2022 United States House of Representatives election in District of Columbia → 2022 United States House of Representatives election in the District of Columbia – The convention for articles involving the District of Columbia is that the word the is inserted before it. That is the natural language surrounding this topic. Compare this to There was no consensus to do this. "The" is an important word in this title. Compare this to United States presidential elections in the District of Columbia, United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, Mayor of the District of Columbia, and Government of the District of Columbia, ALL of the shadow senator election pages, ALL of the shadow representative pages, etc. Last June, CX Zoom manually moved all of the USHR election pages to remove the the after merely requesting that an admin help him out. I reverted all of those changes because there was no consensus to do so, and it breaks with the common convention. I could not revert this page on my own.

- Support, basically speedy. I would have fulfilled this as a technical request. BD2412 T 04:34, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
- Support: I realise that the "the" might be important, as is used in vast majority of literature, so support going back to status quo. Maybe we can close this early, and move the pages, since I'm myself supporting this? —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 06:06, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
