Talk:Xt'Tapalatakettle

Isn't "Xt'Tapalatakettle" supposed to be spelled "Xt'Tapalataketl"? I'm pretty Olmec names didn't have word spellings like "kettle." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.7.250.98 (talk • contribs)

My thoughts exactly. Should I move it?--Fox Mccloud 21:41, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

 * "Xt'Tapalatakettle" is taken from "The Simpsons: A Complete Guide to Our Favorite Family" ISBN 0060952520 --John Hubbard 03:14, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Got this from the Simpsons Comic story list, also on Wikipedia...

It stays. --Black King 08:59, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure on the DVD captioning for this episode, they spell Xt......much differently. I'll check it later. Ultrabasurero 18:42, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

After watching Blood Feud and rewinding the part in question a bunch of times, I know for a fact that this spelling is wrong. Burns' version of the name isn't even the same as the version here. It is supposed to be "tapalapa" not "tapalata" as shown. The DVD captioning also spells it as Xtapalapaquetl. I would think the DVD captioning would have more precedence over the non-canon comic books. Ultrabasurero 22:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

The Rock?
Re: The first sentence of the article - is Xt'Tapalatakettle the name of the ROCK? or the name of the GOD? I was under the impression it's the latter, in which case the sentence needs to be changed to reflect that. TheHYPO 06:19, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I recall Burns stating it is the god of war. Perhaps we should just rename the article Xt'Tapalatakettle Head to refer to the actual head... assuming the God isn't just a head in uh... "real life".--Greasysteve13 07:47, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't know if the article needs renaming (though it could be) - but I think it should be clarified in the article that it's the name of the god, not the head - which I'm pretty sure Burns' statement implies.TheHYPO 07:57, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

I've opted to redirect this article, instead of deleting it. In the event a useful page can be created later, I figure I'll leave the talk page in place. Luna Santin 15:29, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
