Equitorium → Equatorium — The correct spelling of this astronomical instrument is 'equatorium'. Articles were originally created under both that spelling and for 'equitorium' but they were unfortunately merged to the wrong spelling. Thus, could these two pages be exchanged? Many thanks. –Syncategoremata (talk) 17:07, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly support Equatorium is the common name in the historical literature. SteveMcCluskey (talk) 14:55, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Albion (astronomy) redirects here. This is ambiguous, since there is another astronomical object with the same name, Albion (formerly 1992 QB1, the namesake of the Cubewano asteroids). Renerpho (talk) 22:21, 3 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Invention

Andy Dingley
There are several sources that ascribe the invention of the equatorium to al-Zarqālī [1][2][3]. So what do you think?
Also, there are several inventions in Wikipedia that has been ascribed to multiple cultures at the same time like Armillary sphere for example. So how about adding both Greek inventions and Arab inventions categories for this article? Viaros17 (talk) 16:53, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
