[edit] Removed associations

I have removed the association with Yin and the element Air. I have never heard of such things. Yin and Yang are considered above and parallel to the five elements, and not represented by any of the four guardians. The element Air mentioned here, I can only imagine, means the concept of four elements in Buddhism, which is a rather conceptual notion mentioned mostly in scholarly debate and does not employ icons such as the four guardians.

[edit] Move to White Tiger of the West

How about moving this to White Tiger of the West from White Tiger (Chinese constellation)? That name doesn't require disambiguation, and this thing isn't just a constellation, and isn't just Chinese. Kappa 17:37, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

I don't see a problem with how it's disambiguated right now. And the constellation does originate from China. The article discusses that it was used by Japanese and Koreans as well. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 21:50, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
