Avatar article link

As is customary for many Wikipedia articles, the first instance of the word Avatar links to the default Avatar article. However, it is not the fictional character cycle that is part of the cartoon show. It directs to the idea in Hindu culture. I did not want to remove it in case that such a link is warranted, but it seems to me that such a connection is only an allusion on the creator's part to use the term for Aang and his predecessors/successors. Should the link be removed, since it directs to an article that's not directly related to the subject matter of Aang's article?--134.129.205.102 (talk) 22:06, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Twimkeltows as an alias

I have removed name from the alias section since an alias is a fake name used by a person to hide their identity. It has nothing to do with nick names used by other people to make fun of the person. Here is a link to dictionary.com to prove my point [[1]] which proves that a nickname used by Toph regarind Anng is does not meet the definition of an alias.--70.49.81.140 (talk) 05:34, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

-I removed the line:
-:"Aang's early death can be explained by the effects of being frozen in an iceberg for one hundred years."
-It cites no references and sounds like personal opinion. It carries the same weight as speculation that he was assassinated by Amon's agents. [[User:Sings-With-Spirits|Sings-With-Spirits]] ([[User talk:Sings-With-Spirits|talk]]) 12:22, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
