Comment Certainly verging on the unintelligible, but independent sources can be found: [1]. That leaves the question of whether the place is notable? AllyD (talk) 18:47, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question Are there multiple Cheng Huang Temples in Taiwan? I was looking through Google Books and found some independent sources which describe Cheng Huang Temple in Hsinchu City, Cheng Huang Temple in Taichung, Cheng Huang Temple in Taipei, and Cheng Huang Temple in Tainan (which AllyD pointed out). I couldn't find any listings of a temple in Kaohsiung. Am I missing something? Braincricket (talk) 22:26, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cheng Huang(城隍) is City god. Temples worshiping city gods are called "Cheng Huang Temple", so there are hundreds of them. The article being nominated was about one of them: "Zuoying Cheng Huang Temple". I rewrote the article about the general Cheng Huang Temple and redirected "Zuoying Cheng Huang Temple" to a section about it in Lotus Lake.Uaat (talk) 15:28, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to City God. As Uaat mentioned, the article was initially created for Zauying Cheng Huang Temple in Kaohsiung but has evolved into a general definition. City god already covers both subjects in detail so I don't see a point in another content fork. Funny ^Pika! 21:55, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect or Merge to a correspondent article. Eduemoni ^↑talk↓ 14:13, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to city god. In English, the current title is slightly misleading; this is about a class of temples, not one temple of Cheng Huang; and the subject seems to be best covered by the chief article. If an specific city god temple is notable an article can be written about it. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 17:39, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
