What does Ar. indicate? If it is a title, we do not include those in author names.


message 63: by Jepranshu (new)

Jepranshu Aganivanshi | 10 comments Yes, Ar. is a title. If it's not possible than kindly merge them under 'Jepranshu Aganivanshi' only as both of them represent the same person. Thank you for all your time. : )

Emily | 17487 comments Swami is a title, is it their given name?
EDIT: We would not use it on Goodreads.

It will appropriate to write Swami. All books are available in Swami Dayananda Saraswati name only. Otherwise many will get confuse with another writer Dayanand Saraswati.

As I have explained before, We do not merge author names in different languages. Please see: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/... (See: Authors published in multiple languages)

We can maintain two separate pages without using the title. Which is Goodreads policy.
