2167:"This has been discussed as part of a Requested move earlier. First of all, "Peruvudaiyar" is neither "correct" nor "authentic" name: the temple's builder did not call it that. Secondly, even before Knowledge was launched, Brihadisvara or its variants were used as the most common name of the temple in the English language: if you have a problem with WP:COMMONNAME, feel free to discuss in on that talk page. Lastly, even the government sources - both that of Tamil Nadu and the Centre use Brihadisvara or its variants on their English pages." Post the authentic source and then call the name you want. I don't know why people trying to mask the heritage we carry with their own delusional thinks because of their ignorance. 1892: 2506: 2246: 1693: 1596: 2635: 989:, I have just gone through the history of the page. I saw the page was initially created as Brihadisvara Temple, which was later renamed to Brihadeeswara temple. I don't think any discussion happened over this at that time. It would also be better if we can go through page move history. I would also suggest to stick to RS and rename page to Brihadisvara or Brihadeshvara. But just for information- I saw news articles about the temple used all the three spellings Brihadisvara/Brihadeeswara/Brihadeeswarar. 200: 562: 1511: 526: 1943: 349: 2591: 2459: 2198: 1645: 1548: 1421: 397: 271: 233: 257: 450: 423: 191: 281: 460: 760:
The lead section says that Peruvudayar Temple is the world's "first complete granite temple". The claim is sourced to an Indian government website, but it's a list of trivial facts with no detail, and I don't think the fact-checking was very careful. (The page says, for instance, that Varanasi is the

Also, your logic is circular and bad. If the great Knowledge perpetuates "Briahblah blah" word, then more people will be reading and searching for that name. How can you claim now that the other names of the temples is lower usage and Brihablah blah is of higher usage? Of course, every time people

The Temple is located in the state of Tamil Nadu, built by the Tamil king. I don't understand the logic that "Because this is English Knowledge, ...". Shouldn't it be called by the correct name attested to by the Government of India and Tamil Nadu. It does not make any sense that just because the

The lead section claims that Brihadeeswar temple is the largest temple in the world. The claimed source is not in public domain and the fact cannot be verified. However, it is a well known fact that larger temples exist, or in other words, Brihadeeswar temple is not the largest of the temples. For

Exactly. 'Peruvudaiyar koil' or 'Peruvudaiyar temple' is the correct name to call and why this name is always masked and calling in that peculiar alien word. Everyone in Tamil nadu is known only by the name Periya koil (big temple). Also from 2015 onwards this temple suddenly getting a new name

The term 'Brihadiswara' temple and all its other forms are tantamount to cultural appropriation. There are no sanskrit inscriptions at this temple. It's not locally referred to as 'Brihadiswara' temple, but rather as 'Rajarajeswaram' or as 'Peruvudaiyar' temple. This new sanskritized naming is

I agree that the name in more reliable sources, such as scholarly books/journal articles should be preferred. Thinknirmal's move seems to have been undiscussed. You can wait a couple of days for others to contribute to this discussion, and make a bold move if no one opposes your suggestion.
