Ashanthi De Alwis → Ashanthi – Known simply as "Ashanthi", and there are no other people with this as part of their name having Wikipedia articles. GeoffreyT2000 ^{(talk, contribs)} 17:17, 30 July 2017 (UTC)--Relisting. DrStrauss talk 18:50, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Revisit Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ashanthi most of the sources in the article are broken though a search does produce 1 book hit, a single mention in Continuum. If the article is kept then Ashanthi (Sri Lankan singer) would be okay, to avoid confusion with Ashanti (singer). In ictu oculi (talk) 19:22, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Move back to Ashanthi, which currently redirects to this article and was moved in 2015 by Mr. 1100100 (talk · contribs) who wrote nothing but the summary "Real name". — TheMagnificentist 13:59, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Certainly oppose the Ashanthia [only] option immediately above, since Ashanthi in books is just a variant of Ashanti with multiple meanings. Still support Ashanthi (Sri Lankan singer) as the best way of describing what this barely notable bio is about. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:31, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose most news sources use "Ashanthi de Alwis" so there does not appear to be sufficient reasoning to justify the proposed move however I would support an alternative move to Ashanthi (Sri Lankan singer), as suggested by In ictu oculi. Dan arndt (talk) 08:22, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
