replies: text: Guru Nanak →  – The Sanskrit religious title Guru is primarily used for Nanak by Sikhs, not all people commonly refer to him by using the prefix 'Guru'. Only Sikhs consider Nanak to be a 'guru', similarly Muslims consider Muhammad to be a Prophet, but we don't use 'Prophet Muhammad' here on Wikipedia, we simply have Muhammad. Christians consider Jesus to be a Christ, though we do not have Jesus Christ, we simply have Jesus. In the same manner, Sikhs consider Nanak to be Guru, but we should simply have Nanak, instead of Guru Nanak. A much more convincing argument would be WP:COMMONNAME. The Google Ngram results largely favor 'Nanak' over 'Guru Nanak'. The much-more reliable Google Scholars shows 48,800 results for Guru Nanak whereas a much larger 66,900 results for Nanak.

message: Please Put (“Shri Guru” (full name of Guru’s) and “Ji” in the last) and refer them with “They/them” instead of “He/She”. As they (Guru’s) are very respected in Sikh history and it can damage a lot of Sikh’s feelings by not paying them (Gurur’s) request. 2605:8D80:403:1BC1:BCF2:5E2B:4EC7:4244 (talk) 03:29, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: MOS:HONORIFIC is clear that we do not add "Shri", "Dev Ji", or the like to names. As for the gender of/pronouns for Guru Nanak, you would need to provide evidence that a preponderance of reliable sources treat the guru as plural or use the singular they for Guru Nanak. —C.Fred (talk) 03:40, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
