Vajrasana

@पाटलिपुत्र: Won't this article be better off named Vajrasana, Bodh Gaya? The English translation appears to be both unnecessary and is often only located after the term Vajrasana in RS.—Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 08:41, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cpt.a.haddock! I am not sure, but I am afraid that the word "Vajrasana" might be so obscure and confusing to most English-speaking readers.... The English language "Diamond throne" at least conveys that the article is about a special sort of throne, which is indeed the case, and it seems to be quite a standard way to refer to that piece of architecture. पाटलिपुत्र (talk) 06:36, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi :) Vajrasana is quite familiar to many English-speakers outside India thanks to yoga. Even otherwise, we aren't a tourist brochure that we need to pander to their requirements when it comes to Wikipedia titles; we simply need to provide a translation and ideally, a pronunciation guide in the lede. Also, cf. Nirvana and Moksha (not Enlightenment/Salvation …) or Tirthankara (and not "Ford-maker"). Thanks.—Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 10:20, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@पाटलिपुत्र: In case you missed this …—Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 19:00, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cpt.a.haddock. I don't have a strong opinion about this, although I personally prefer the current name "Diamond Throne", which I tend to believe is clearer. If you feel strongly against it though, please go ahead with a move. पाटलिपुत्र (talk) 19:10, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done—Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 20:48, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
