[edit] English title

This page should probably be moved (renamed) to the translated English title of the book, in accordance with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English), which says, "If you are talking about a person, country, town, movie or book, use the most commonly used English version of the name for the article [...]" The English title, according to the references here, and a Google search, appears to be Colloquies on the Simples and Drugs of India (using English-language conventions for capitalization). This is a very interesting article about what looks like a fascinating text, and I'm glad the author added it. Any comments on the renaming issue? --MCB 00:34, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. I have a personal preference for using original titles for books. I hadn't actually checked the Wikipedia naming conventions on this. They overrule me, and that's fine. Go ahead and rename it! Best wishes Andrew Dalby 12:55, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
