Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was moved to Vat Phou. Terms appear approximately equal in Google hits when restricted to non-wiki English pages, so the official name should probably prevail. Oh, yeah, and nobody objected, either. :) --Aervanath (talk) 10:42, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This should be either Vat Phou in the Lao orthography used in the UNESCO listing and Laos itself. Wat Phu should be noted as an alternative spelling in the Thai-style orthography, but "Wat Phou" is neither fish nor fowl. Jpatokal (talk) 06:30, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support per correct spelling. Also, though Wat Phou dominates on google (not that that should be a criteria!), that is partly because of the wikipedia page. --Regent's Park (Rose Garden) 00:28, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect from Wat Phu[edit]

There appears to be a problem with the redirect from Wat Phu - important as this is how a lot of people, including major guide books, spell it. Not sure how to fix it otherwise I'd do it myself.Mattun0211 (talk) 04:21, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
