When I was reading the article about the Revelation, I thought it was weird that the event's article wasn't called "Rally at the (wherever it was at)" or something like that. Upon further reading, I know that it was called "the Revelation" in-universe, so that's fine with me, but I find it unnecessary that we have "The" at the start of the article name. There should only be a "The" at the beginning of an article name about an in-universe subject if it's the title of something, such as a book or a movie, for example, The Adventures of Nuktuk: Hero of the South. I know it's a small change, but is there anyone who agrees or disagrees with me? SorcererSupreme21 (wallcontribs) 17:28, August 17, 2015 (UTC)

I do not believe that this is a serious problem that needs to be corrected. Duke of  Skibbington Fanon - Wall 07:20, August 24, 2015 (UTC)
I know, but personally, I sometimes get confused between the two articles, so if "The" was removed from the event article, that would be nice. Nothing huge, just something to prevent further confusion, as I think I'm not the only one who got confused on it. SorcererSupreme21 (wallcontribs) 16:39, August 26, 2015 (UTC)
I'm not quite sure why exactly the article is included either, but I think someone who can read the Asian script used in the show could ascertain this. Page 64 has an image of the poster, and I'm assuming that there's some way to read from the text in that flyer whether the article is part of the name or not. If anyone can read it, I can upload an image to a hosting site. Waterbending emblem Water Spout 08:03, August 30, 2015 (UTC)
It's already been translated at Writing in the World of Avatar. It just says "Witness - Tonight at 9". On a related note, I don't think the Chinese language has an equivalent to "the". However, I think that "the" is a part of the official English name of the event (as in The Revelation), so I think it should stay. --StefCW (wallcontribs) 00:52, September 5, 2015 (UTC)
If the poster only says "Witness - tonight at 9", where is it called "The Revelation" in-universe? If the case is it's not, I think it should be renamed. Like I said in the first paragraph, Rally at the(location name) is not a bad option. As for the Chinese characters, I don't see any on the page about the event, so I don't know what that has to do with it. SorcererSupreme21 (wallcontribs) 02:39, September 8, 2015 (UTC)
