Symposion?

Shouldn't this be under its Greek title - "Symposion"? Peter Schmitt 21:11, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Well, no, the Greek title is "Συμπόσιον". In English, its titled "Symposium", and as far as I'm aware, Citizendium is in English. –Tom Morris 22:34, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
English, yes, of course, but I think that works of art, etc. should live under their original title (with redirects, of course). And isn't the usual (full) title "The Symposium"? Peter Schmitt 12:55, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
