Title change

[edit]

I propose changing the title of this article for the following reasons:

  1. Chelone conflicts with far more numerous mentions of plants of that genus in Google search.
  2. The mention of the story in Aesop's Fables predates the single mention in Servius by some centuries and the article should therefore more usefully (and logically) refer to the fable.
  3. Google search offers far more hits under the title Zeus and the Tortoise, the name by which the story is best known in textbooks, and that would not require having a bracketed subtitle.

There has been no major revision of the article since February 2012. I am about to make one and will change the title once I have done so. Mzilikazi1939 (talk) 14:54, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
