Hi,

I have reverted a series of consecutive edits by user "Bgo eiu" to the 
"Names" page on the Wiki. I felt that these edits were, in their 
entirety, too far-reaching to be made without an explicit community 
consensus.

The edits I have reverted include:

* far-reaching changes to the "avoid transliterations" section, 
including changing the title to "avoid uninformed transliterations", and 
changing the logic from "transliterations are unwanted, except in some 
cases" to "transliterations are widely accepted and used, and only 
become an issue when uninformed or machine generated"

* the removal of an explicit request to not add name:xx tags duplicating 
the original name tag

I am not saying these edits were entirely wrong, I just felt they were 
too bold to be made without a discussion here.

Bye
Frederik
