[edit] Requested move

[edit] Survey

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
  • Support as idiom. Temple of Sun is not English; if it were, it would be Sun, the surname, not the astronomical body. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:55, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Temple of Earth is acceptable, although not absolutely required; Earth, like Erda, can be a proper name. Temple of Mars would be mandatory, if the Chinese had a cult of the planets. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment Temple of the Sun currently redirects to Prisoners of the Sun, the translation of the original French title of a book. JPG-GR (talk) 05:18, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Support move to the plain title, with a redirect link at the top for Tintin. Dekimasuよ! 06:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
