Suggestion: Edit Names category page to indicate that when a name appears as "Ma X" or "Sw Y", these are not always complete names, sometimes "prefixes" such as Anand, Deva, Dhyan, Prem, etc are just not known. -- doofus-9 18:20, 28 May 2019 (UTC)


Can you give example: i did not got your proposal.--DhyanAntar 04:13, 29 May 2019 (UTC)


Sw Julian is how we list Julian but it is not his complete name. We don't know if he was Sw Anand Julian, Sw Veet Julian, Sw Prabodh Julian or what, so the proposal is for some words to explain that sometimes when it's only Ma or Sw + a single word name that there may be something missing. -- doofus-9 04:51, 29 May 2019 (UTC)


Yeah, this is the issue and we should somehow indicate on missing or possibly missing word of a name.

But Sw ? Julian is ugly.--DhyanAntar 06:02, 29 May 2019 (UTC)


Yes, ugly, so all i'm talking about is a note on this Category page, a GENERAL note that SOMETIMES we don't know. I would put this note up myself but cannot edit this protected page. -- doofus-9 07:24, 29 May 2019 (UTC)


I made something. Please correct/add. We may want to say something about the format of the names of Indian sannyasins, like the use of "Bharti" ? --Sugit (talk) 08:29, 29 May 2019 (UTC)


I see i have started something that could get complicated. This is a good start you made but suggestions will have to wait for a bit . . . -- doofus-9 17:41, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
