Wrong Category
editI've removed Category:Hijra (South Asia) from the main article. There is no proof that the character belonged that category. At best, because some context, Category:Transgender topics and religion is valid. --Muzammil (talk) 09:22, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
Devanagari + Romanization of the final consonant
editCurrently the infobox gives the Devanagari
as इरावान्
, the Sanskrit transliteration
as Irāvāṇ
, and the Tamil
as அரவான்
. The final letter in the Sanskrit, न, which refers to a dental nasal, is transliterated in the IAST as n, not ṇ; the latter is used for ण, the retroflex nasal. The final character in the Tamil script, however, is ன், the alveolar nasal, usually Romanized as ṉ, and sometimes (inconsistently) transliterated into Devanagari as ऩ but more commonly just as न, i.e. the usual dental nasal. I am not super familiar with Tamil, so I am not sure what the correct thing to do here is, but it seems that the current Sanskrit Romanization is certainly wrong; it should be Irāvān. However, maybe a Tamil transliteration should be included too, with ṉ? What do you all think? Pinging @Redtigerxyz as one of the main contributors to the article.
