:Nikollë Bojaxhiu → {{no redirect|Nikola Bojaxhiu}} – I propose that this page be renamed to 'Nikola Bojaxhiu', in line with WP:COMMONNAME. Overwhelmingly, independent and reliable English-language sources refer to him as 'Nikola' and not 'Nikollë'.

  • Oppose Some users don't spell his name correctly in Albanian, that's not a reason to move the article to another version just because some foreign authors can't be bothered to use Albanian spelling correctly. Botushali (talk) 12:29, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Oppose There are many other English sources that use the correct spelling, Nikollë (Nikolle, Nikolla). A few sources that use Nikola do not prove a WP:COMMONNAME case. Uniacademic (talk) 18:38, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Oppose There are sources that misspell it as "Nikola", and there are others that write it as it was, Nikolle (some examples [https://books.google.com/books?id=ilJQEAAAQBAJ&pg=PT44&dq=Nikoll%C3%AB+Bojaxhiu&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjV-bvI6oT2AhUOHuwKHcYdBBkQ6AF6BAgEEAI#v=onepage&q=Nikoll%C3%AB%20Bojaxhiu&f=false][https://books.google.com/books?id=Pcxqzal4bEYC&pg=PA673&dq=Nikoll%C3%AB+Bojaxhiu&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjV-bvI6oT2AhUOHuwKHcYdBBkQ6AF6BAgDEAI#v=onepage&q=Nikoll%C3%AB%20Bojaxhiu&f=false][https://books.google.com/books?id=ltglAQAAIAAJ&q=Nikoll%C3%AB+Bojaxhiu&dq=Nikoll%C3%AB+Bojaxhiu&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjV-bvI6oT2AhUOHuwKHcYdBBkQ6AF6BAgJEAI][https://books.google.com/books?id=W9o9aArk-XwC&pg=PP3&dq=Nikoll%C3%AB+Bojaxhiu&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjV-bvI6oT2AhUOHuwKHcYdBBkQ6AF6BAgKEAI#v=onepage&q=Nikoll%C3%AB%20Bojaxhiu&f=false]).

Irrelevant quote

Why is this quote on this article? It has nothing to do with Nikolle Bojaxhiu.

"Mother Teresa had once said: “By blood, I am Albanian. By citizenship, an Indian. By faith, I am a Catholic nun. As to my calling, I belong to the world. As to my heart, I belong entirely to the heart of Jesus.”" 2600:1700:BC01:9B0:8C7A:7D97:56E1:BF7F (talk) 00:54, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
