 * Merge Nerkundram to Nerkunram; apparently the proper spelling; it appears to be a duplicate, but deletion will leave the interlanguage wikilinks all messed up. A merge will place them all together. By the way, the 2011 census shows a village named Nerkundram (with the "d"), as village code 628740, in Ponneri subdistrict, Thiruvallur district, Tamil Nadu state, with a population of 714 (not 35,000 as in the article). In the way back machine (cited as the source for the population), there is a town spelled without the "d" showing the cited population figure, which also appears in the 2011 census, at location code 629173 as a census town, with a population of nearly 60,000. see  (p.29/376). So there seems to be both a village with a "d" and census town without one; both articles describe a census town, at the same location with the same population figure; both are describing the same place - the one without the "d". Merge to the article without the "d", as the proper English name (as recognized by the Indian government), so as to preserve the interlanguage wikilinks.

 * While I have no opinion on the proper spelling, all we'd have to do to preserve the interlanguage links if we merged to the name with the "d" is change the spelling on Wikidata. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 12:50, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
