Page Name?
Is there anybody here? These page name issues still have not been sorted out. And now that the religion has been officially founded, it is actually called "The Church of Elyon". The official page for the religion should be located at The Church of Elyon to correspond with the name used in-game. I would move the page myself and delete the extraneous pages, but these pages are not identical, and I don't want to miss any of the information. --Indirik 16:05, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
