What's the deal here? In my research of the [[Brotherhood of Randis]], the planet is only referred to as '''Antallos''', with '''Port Krin''' a major city on the planet. Did the planet change names (and receive the additional name) with some licensed source? Even so, I propose changing the article name to just Antallos, with a re-direct at Port Krin. The article can state that it has two names (if applicable). --[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 09:47, 21 August 2008 (CDT)

Port Krin planet name, city or both

What's the deal here? In my research of the Brotherhood of Randis, the planet is only referred to as Antallos, with Port Krin a major city on the planet. Did the planet change names (and receive the additional name) with some licensed source? Even so, I propose changing the article name to just Antallos, with a re-direct at Port Krin. The article can state that it has two names (if applicable). --Revanche (talk|contribs) 09:47, 21 August 2008 (CDT)
