Requested move

This section contains Indic text. Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks or boxes, misplaced vowels or missing conjuncts instead of Indic text.

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved. Based on available evidence, "Kaushik" seems to be more common in reliable sources than "Koushik". Aervanath (talk) 20:17, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Koushik Sen → Kaushik Sen – .
The common English spelling of Bengali: কৌশিক is Koushik. When searched in Google with query "Kaushik Sen" Google tries to correct it –"Did you mean: Koushik Sen?"
But Sen uses the alternative spelling of his name which is "Kaushik Sen"

Times of India uses the spelling Kaushik
Indian Express also uses the spelling
Telegraph uses the spelling Kaushik (though it should be noted Telegraph have used spelling Koushik Sen multiple times too).
Hindustan Times using the spelling Kaushik.

But, since most of the leading newspaper are using the spelling Kaushik Sen, I am requesting a move.
Note: This person does not have a personal website. There is not any website for his theatre group Swapnasandhani too. So, no hope of getting help from there! relisted --Mike Cline (talk) 10:00, 19 May 2012 (UTC) Tito Dutta ✉ 18:53, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Admin relisting comment - It is difficult to support this request when all the sources and external links in the article refer to the current name and not the requested name. This is clearly a common name discussion so present evidence as to which name is the common name. --Mike Cline (talk) 10:00, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Huh? All the links Tito provided do use the proposed title. Jenks24 (talk) 19:58, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Searching on gnews, I found the proposed title to be more common: 184 results for the proposed title, compared to 103 for the current title. Jenks24 (talk) 19:58, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
