Janakur word comes from the name of King Janak. In ancient time the name of janakpur was Mithila. Later it was changed on the name of King "Janak". From their it became Janak + pur (the word "pur" means "Religious Place" ). So the word itself describe that Janakpur is the religious place where lots of ancient temples and other remarks are available. When any tourist will arrive in Janakpur below are the few places where they can visit and get more details about Janakpur.

Marked for changes:

This page needs to be reworked to remove the advertising and confusing wording inherent in it. An example would be the "Climate and Geology" section which talks about festivals for tourists, promoting them as the best in Nepal and India. Also, there are advertisements for free lodging. The article should therefore be rewritten in a more neutral point of view to provide a better look at Janakpurdham, instead of just tourist information.

Note: Though this city is important to the Hindu religion (it is important as a destination), the article itself contains few facts outside of festivals and free lodging for tourists.

Cleaned Up Page. Removed { advert } tag

I've tried cleaning up the article by removing most of the advertising-like statements. I've also removed the {advert} tag. If someone thinks that if there's anymore advertising-like material, please point it out and flag it. Kumar.kisalaya (talk) 18:35, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sub-metropolitian City

Janakpur has been the Sub-metropolitian city just now. Please upgrade. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.126.0.37 (talk) 09:28, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

barah bigha

It is established on 12 acres of land which is an open place with historical and cultral importance situated in the heart of Janakpur dham.It has it's nomenclature based on the geography. Though it is not properly looked after to restore its ancient values but recently a forum of local youths' loose forum, JYDF, has taken the charge of preserving and establishing its religious values and promote it as a hub of tourism beside Janaki temple, Bibah mandap and so on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.244.182.156 (talk) 17:58, 23 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 17 January 2022

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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. When arguments not based in policy (e.g. appeals to the official name) and canvassed !votes are discounted, it becomes clear that there's a consensus that the current title is the common name.

Janakpur → Janakpurdham – Janakpur has officially been renamed as Janakpurdham. This is printed in Nepal Gazzate which makes the name official.[1] It's been so long that this name has not been endorsed by Wikipedia.[2][3] I request all of you to add your perception here.

@Userkharani:, add your concern here than reverting edits and making Jankpurdham from Janakpur in every article.JayMithila (talk) 10:33, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I request not moving the page on your own. I request @Biplab Anand:, @Tulsi Bhagat:, @PANKAJ DEO: to come and comment here to get a sustainable solution.JayMithila (talk) 10:58, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Janakpur has been renamed as Janakpurdham. Userkharani (talk) 12:47, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – Media still refers it as Janakpur. [4] [5] Bada Kaji (talk • श्रीमान् गम्भीर) 13:42, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- The first source you mentioned 'Onlinekhabar' has used both. While look at some other notable sources too - The Kathmandu Post, Khabarhub, Myrepublica, etc. are using "Janakpurdham" so I am not convinced with your oppose. Kind regards, — Tulsi Bhagat ^{[ contribs | talk ]} 08:24, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - If you use Google Search: Janakpur has about 6,000,000 results and Janakpurdham has about 400,000 results. Yes, some sources use Janakpurdham but Janakpur is still the common name. See Asian News International The Annapurna Express EastMojo Khabarhub The Kathmandu Post Myrepublica Bada Kaji (talk • श्रीमान् गम्भीर) 13:40, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support – We have to rely on government official documents and websites rather than online media. The municipality website shows the name as 'Janakpudham'. IMO, Janakpurdham is more soundable to use after the official announcement and to avoid the confusion between Janakpur and Janakpurdham.--Biplab Anand (Talk) 15:14, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- No we don't. See WP:OFFICIALNAME and WP:COMMONNAME. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:32, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support Userkharani (talk) 03:35, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, I am in favour of this move. I share same opinion as Biplab ji. Kind regards, — Tulsi Bhagat ^{[ contribs | talk ]} 03:44, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose on available evidence. We go by WP:COMMONNAME and Bada Kaji makes that case, while others don't. Usedtobecool ☎️ 13:28, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I know we go by WP:COMMONNAME. In the beginning, the word 'Janakpurdham' was used by the government and different writers of that era Nepal Press Report and The History of Janakpurdham. One can see the page move of this article- Page creation, Move log, Move log, and Move log. After the creation of zones in Nepal, The word 'Janakpur' gets more attention. IMO, It's like Chandranigahapur which is now changed to Chandrapur has shorter and easy to use name 'Chapur'. I still think Janakpurdham is suitable title for this article. Thanks--Biplab Anand (Talk) 16:52, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The blatant CANVASSING that has occurred here is troubling. I ask that the closer discount !votes from the canvassed editors even if their rationales are amended to no longer contradict policy. Usedtobecool ☎️ 13:28, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Still its common name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:31, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
