Article name[edit]

I propose to rename the article to Énsi or Ensí. ENSI doesn't seem to be the name of an individual sign, so there's no reason for the capital letters; it's written PA.TE.SI (a Diri compound). The Neo-Assyrian version of EN is said to be used for ENSI2 as well, but that doesn't seem to have been the case in Sumerian times - see the PSD, CDLI etc.. --Anonymous44 (talk) 02:18, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Estéban (talk) 17:47, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
