Wrong title![edit]

If somebody like Hillel Geva, who has done much of the archaeological excavation at the Citadel, presents strong arguments in favour of this being the Hippicus, not the Phasael tower (see Hillel Geva, The 'Tower of David'—Phasael or Hippicus? in the Israel Exploration Journal (1981), Vol. 31, No. 1/2, pages=57-65 [1]), and somebody like Denys Pringle writes "Tower of Hippicus (or Phasael)" (see Denys Pringle, Secular Buildings in the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem: An Archaeological Gazetteer, Cambridge UP (2009), p. 55 [2]), then WP should at least avoid picking a side and should use a neutral title like "Tower of Hippicus or Phasael", or viceversa, and link it to the four alternative options a user might search for (Tower of Hippicus, Tower of Phasael, Hippicus Tower, Phasael Tower).

Inadequate picture[edit]

... that can easily mislead the user. The Phasael or Hippicus Tower is hardly distinguishable - it's that small section on the left margin, with flags on top. Nothing better available?Arminden (talk) 11:56, 20 October 2015 (UTC)Arminden[reply]
