Maybe Amitābha can be kept as a romanisation of Sanskrit अमिताभ (amitābha) instead of being an English entry, just like the entries in Category:Chinese romanizations, Category:Transliterations of Sanskrit terms, etc. --YURi (talk) 02:58, 13 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

If it's attestable in English (and I suspect it will be), then it's fine as it is. I agree with Stephen that the version without the macron may be more common in English, in which case the version with the macron can be transformed into the alternative form of that word. — Cheers, JackLee talk 03:18, 13 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Unless there are any objections I think we can consider this one passed. — SMUconlaw (talk) 16:56, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
