[edit] Name

Is "Iximché" or "Iximche" more proper in line with the Mesoamerica project's guidelines of using Maya language accenting for Mayan language names? -- Infrogmation 21:50, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Per the current guidelines the title would be without the accent, which in this case reflects spanish orthographical rules- however the placename has a Mayan lang. origin. I'll move it.--cjllw | TALK 12:38, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I wanted to add:

In March of 2006 Iximche by US president George Bush. This was seen as confrontational by the local populace and their spiritual leaders clensed the site afterwards to restore peace and harmbony.

It's as neutral as I can make it, but I still think it's too bitchy to put in.
