In Hindi wikipedia, including devanagari numerals in title apparently creates a spoof check, ultimately disallowing creation of the page. The reason says that the formatting of title falls under "blacklisted entry", which <quote>Disallows five consecutive characters that are not letters (in any script), numbers, or spaces</quote>. Therefore, a title containing 5 or more devanagari numerals are not created. Similar, 4 or more devanagari numerals clubbed with other common characters like (, ), comma etc are not created. A common usage is appending year at the end of title under brackets. Try this - http://hi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=दुर्गा पूजा (२०१२)&action=edit

Devanagari numerals are widely used in India among hindi, marathi and sanskrit speakers. I would request to include the devanagari numerals permanently into the title creation text charater set.
