I don't understand why this article is entitled 'Orthros' when 'Matins' is both the accepted and proper term in English. Can someone enlighten me? -- [[User:Pistevo|oea]] 14:22, December 13, 2005 (CST)
 
::Early on we had a discussion and elected to go with the Greek <i>Orthros</i> rather than the Latinate <i>Matins</i> as the standard for this article. This follows the pattern used elsewhere on OrthodoxWiki of preferring the Greek form of a name as the main article, with variants redirecting to it (see, for instance [[Diakonissa]] and [[Shamassy]], [[Presbytera]] and [[Matushka]], etc.). {{User:Dcndavid/sig}} 14:47, December 13, 2005 (CST)
