title[edit]

Is "World's First Hyperboloid structure" the name of the tower? —Tamfang (talk) 14:45, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, the tower does not have a name. The article's title is merely descriptive (and shouldn't be capitalized like that).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); June 10, 2012; 16:35 (UTC)

A better descriptive title, I think, would be "Shukhov hyperbolic tower, Nechayev estate, Polibino". —Tamfang (talk) 17:34, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's not how it is usually referred to, though. A good descriptive title is one that incorporates elements of real-world usage, not a completely artificial one.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); June 11, 2012; 11:57 (UTC)
