[edit] Man in the Moon

I changed "on" to "in" to reflect the most common phrasing of the idea; I think this is important because "in" reflects personification of X and "on" reflects habitation of X. My other minor edits are just cleanup. Geo.per 02:04, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Chang'e (mythology)Chang'e — The goddess is the primary meaning of the name "Chang'e", and is what the name actually originates from. All other stuff on the dab page are actually named after the goddess. (This will require the current Chang'e to be moved to Chang'e (disambiguation) ) —supernorton 09:56, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
