Requested move 22 September 2015

 * 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. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: no consensus. No agreement about whether there's a primary topic or not, so we default to the status quo, which means leaving this page where it is. Ikshvaku (Hinduism) will be moved back to Ikshvaku. Jenks24 (talk) 11:37, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

Ikshvaku (disambiguation) → Ikshvaku – After moving Ikshvaku to Ikshvaku Hinduism this page should be moved to Ikshvaku as discussed in Talk:Ikshvaku dynasty. -- Pankaj Jain Capankajsmilyo (talk · contribs · [//tools.wmflabs.org/xtools-ec/?user=Capankajsmilyo&project=en.wikipedia.org count])  12:53, 22 September 2015 (UTC) Relisted.

 * Note. I closed this as moved because it had been unopposed for several weeks, but it has been contested on my talk page so I'm re-opening it and giving it a relist. Jenks24 (talk) 08:51, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I don't believe there is a genuine need for disambiguation. Rishabha is a common name, and the alternative name Ikshvaku that he is supposed to have had is not well-sourced. In fact, there are Jaina texts that say that Rishabha was born in the Ikshvaku dynasty of Ayodhya. The collection edited by Wendy Doniger has over 20 mentions of Rsabha but no occurrence of Ikshvaku. So, I don't think there is a genuine problem here. On the other hand, moving Ikshvaku to a disambiguation page will create a lot of problems within Wikipedia because there are some 40 wikilinks to it, and perhaps more will appear in future. - Kautilya3 (talk) 23:22, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
