Proposed move

[edit]

According to this site, the original pronunciation for 銑 is xiǎn, as opposed to the modern pronunciation xǐ. The former meant "bright metal" and the latter means "milling machine"; I doubt this individual would have been named "Xiao Milling Machine," as "bright metal" would have been much more appropriate and suitable. Therefore, I propose to move this article to Xiao Xi. Does anyone object?--Pericles of AthensTalk 20:00, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it doesn't look like there's any objections. I'll go ahead and move the article.--Pericles of AthensTalk 03:38, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
