1803 Siege Leader Correction

[edit]

Under the history section of the article, it is claimed that the city was captured via siege by Richard Wellesley, Earl of Mornington. This is using a citation from the Encyclopedia Brittanica, which states that General Wellesley captured the city. This is a correct citation in that a General Wellesley did capture the city in 1803; however, the General in question was not Richard, but Arthur Wellesley, the future Duke of Wellington.

Was added by a Columbia University IP along with many other links to the site. I have moved it hear in keeping with our external links guidelines so unconnected editors can evaluate its appropriateness. Many of the websites entries are short and may not contain much more than the articles they have been added to. However, this might be a good source even if editors do not consider it an appropriate external link. -- SiobhanHansa 23:00, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Encyclopedia Iranica is produced by Columbia University and is a scholarly source. It should not be removed from the articles as they are pertinent sources of reference.--Zereshk 12:53, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changing name of ahmadnagar to ahilyanagar

[edit]

I first kindly request to change the name of ahmadnagar city to ahilyanagar city Rishabh3k (talk) 04:07, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For that it seems you need to raise a move request using below template
...

Requested move 6 July 2023

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: Procedural close. Malformed and accidental request. It appears that Anubhavklal did not intend to create their own move request, but rather to show Rishabh3k what code to use to create a request. This inadvertantly caused a malformed listing. Anyone can, after reviewing the instructions at WP:RM (and I would recommend looking at WP:NAMECHANGES and WP:CRITERIA for relevant standards), use the following template to create a move request: 
{{subst:requested move|New name|reason=Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.}}

Looking higher up in thr thread the proposal is to change the name to ahilyanagar (I’m assuming the missing first cspitel letter is a mistake) though there is no reason provided as to why that the change should be made.--65.93.194.183 (talk) 21:48, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: Only sources I see mentioning "Ahilyanagar" are news articles (all from either 31 May or 1 June) announcing the proposed change. Meanwhile, the official district website uses "Ahmednagar". There's nothing to indicate that "Ahilyanagar" has actually supplanted "Ahmednagar" in current use. 3 kids in a trenchcoat (talk) 20:26, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ahmednagar renamed as Ahilya Nagar

[edit]

Ahmednagar renamed as Ahilya Nagar 2404:BA00:1:5B6D:3C46:F46E:FFD0:FC9B (talk) 10:27, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But the new name of the city was only approved by the state cabinet on 13 March 2024. But if people want to rename the article, they need to present evidence that "Ahilya Nagar" is the commonly used name in English. Note that news stories about the renaming are not evidence that "Ahilya Nagar" is the commonly used name.

The article should be written using the article name, not some other name. I have added a paragraph to the history section on the renaming of the city. This is an important event in the history of the city, whatever the Wikipedia article is called. -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:27, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have requested an increase in page protection.-- Toddy1 (talk) 10:25, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ahmednagar is officially renamed to Ahilyanagar

Maharashtra Government and India Government is charged the Ahmednagar name to Ahilyanagar Pawar shushant (talk) 09:35, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We obviously know that - the opening words are "Ahmednagar (officially Ahilya Nagar)" - however, our article titles are based on the WP:COMMONNAME in English, not the WP:OFFICIALNAME - Arjayay (talk) 10:14, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ahmednagar city and district official name is Ahilyanagar

[edit]

In this wikipedia page, Ahilyanagar city name is mentioned as Ahilya Nagar which is wrong, Ahilyanagar is a one word which is mentioned on government official website. Please make correction because correct city name is Ahilyanagar, its a one word.https://ahmednagar.nic.in/en/ This is the official website of Maharashtra government for reference 42.108.76.39 (talk) 02:29, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
