HOW Foundation → The HOW Foundation – "The HOW Foundation" is the proper name in full of the nonprofit and has been since it was founded. Please see official name on the nonprofit website http://ww.http://thehowfoundation.org/ Wikimayor (talk) 15:28, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). TonyBallioni (talk) 15:30, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

• Wikimayor, I've procedurally converted into an RM because we typically don't include articles, so this would be controversial. You are free to make a case here under our naming policy. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:30, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose/revert: Please note that the nominator already moved the article, without moving the Talk page. I notice that some of the cited third-party sources (e.g., here and here) omit the "The" or do not capitalize it in running text, so Wikipedia style guidelines would seem to favor leaving it out. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:49, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose – most of the sources do not see "The" as necessary, so neither should we. Dicklyon (talk) 01:43, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
