[edit] Requested move

Korean Imperial HouseholdHouse of Yi — This article should be moved to House of Yi similarly as other royal families(see Category:Royal families). Additionaly, Yi family are not an imperial family in most years, they are an imperial family just only in 1897-1910. Mochi 02:52, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments:

  • I'm kind of neutral on this one; the KIH is arguably just a subset of the House of Yi (namely, the post-1907 House of Yi), which therefore maybe should have its own article. The current article really only deals with the KIH; for this to sit comfortably at "House of Yi," it would need considerable expansion. Perhaps even better would be a general article on the Jeonju Yi embracing both the royal and non-royal branches of that lineage. Also, Category:House of Yi notwithstanding, the suggested name is very unusual. Given the general divergence between Eastern and Western naming conventions WRT monarchy, it might be better to find a name that is more suited to the Korean context. -- Visviva 08:16, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
