Talk:Theophanes the Cretan

Comments
Is he the same as Theophanis Strelitzas (Θεοφάνης Στρελίτζας)? I suspect yes. Johnbod 15:49, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, he is. Possible renames:


 * 1) "Theophanis Strelitzas " ghits 186


 * 2)"Theophanes Strelitzas " ghits 234


 * 3)"Theophanes of Crete" ghits 130 - with "i" only 3. Gscholar 3


 * 4) "Theophanes the Cretan" ghits 453 and with "i" 2,000 , Gscholar 0

- apparently standard in Greek, but sounds a little odd in English I think.

Also the Getty list preferred name: (with an "e"), so I think we should go with that.

any thoughts? All should be set up as redirects anyway (but after a decision I think)Johnbod 18:08, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

It seems to me that Theophanes the Cretan is the most appropriate name, as it is the most accurate translation (from a Greek bibliography point of view). I totally agree with the redirects as well Ipodamos

Seems in fact to be T the Greek, so I have removed.
