- Merge to Devanagari#Transliteration Mostly unsourced WP:OR with doubtful independent notability. Searches turn up primarily nonWP:RS with the occasional academic proposal (no completed studies, apparently). Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 21:29, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
- Very selective merge to Devanagari transliteration; there don't appear to be any references, but some of the information may be useful. I note that User:Pare Mo suggested this merge in [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Romanagari&diff=next&oldid=713800870 April 2016], but no discussion came from it. 'Devanagari transliteration' may need better sources, but it does have 21 footnotes and a mess of external links. Merging to Devanagari might make the section unbalanced.

- Comment: It seems [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Romanagari&type=revision&diff=656844094&oldid=655821281 some one else earlier tried to nominate article for deletion] but some one else removed that notice without citing any reason.

::In principle anyone who objects to deletion can remove a {{tl|Proposed deletion}} tag. The {{tl|Article for deletion}} tag initiates a discussion like this one, and it should not be removed until the discussion runs its course. But of course best practice is to provide at least an edit summary when removing a PROD. The editor who removed that one appears to be an indefinitely blocked sock puppet.

- Weak delete. While Google just gives <1000 hits, I notice the term is used in some books decades old ([https://www.google.co.kr/search?q=Romanagari&oq=Romanagari&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=Romanagari&tbm=bks&*]). Few low quality hits on Google Scholar ([http://home.iitk.ac.in/~hrishirt/cs671/project/slides.pdf]). News coverage at [http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/-romanagari--can-form-system-for-language-learning/1105393/], through that newspaper is hardly quality. I am not sure if this is a notable concept, two notable topics merged into one, or just some (sic!) noise, since I am not a linguist. However, given the pre-Internet reference, the article claims "a slang word coined by bloggers", and the general poorly referenced state of the article, I think this may require WP:TNT. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:52, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
