Sambhajinagar or Sambhaji Nagar

The IP users above have requested both names. The new name has to be mentioned in the body, and only one can be used. Right now both are used. Which is the official version? Venkat TL (talk) 09:12, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer the former. Usually in other cities' names, a space is not used before "Nagar". Compare Srinagar. Khestwol (talk) 13:39, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Khestwol that is not true. There are many cities that have space before Nagar. Speaking from experience. See #Questions section. Venkat TL (talk) 17:12, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sambhaji Nagar is official name Aniket chobe (talk) 16:18, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Done — DaxServer (t · m · c) 14:18, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Respected, this is the new name for this city for the time being. The process of renaming the entire district to Chatrapati Sambhajinagar is still pending. When the revenue and forest department as well as the urban development department issues a notification, the name of the entire district, taluka, municipality and municipality will also change. The process of this has also started in respect of the district. Until then keep the page safe so peace prevails, Thanks in advance. :⁠-⁠) Cancersign9 (talk) 14:45, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

About renaming Aurangabad to Sambhaji Nager.

For the time being, none of the contributors should change the name of the Aurangabad Wikipedia page, because so far the approval has been received from the central government to change the name of this district/city, but the process of becoming Chatrapati Sambhaji Nagar is still pending. Wikipedia runs by rules, have patience for it. Thank you. Cancersign9 (talk) 14:19, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Name changed by Gov of Maharashtra, the article name should be renamed.

Hello, the name of the town is now officially renamed, so I suggest admin @David notMD: to rename it as Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (छत्रपती संभाजीनगर) per GOM's notice dated 24 February 2023. I suggest to make a redirect from Aurangabad and Sambhajinagar to Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. REF and Give notice - [1] Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 05:56, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rock Stone Gold Castle - We use the WP:COMMONNAME in English, that our world-wide readership recognises, not the WP:OFFICIALNAME as the titles of our articles, and we don't use Indic script as per WP:NOINDICSCRIPT.
At some point in the future, the common name, as recognised by English speakers across the world, may change, and then, but only then, we will change the article title. As examples, we still use Bangalore, although the official name changed to Bengalūru in 2006, and I'm sure that we will never use Wien as the capital of Osterreich. - Arjayay (talk) 10:07, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change the Title to Chatrapati Sambhaji Nagar 103.232.11.36 (talk) 17:01, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As per the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) approved the proposal and said the central government had no objection to changing the names of both districts of Maharashtra including Aurangabad and Osmanabad. The Centre on 24 February 2023 approved the renaming of two Maharashtra cities - Aurangabad and Osmanabad. Aurangabad will now be renamed as `Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar' while Osmanabad will be called `Dharashiv'. So my humble request you to Change the name of Aurangabad to "Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar".

 Already done Please see the first sentence. For the article title, it is governed by our article title policy — DaxServer (t · m · c) 09:25, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

official_name, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar change to Aurangabad. pushpin_label, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar change to Aurangabad.

[1] Farhanzamo (talk) 21:02, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Partly done I have changed the pushpin label back to Aurangabad, but AFAIK the "official" name is currently correct, pending resolution of the court case aimed at reverting it - although we will continue to use the WP:Common Name whatever the outcome - Arjayay (talk) 21:10, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Bombay HC is hearing the petitioner on 27th March, 2023 which means the issue is still controversial and pending. Farhanzamo (talk) 21:12, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but it is not up to us to predict the outcome of that hearing. If the court reverts the renaming, we will obviously change the official name, but until then, we stick with the current legal name. - Arjayay (talk) 21:15, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Although the center government has given the go-ahead to change the name, it is not yet an official name. The process is going to take time until it becomes an official name. The government offices and all the municipalities are still working to make it official, and it has not been implemented in any government activities yet. It's premature to change it on Wikipedia, in my opinion. Farhanzamo (talk) 19:54, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Farhanzamo: I see sources [2] [3] stating the cities were renamed. I don't see anything that says more process is still pending and that this is not yet official — DaxServer (t · m · c) 21:16, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: It says in the lead section that it is officially known as Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar however the title will not be changed for now as per WP:COMMONNAME.
