Before election start on 25th, I would like to request community members to filter
out the names which has any objection from cultural, historical point of view. Please
NOTE: legal checks on names will be performed by the foundation which will be
done after the election.

The idea here is to filter out any cultural, historical objective names in advance to avoid
trademark check cost. And along with TC (who will check name criteria also), any
Community members can move such names to 'Proposed Names that do not meet the criteria'
section in below wiki with reasoning or bring it in this ML thread.
