Should Ramayana links in MW be pointed to the Schlegel ed. for 1st & 2nd Kandas (as in PWG)? #151

Just by chance, seen theR. i, 34, 16 link at the entry "amara" and noted that it is linked to the Gorresio ed. which does not contain the referred word "amarī" at all! image

Then checked with PWG and seen that it is linked to the Schlegel ed., which does contain the word "amarī". image

I guess, MW links to R. i, xx, yy & R. ii, xx, yy should also be linked to the Schlegel ed. (as in PWG).

Reason being, MW has took the citations "as is" from the PW set (PWG and pwk), at almost all the places.

Yet another proof for a copycat. @funderburkjim agree!

Would you glance this once, and take action please?
