Kāliyā → Kaliya — Common English spellings like Shiva, Ganesha (FA article), Krishna are used in the title, not the IAST Śiva or Ganeśa, which though academic, are known to small group of scholars and readers of books written by scholars. The majority of common Indians will not recognize Śiva, they will recognize Shiva as newspapers, magazines use the common English spelling. The article uses non-IAST/Indian English spellings like Krishna, Garuda, Vrindavan. So for consistency, I suggest we move to the common English (Indian English) spelling Kaliya, instead of the IAST. See also Talk:Mahabharata for similar proposal. Redtigerxyz Talk 17:24, 27 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Unlike Śiva, Kṛṣṇa and Ganeśa, Kāliyā is spelt with the same letters with or without the diacritics.  Anyone uncomfortable at the usage of macrons can "read through" them as they do with Mötley Crüe or Tone Lōc.  —   AjaxSmack   23:23, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Mahābhārata and Kāli can also be read through, still they are now at the article names Mahabharata and Kali. Comparing this with Mötley Crüe or Tone Lōc is erroneous as diacritics are part of the original proper name in both of them; while Kāliyā is an IAST, Kaliya the common Indian English spelling. This article uses Krishna (common Indian English spelling), not the IAST Kṛṣṇa (similarly for Garuda, Vrindavan, Kadamba, Mahabharata etc. IAST is not used) but only for Kāliyā and Nāga(now changed), it is IAST. That is like swinging between American English and British English spellings in the same article.-- Redtigerxyz Talk 15:14, 29 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Agree with the page move to Kaliya, per request. VasuVR  ( talk,  contribs ) 16:19, 1 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Support. I'm generally in favour of IAST, especially in cases where ignoring diacritics gives the same spelling as that of the loose transliteration. But this seems a common enough name, and is not even mostly related to Sanskrit literature for which inaccurate transcription would be confusing, so the simpler name is fine.

 * Support per nom. --CarTick (talk) 16:50, 1 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Support, unless there's a clear argument to be made that "Kaliya" will confuse the term with other standard-Latin renderings of Indian terms. MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:49, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
