The result of the proposal was no move as primary topic already in destination location. Keith D (talk) 13:25, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kalyan (disambiguation) → Kalyan — More than one place with this name (as well as people), plain name as disambiguation. Pahari Sahib 08:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support Straightforward. Skinsmoke (talk) 15:17, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Kalyan, India is a city of 1.5 million. Kalyan, Pakistan and Kalyan, Nepal are both stubs about villages. No other article could take the name Kalyan. Station1 (talk) 21:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This seems to support WP:COMMONNAME usage (more references would certainly help, by the way), which is recommended by WP:DAB.

Note on moves

On 22 February 2012, an editor, seemingly unaware of the discussion above, moved this disambiguation page to Kalyan, and the article on the Indian city to Kalyan, India. Kalyan was redirected to Kalyan, India shortly after, wiping the disambiguation page. I requested that the move be reverted at Wikipedia:Requested moves, and so the pages was moved back yesterday. --Joshua Issac (talk) 10:22, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
