Renamed because it was previously named after the anti-Muslim 969 Movement and I found that inappropriate. I proposed a few alternative names on the Discord and “kingfisher comma” was the clear favourite so kingfisher it is :)

The name ''buddhisma'' was named by [[User:Xenllium|Xenllium]] in 2023. It refers to the [[wikipedia:969 Movement|969 Movement]], which is a Buddhist nationalist movement opposed to what they see as Islam's expansion in predominantly-Buddhist Myanmar. The three digits of 969 "symbolize the virtues of the Buddha, Buddhist practices and the Buddhist community". The first 9 stands for the nine special attributes of the Buddha and the 6 for the six special attributes of his Dharma, or Buddhist Teachings, and the last 9 represents the nine special attributes of Buddhist Sangha (monastic community). Those special attributes are the Three Jewels of the Buddha.
The kingfisher comma was first described by [[User:Xenllium|Xenllium]] in 2023, but the name ''kingfisher comma'' was given by [[Budjarn Lambeth]] in 2025. It refers ''LEGO Icons'' model #10331, the ''Kingfisher Bird''.
 
969 / 968 = 1.0010331 (to 7 decimal places).
