Tuina (moth)Tuina – The redirect at Tuina is to what appears to be a misspelling of Tui na. Better to put the unambiguously correctly-spelt article in that position. 86.** IP (talk) 14:36, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. See JHunterJ's evidence above. Too easily confused with Tui na – a much more popular topic; and it is very often spelt "tuina", as it is simply a romanisation corresponding to two Chinese characters that function as one "word". See first sentence in that article: "Tui na or tuina[1] (Chinese: 推拏[citation needed] or 推拿; pinyin: tuī ná), is a form of Chinese manipulative therapy ...". (As recently edited by JHunterJ, quite correctly; I have bought books on tuina in China, to bring to someone in Australia. They usually have the form "tuina" in the title.)

  • Oppose per Dicklyon. Noetica makes a good point, too. Tony (talk) 05:44, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose it is not a mispelling, it is an alternate spelling. It is therefore correctly spelt. 70.24.248.211 (talk) 08:07, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
