[[Anticyra]] isn't another name for a different time or different period. It's simply the exact same Greek name of the exact same location of a Greek settlement romanized two ways: the traditional Latinized form and the modern treatment. The current situation is not even a POV fork: it's simply a false one: the modern town is sometimes romanized as Anticyra (albeit unofficially now that Greece standardized things) and the ruins are increasingly romanized the modern way. Most of the content of the two pages should be merged here to a single treatment of the ancient and modern settlements at this site, although the treatment of the 1½ unrelated "Anticyras"/"Antikyras" should go to [[Antikyra (disambiguation)]] with a hatnote mention here. — [[User talk:LlywelynII|<span style="text-shadow:#BBBBBB 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Llywelyn<font color="Gold">II</font></span>]] 11:04, 26 July 2015 (UTC)}} |

[[:Ellalan (monarch)]] → {{no redirect|Elara}} – The article title in its present form (Ellalan) is incorrect. '''Elara''' is the [[WP:COMMONNAME|most common name]] for this article, which the article has been known by for most of its existence. It is also very important to know that though a Tamil, Elara is mostly known through a Sinhalese context. ie. he was king in the Sinhalese monarchy in a Sinhalese kingdom and he is mostly known though Sinhalese sources. Furthermore it is by far the most common and relevant name, see comparision [https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Elara%2C+Ellalan&year_start=1800&year_end=2000&corpus=15&smoothing=3&share=&direct_url=t1%3B%2CElara%3B%2Cc0%3B.t1%3B%2CEllalan%3B%2Cc0 here]. Google results also reflect this. "Elara 'King'" returns [https://www.google.com.au/search?safe=off&q=Elara+King&cad=cbv&sei=4gazVZS5NsermAW13ob4Cw#safe=off&q=Elara+%27King%27 244,000 hits], "Elara monarch" returns [https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Elara+monarch&oq=elara+mon&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j0j69i57j0l3.3991j0j9&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=119&ie=UTF-8 49,400], 'Elara Sri Lanka" [https://www.google.com.au/search?safe=off&q=Elara+King&cad=cbv&sei=4gazVZS5NsermAW13ob4Cw#safe=off&q=Elara+Sri+Lanka 39, 600], while "Ellalan" returns [https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&oq=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=119&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&q=Ellalan 84, 100], most of which do not even related to this article. A Google Books search also returns more for Elara with [https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&oq=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=119&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&tbm=bks&q=Elara 64, 500 hits] and only [https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&oq=Ell%C4%81%E1%B8%B7a%E1%B9%89&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=119&ie=UTF-8#q=Ellalan&safe=off&tbm=bks 1360 hits for Ellalan].

| Recently, numerous edits have been made to the Chinese language#Nomenclature section and there has been much discussion in the talk page (please see the two sections above). I would kindly ask all editors to discuss/comment on three things: 1. whether some references or works of some authors (e.g., Douglas) may be deemed unreliable for that section simply based on their time of publication. 2. the conduct of Ƶ§œš¹ and me in recent editing and talk page discussion. 3. the content of two versions of the section. Thank you very much for your potential contribution! Lysimachi (talk) 17:57, 28 June 2015 (UTC) |
