Requested move 22 September 2015
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: no consensus. No agreement about whether there's a
primary topic or not, so we default to the status quo, which means leaving this page where it is.
Ikshvaku (Hinduism) will be moved back to
Ikshvaku.

Note. I closed this as moved because it had been unopposed for several weeks, but it has been contested on my talk page so I'm re-opening it and giving it a relist.

Oppose. I don't believe there is a genuine need for disambiguation.
Rishabha is a common name, and the alternative name Ikshvaku that he is supposed to have had is not well-sourced. In fact, there are Jaina texts that say that Rishabha was born in the Ikshvaku dynasty of Ayodhya.[1] The collection edited by Wendy Doniger[2] has over 20 mentions of Rsabha but no occurrence of Ikshvaku. So, I don't think there is a genuine problem here. On the other hand, moving
Ikshvaku to a disambiguation page will create a lot of problems within Wikipedia because there are some 40 wikilinks to it, and perhaps more will appear in future. -
