Requested move edit

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved. Based on available evidence, "Kaushik" seems to be more common in reliable sources than "Koushik". Aervanath (talk) 20:17, 31 May 2012 (UTC)Reply



Koushik SenKaushik Sen – .
The common English spelling of Bengali: কৌশিক is Koushik. When searched in Google with query "Kaushik Sen" Google tries to correct it –"Did you mean: Koushik Sen?"
But Sen uses the alternative spelling of his name which is "Kaushik Sen"

But, since most of the leading newspaper are using the spelling Kaushik Sen, I am requesting a move.
Note: This person does not have a personal website. There is not any website for his theatre group Swapnasandhani too. So, no hope of getting help from there! relisted --Mike Cline (talk) 10:00, 19 May 2012 (UTC) Tito Dutta 18:53, 11 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • Admin relisting comment - It is difficult to support this request when all the sources and external links in the article refer to the current name and not the requested name. This is clearly a common name discussion so present evidence as to which name is the common name. --Mike Cline (talk) 10:00, 19 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
    • Huh? All the links Tito provided do use the proposed title. Jenks24 (talk) 19:58, 31 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. Searching on gnews, I found the proposed title to be more common: 184 results for the proposed title, compared to 103 for the current title. Jenks24 (talk) 19:58, 31 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
