Vaikuntha Chaturmurti → Caturmūrti – Per Doris Srinivasan: "The name Vaikuntha, according to the textual evidence, should be reserved for those four-faces Vishnu images where the god, either alone or with his consort, rides on Garuda. When Garuda is absent, as for example in the Kashmiri type to be discussed below, the designation Caturmūrti (four-faced image) is appropriate" in In addition, we can then create the Vaikuṇṭha article with the examples in which the four-faced Vishnu rides Garuda पाटलिपुत्र  Pat   (talk) 12:49, 14 January 2020 (UTC) —Relisting.

 * Oppose the four-headed Vishnu is known by various names. The article covers all variants of these iconography. Vaikuṇṭha (IAST) is Vaikuntha in standard English and denotes popularly the abode of Vishnu. The term Caturmūrti or Chaturmurti meaning four-faced is generic and is also once for other four-headed deities like Brahma. The above sentence can be added in Names section.
