The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. There is no consensus for move, also WP:NCIN and WP:NCP indicate titles generally shouldn't be used. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 19:38, 14 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sahajananda → Swami Sahajananda — Relisted. --rgpk (comment) 17:29, 3 February 2011 (UTC) In keeping with other articles on Hindu sannyasins. I would have moved it myself, but the page already exists as a redirect. --Devadaru (talk) 13:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Comment - his most common title appears to be Sri Swami Sahajananda. — Amakuru (talk) 13:41, 25 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

"Sri" is generally omitted in Wikipedia articles, considered as an honorific, while "Swami" is now being included. There was some discussion about this at Talk:Swami_Bhaskarananda_Saraswati, and also previously at Talk:Swami Vivekananda (somewhere in the archives, I suspect).—Devadaru (talk) 14:07, 25 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. We avoid using religious honorifics whenever possible because of unavoidable neutrality issues. In this case, as with most people titled "swami", the title is avoidable. — Gavia immer (talk) 05:03, 14 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
