[edit] Proposed move to Panini (grammarian)
- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
I have requested that this article be moved to "Panini (grammarian)" and that "Panini" be redirected to "Panini (disambiguation)". Please give your opinions. Petecarney 12:11, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
- We don't normally redirect pages from "X" to "X (disambiguation)" (see WP:MDP). Thus, the request is effectively to move Panini (disambiguation) to Panini, having moved the current Panini to Panini (grammarian). --Stemonitis 14:04, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
- Support Panini to Panini (grammarian) and Panini (disambiguation) to Panini. Too many uses and sandwich might be the primary use. Vegaswikian 04:29, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Support Panini to Panini (grammarian) and Panini (disambiguation) to Panini per Vegaswikian. — AjaxSmack 06:33, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

This article has been renamed from Panini to Panini (grammarian) as the result of a move request. --Stemonitis 07:33, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
If not at Panini, this article should reside at Pāṇini. Panini should still redirect here. The sandwich correctly resides at Panino. dab (𒁳) 08:12, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "traditional date"
doing a literature search, I fail to find any source that would establish a traditional date for Panini of 520-460 BC. Lots of shoddy websites have it, to be sure (and there is no telling how many got it from Wikipedia), but no WP:RS. I am removing this pending citation. My suspicion is that the 520 BC date arose from speculation that Panini must date to after Darius' invasion. This would qualify not as a "traditional date" at all, but as a misunderstood scholarly estimate of a terminus post quem. If I am missing something, please do cite this "tradition". dab (𒁳) 10:58, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
