Wikipedia talk:Maldivian Wikipedians' notice board

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've also noticed that we frequently use the term "of the Maldives". I think it should be "of Maldives". For example "The Constitution of Maldives" or "Constitution of Maldives", "The Majlis of Maldives", instead of "Majlis of the Maldives". N3m6 21:00, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Naming conventions

I've noticed a number of names using apostrophes. It can be easily avoided and usually people don't use them. For example Muhammad Shamsuddeen was written as Muhammad Shamsu'deen. You can avoid the ' by using two d's while romanizing. N3m6 20:09, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Then we should introduce a naming conventinos for bios, in notice board. Why dont we agree on some standards? --Oblivious 20:12, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Maldivian Honours System

Does anyone have any information about the Maldivian Honours System, which would be of interest to people from British Commonwealth countries, given the fact that the Maldive Islands is a full member of the British Commonwealth? - (Aidan Work)

Note: It has not been the British Commonwealth since 1949. It is now the Commonwealth of Nations. Hu 07:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
