by "Al-Ali Revolt" from its previous name "Syrian Revolt of 1919" by Greyshark. I understand the need to distinguish this revolt from the other major Syrian revolt in 1919, that of Ibrahim Hanano in the Aleppo region. However, the rationale for the move was consistency with the "source" and I'm just curious what particular source(s) was being referred to. On a slightly separate note, thanks for expanding this article, but please add citations to the unreferenced passages. --

Al Ameer son: Actually i didn't see the name "Syrian revolt of 1919" at all; Sami Moubayed
[1] talks about "Al-Ali's revolt on the Syrian coast" or the "Alawite revolt"; Matti is the source for all the rest of my edits.

@
Greyshark09: Yea, finding the official or most common name (or any actual name) of this insurrection has been a bit confusing. If I find a name that seems to be used by some RS, I'll bring it up for a discussion later. I was just curious about how you got the current name. Anyway, thanks for clarifying about the source for your edits. Cheers --

I'm not convinced this is the most common name, I've never heard it before. Variations of the former name seem more common (1919 coastal/Syrian/Alawite revolt, etc.).
