I don't think that Zionist Center is the name of this alliance; the phrase isn't used in a formal sense in the Al Jazeera link
[1]. I'm not sure what the article should be called.

No one calls this party the "Zionist Center." It's still the "Zionist Camp."
Sorry, but the term "Zionist Center" is NOT used by ANY media in Israel or the US. The writer of this stub obviously is embarrassed about the unfortunate name of the party, so they wish it to be called the "Center." But it's not, and it's not even the "working title" of the party. Even your link refers to the party as "Zionist Camp." Both the literal meaning in Hebrew and commonly-used title in media is "Camp," so until they change it, "Camp" it should stay! Thanks

It does have a very small amount of usage in the media, but you are correct that Zionist Camp is the right name - I've moved the article.

Zionist Union
The official name of this list in English is now Zionist Union. Gil Hoffman made the announcement here, though I am aware twitter is not considered an acceptable source:
Fair enough. Apparently Hatnua's official name in English was "The Tzipi Livni Party" for the longest time, and only the JPost went along with that until the sheer weight of common sense forced Livni to change it.
Hey all, after seeing an article about the Zionist Union in the Washington Post, I wanted to check out the Wikipedia article and saw this discussion on the name. It looked like there was a pretty clear consensus that the MSM was using Zionist Union and Wikipedia should too, so I took the liberty of moving the page over. I also went through all the articles that linked to Zionist Camp and changed the links. I hope that wasn't too bold; it didn't look like anyone was agitating to keep the old article name.
