 * Leaning oppose. My brief search gets more Google hits and Google News hits for the current spelling. BD2412  T 03:25, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * @ BD2412 I don't know whether Wikipedia has any specific term for that, but I do think what you've encountered is result of some circular effect, which is to say that most Indian publications just blindly copy-pasted the spelling from the Wikipedia page throughout the years. The researcher here has in fact met Bandyopadhyay multiple times and the subject of that scholarly paper is no one else but Bandyopadhyay himself. So I don't really see why Hatcher himself would't get the spelling of his subject's name right. 157.40.243.39 (talk) 08:46, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * We call it citogenesis, and it is indeed seen as a problem by some. But in cases such as this, any proposed solution is worse than the disease. The fact that Wikipedia may have influenced the common name is irrelevant; That is unprovable and in any case the damage is done. Andrewa (talk) 09:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Nom appears to think that primary sources should take precedence. In fact it's the opposite; They have little relevance. So we should go with BD2412's searches. Andrewa (talk) 09:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
