Talk:Phra That Si Song Rak

Untitled
Editorial decisions:

There are many different Anglicized spellings of Phra That Si Song Rak, both on the web and throughout WikiPedia. The one I finally used as title of the article is the one string that returned the most hits on Google. Ditto for Ho Phra Keo Museum in Vientiane.

Also, I cannot get sources to agree on the height of the tower. Half of the sources say 20 meters, the other half say 30 meters. I could not determine a set of more authoritative sources agreeing one way.

Either of these above issues are open for correction. (Please. :) )

I also cannot determine the location of the "Man River". Closest river that appears on maps is Mae Nam Pa Sak.

Oh, there are also differing translations of the name. I chose the one that seemed most related to the tower's history.

Barf. There apparently is also some dispute as to who actually built the stupa. The article at Sourigna Vongsa has it differently. That is, if we're both talking about the same stupa in Dan Sai, Loei, commemorating a peace between two kingdoms. KeithTyler 21:17, May 28, 2004 (UTC)
