First: ISO 639 is not authoritative on _names_ of languages, only on the codes.

Then I thought, Divehi instead of Dhivehi would be correct, since also other
sources identify it as Divehi, for example
http://www.ethnologue.com/show_language.asp?code=div, and the MS-Windows
Regional Settings list Divehi.

But in Wikipedia, Divehi redirects to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhivehi_language, and also the native language
Wikipedia http://dv.wikipedia.org/ calls it Dhivehi.

On Google, Divehi leads to 113000 hits, whereas Dhivehi has 194000 hits. Seems
both are used, but Dhivehi is preferred.

Now I'm confused. I tend more to keeping the Dhivehi entry.

Any other oppinions on this?
