A fact from Ixlu appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 June 2009 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that a Maya ruler of Ixlu, a small ancient city in Guatemala, claimed to be the lord of the major Maya city of Tikal?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2009/June.

Page name

Should the page name Ixlu and the redirect at Ixlú be swapped round if the name of the place is really Ixlú? -- SGBailey (talk) 10:14, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No need, our (WP:MESO's, anyways) general convention for Mesoamerican site names is not to use the accented char, if the site's name derives wholly from an indigenous (in this case Maya) name, and that language's orthography does not use them. The accented vowel here comes from spanish orthographical conventions (marking stress). Since we are writing in english, the placename is not a spanish one, and the maya name doesn't need or use the accent, then we've elected not to do so either.--cjllw ʘ TALK 15:50, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've now changed all cases of Ixlú to Ixlu. Simon Burchell (talk) 17:52, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
