[edit] Name

Should this be called Panthalassa or Panthalassa Ocean? I just redirected the latter to the former, as the former is more mature. But our other ancient oceans are named as Tethys Ocean and Iapetus Ocean. Is the former name more commonly used, or should we move the article to the latter, for symmetry with its ancient buddies? -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 21:09, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
