A note on the title

[edit]

I had debated whether to go with Pandavalila, Pandava Lila, Pandava Nritya, Pandav Nritya and in the end settled on 'Pandav Lila' per WP:COMMONNAME, as it appeared the most number of times in scholarly sources. A bit weirdly, William Sax, whose book has been cited, has himself been inconsistent in usage and has noted it as Pandavalila, Pandava Lila or Pandav Lila in various places (journal articles etc.). So, I looked to other academics' usage and found a consensus on Pandav Lila, and therefore went with that. Also, I feel anyone not too familiar with the language would search it using this phrase, so it will be helpful for them too. Thanks, CallMeByYourMane (talk) 10:48, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
