I cleaned up this entry, but am unsure whether it even exists (furthermore, I guessed the language (Hindi), on the grounds that she is a Hindu goddess). From the limited research that I have conducted, it looks plausible, but may be more commonly spelt Dhanalakshmi. Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 20:35, 6 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

http://books.google.com/books?q=Dhanalaxmi&as_brr=0&hl=en has about 35. Seems plausible in this spelling, to me. --Connel MacKenzie 17:52, 3 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
I've added the only Google book quote that makes any use, for the wrong def. (name of the goddess), though I'm not sure what language I'm supposed to be citing in. DAVilla 19:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
I’ve just thought: as Hindi isn’t written in the Roman alphabet, and as Dhanalaxmi is a proper noun, allegedly referring unto a dialect spoken in Southern India, in all probability, this is an English word, albeït a chiefly Indian one. I shall change the language accordingly. Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 20:22, 4 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
I have looked for "Dhanalaxmi language" and "Dhanalaxmi dialect" on Google. The only references I find are to ourselves. Have deleted the definition relating to dialect and left her as a Hindi Goddess. Rfv removed. Andrew massyn 18:56, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
