editThe correct spelling of Air Vice marshall Amarasekera and the name under which he is best known is " Rohan Amarasekera" and not Edward Amerasakera. Hence suggest redirection. Fattutor (talk) 14:57, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
- Do you have a verifiable reliable source for that assertion? — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 14:58, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
Suggest the best method of arbitration is a google search under each spelling and the number of hits about Air Vice Marshall Amarasekera in Sri Lankan press and particularly airforce websites which I belive will give a more accurate indication of correct spelling. Secondly its a matter fwhich could be put to Sri Lankan wikipedians. Nowhere is he referred to as "Edward Amarasekera" in Sri Lankan press or airforce documents in the public domain. In my opinion the title spelling is a typo as the text of the page reverts to correct spelling. Unfortunately one possible conclusion is that the secondary literature from the wikipedia has propogated the incorrect spelling. A tribute to the impact and influence of wikipedia which in this case has been detrimental to the cause of accuracy, a quality so important in an encyclopedia. If there is any way that the page can be renamed that would be the ideal solution. Fattutor (talk) 09:08, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
