Title?[edit]

Should this article be moved from "The Kinship of the Three" to "Cantong qi"? For these phrases, Google finds 39 and 1230 hits respectively, and 663 for "Zhouyi cantong qi". Although some scholars such as Needham use "The Kinship of the Three", it doesn't translate the qi 契, and others such as Pregadio translate "Token for the Agreement of the Three" (19 ghits).
