 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Keep. The distinct lack of policy-based arguments here almost led me to relist this again, but closing as a keep given that the nominator is now amenable to keeping and renaming. Michig (talk) 07:19, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

First of all, the title should be anglicized.(WP:UE) But I don't think this article is worth moving. Although there are some notes, I wonder the editor is really capable of reading these books.

 * Keep. I've tagged it for cleanup. I think merge is innapropriate in this case because the information here (flag, pop culture, etc.) would be excessive in Mara.--Samuel J. Howard (talk) 15:55, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Comment - I give advance notice I do not understand Pali. But the title "Grīmekhalaṃ" is a nominative case of "Grīmekhala", I hear. It means the title can be interpreted into "Girimekhala is". It's kind of weired, isn't it? From the very first, the title should be anglicized.(WP:UE)
 * It appears to me that Lantan2004 who energetically tussling with editing the article and らんたん the founder of the article are the same person. In that case he/she, on the one hand, said it was translated from ja:ギリメカラ on English Wikipedia, but on the other he/she said it was translated from Grīmekhalaṃ on Japanese Wikipedia. I'm afraid that he/she hit upon the device to fudge up evidences.
 * However I do not insist obstinately that it should be deleated. I would say keep so long as any of you got started a discussion about renaming. And it should be undertaken as per the guidelines.--Akiyama(tentative) (talk) 09:20, 4 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - Great example of an article which rewards the casual click. ("Evil elephant? Yes!") --Раціональне анархіст (talk) 10:10, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - as satisying GNG and rename to Girimekhala which is the predominant spelling in English language reliable sources such as, and  (per WP:UE). 24.151.10.165 (talk) 22:20, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
