  • Move to Malaysian Gujaratis or Gujaratis in Malaysia The phrase "Gujarati Malaysian(s)" (whether singular or plural) does not appear in any sources cited in the article. A Google search on "Gujarati Malaysian" [1] gives only one passing use of this phrase in a reliable source [2]; other hits are either unattributed Wikipedia mirrors or coincidental occurrences of "Gujarati, Malaysian" next to each other. Of the few WP:RS about this topic, some use the reverse order "Malaysian Gujaratis" [3][4][5] (which would be WP:CONSISTENT with Malaysian Indians and Malaysian Malayali), or just use a WP:DESCRIPTIVE form like "Gujaratis in Malaysia" [6][7]. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 09:23, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
