To be deleted

edit

This entry is an abomination. It is a clearly non-grammatical form of addhānamagga, namely addhānamaghgha - aspirated consonants do not geminate. Furthermore, there is no attestation for the entry. What is the process for deleting this entry? The entries for the implicitly allegedly attested forms of addhānamagga will have to be updated to remove the reference to this misspelling. -- RichardW57 (talk) 08:00, 6 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

@RichardW57: We have WT:RFD and {{rfd}}. —Suzukaze-c 08:04, 6 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
I'm not sure that they can handle the cross-linkage - there are also entries for the word in Sinhalese, Burmese, Thai and Khmer script versions. One solution would be to remove this word from the invocations of {{pi-alt}} in their entries, so that they would reference the spelling अद्धानमग्ग, and then mark this entry for deletion. Another solution is to simply rename this entry to अद्धानमग्ग. However, I can only find 3 non-dictionary entries on the Web for the Devanagari spelling as a Pali word, and they're just different locations in the same edition of the Tipitaka, which may well be a conversion of an edition compiled in a different script. -- RichardW57m (talk) 12:43, 6 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
Listing all of them simultaneously is fine. The other spellings could be udner a sub-header. —Suzukaze-c 06:39, 7 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
