Milos Sekulic → Miloš Sekulić – Per WP:SERBIANNAMES, with diacritics is the preferred style. Rovingrobert (talk) 12:33, 22 May 2016 (UTC) -- Relisting. Anarchyte (work | talk) 12:21, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose for now, pending evidence that his name is spelled this way at least fairly routinely in English-language sources, and that the subject himself uses this spelling in Swedish. Swedish people, like Americans and Canadians (e.g. Stana Katic, not "Katić", do not routinely use Balkan diacritics in their names, even if proudly of Balkan descent. I'd be all for it if the subject prefers it and least some English sources recognize that he does so. Whether a particular sports governing body jingoistically drops all diacritics from everyone's name is, of course, irrelevant to the question (we've been over that many times). — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 16:31, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose, per WP:DIACRITICS. SERBIANNAMES is only a proposal. It's about transliteration from Cyrillic; Sports writing has its own conventions. The sources in the article don't use diacritics, and the nom hasn't provided any examples. Fernando Danger (talk) 17:13, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
