Gaja Baja
- ... that Film Development Board of Nepal rejected Gaja Baja to be produced as the title contained the word marijuana? Source: What’s in a name? "In a ridiculous decision, the Film Development Board (FDB) of Nepal has withheld the approval of upcoming movie Gajabaja"
- Reviewed: 28 Liberty Street
Created by CAPTAIN MEDUSA (talk). Self-nominated at 19:45, 21 May 2020 (UTC).
I checked the sources, did some cleanup on the article, and am ready to review. However, I'm still not sure about the relationship of the word gaja to marijuana. Is it a Nepali slang term, an English slang term, a direct translation? It isn't at the exhaustive list of names for cannabis, list of slang names for cannabis or glossary of cannabis terms. I suppose it could be a variation of ganja, but that's only a guess. wikt:gaja doesn't include that meaning. I think we need to be mindful of how this is worded in the hook. What would you think of "because the title alluded to marijuana?" Or if you can find another source for it, that'd be great. – Reidgreg (talk) 15:35, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- Found it on Google books in Oxford Dictionary of Foreign Words and International Poisonous Plants Checklist. The latter gives it as a common name for cannabis/marijuana. Possibly add it and tweak the hook accordingly. I think cannabis is the preferred (formal) name on Wikipedia. – Reidgreg (talk) 15:54, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

- ALT0a: ... that the Film Development Board of Nepal rejected the production of Gaja Baja because the title alluded to marijuana?
- Marijuana can be translated as gaja or ganja but the correct term is ganja. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 12:30, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
