Haribhadra

અંગ્રેજી, હિન્દી અને ગુજરાતી વિકિપીડિયા ઉપર નિબંધ કે મહાનિબંધ લખવાનો મારો આ નમ્ર પ્રયાસ છે. રોજે રોજ થોડું થોડું લખીશ. વિકિપીડિયા ઉપર આચાર્ય હરિભદ્ર, आचार्य हरिभद्र & Haribhada નામનુ પેઝ કે પાનું છે. આ પેઝ કે પાના ઉપર જેમને માહિતી લખવી હોય એ પોતાનું નામ રજિસ્ટર કે રજિસ્ટર કર્યા વગર પણ મુકી શકે છે. લિ. વીકે વોરા... vkvora2001 (talk) 03:19, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Page-move

@Bishonen: can you move this page to "Haribhadra," per Cort (1998) p.11, and per Wiki-policy on no honorifics? Regards, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 06:26, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your note and for considering best practices for article titles. While "Acharya" is clearly an honorific that Wikipedia policy recommends omitting from titles, "sūri" is indeed a term traditionally used for accomplished Jain scholars but can also serve as a professional or technical designation rather than strictly an honorific.

In the case of Haribhadra, most academic sources and standard Jain usage refer to him as "Haribhadrasūri" to distinguish him from other historical figures named Haribhadra, and "sūri" serves almost as a monastic identifier. Therefore, changing the article title to "Haribhadrasūri"—omitting "Acharya"—balances both scholarly conventions and Wikipedia's guidance against honorifics, while retaining clarity and disambiguation.

I see. Yet, Cort, Chapple and Dundas all use Haribhadra. The name "Haribhadra" also seems to be used more common on Wikipedia, not "Haribhadrasuri." So, I'd prefer simply "Haribhadra." Regards, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 10:00, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
