I think that the previous title was funnier. Testicles (Greek philosopher) is funnier than Testiclēs alone. That's my opinion. You can ignore it though. Polisz.jpgSir Ptok-BentonicznyPisz tutaj KUN 17:10, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

I shall! because the new name, with macron over the e, hints to pronounce it like a Greek name, and differentiates it from Testicles, and now they both point to one another. That you are reading about a Greek philosopher will be evident soon after you land here; what you were expecting depends on how you got here. Spıke Ѧ 18:03 13-Mar-11
As for me, the bracketed part implied the proper Greek pronunciation. Polisz.jpgSir Ptok-BentonicznyPisz tutaj KUN 18:43, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
Why not do both? "Testiclēs (Greek philosopher)". Also, I doubt a lot of people know the way a line above a vowel can indicate a certain pronounciation.

Okay, I'll restore the long form (minus the macron, which most people would spend two minutes figuring out how to type) as a redirect. Spıke Ѧ 19:05 13-Mar-11
Oops! it's already there, as I moved the article with redirect. No longer, however, with a capital P in philosopher. Spıke Ѧ 11:51 15-Mar-11

I believe that a closer study of the fragments of Testicles will reveal that he held a dualist position and thought that fundamental reality was spherical.
