Contents 1 Picture caption 2 Problems Encountered 3 2008 Sichuan earthquake 4 Further Problems Encountered

[edit] Picture caption

The caption for the picture is quite long (longer than the article itself--and it is still in smaller font!). Maybe it is worth moving the caption to the article's main text.

[edit] Problems Encountered

In the Problems Encountered section of this article, it talks about Li Beng. I wonder if this should be Li Bing or if it is someone else.

[edit] 2008 Sichuan earthquake

Two Kings Temple was damaged —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yuanyelele (talk • contribs) 07:05, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Was the irrigation system itself damaged? 204.52.215.107 (talk) 16:40, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Further Problems Encountered

In the following paragraph，should "Bi Ling" "Li Bing"?

Two Kings Temple Erwang or Two Kings Temple is located on the bank of the river at the foot of Mount Yulei. The original Wangdi Temple built in memory of an ancient Shu king was relocated and so locals renamed the temple here in honour of Bi Ling and his legendary son whom they had posthumously promoted to kings.[21] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.177.26.16 (talk) 16:12, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
