Talk:The Emperor's Nightingale

Title of the fairy tale
Even though the nightingale in the fairy tale is owned by an emperor, the English title is just The Nightingale (a direct translation of the Danish title Nattergalen), not The Emperor's Nightingale, as evidenced by these Google searches: Therefore, I moved the content of the page The Emperor's Nightingale to the page The Nightingale, turned the former into a redirect page, changed the links on other pages accordingly and did a similar thing on Wikisource.

IMDb lists a 1949 Czech stop-motion puppet animation of this fairy tale by the title of Cisaruv slavík. The title of the U.S. version, narrated by Boris Karloff, was The Emperor's Nightingale. It is not to be confused with the better-known Andersen tale The Emperor's New Clothes.
