Support If this is the name by which they are known, I support the move.-- TonyTheTiger ( T/ C/ BIO/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:FOUR) 19:41, 30 July 2011 (UTC) reply

• Oppose. We use common name, not official name. And we only capitalise a definite article if it would be capitalised in running text (which is rare for anything other than an artistic work, band or something similar). See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (definite and indefinite articles at beginning of name)#Rule of thumb. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 22:51, 31 July 2011 (UTC) reply
• Oppose per Necrothesp. Now if only we could get The Bahamas and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to follow the guidelines. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 03:48, 1 August 2011 (UTC) reply
• Comment Is this not more akin to The New York Times, the example given in the following paragraph of Wikipedia:Naming conventions (definite and indefinite articles at beginning of name), if you bother to read on? Skinsmoke ( talk) 20:48, 1 August 2011 (UTC) reply
  • You mean in the section called "Titles of works and publications"? No, I don't think this name is a title of a work or publication. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 21:44, 1 August 2011 (UTC) reply
