Incorrect title

[edit]

Per WP:COMMONNAME, this article should probably be called something like Dalel Singh (volleyball player). I suspect that the present title has much to do with caste-ism. For example, a GBooks search shows 1 mention of DSR versus 6 using "Dalel Singh"

Alas, there are so many mirrors etc when using the general GSearch that it is extremely difficult to analyse, but the single source currently in the article (& seen in the GBooks result above) also calls him Dalel Singh. Are there any official records available for Indian volleyball? Or for the Arjuna award? - Sitush (talk) 15:20, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that he does appear to self-identify as Dalel Singh Chauhan, eg: here. That name also appears in some news sources, eg: here and here. - Sitush (talk) 15:26, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
