The result of the move request was: Not moved. Editors did not find that capitalized 'The' is routinely used in running text when referring to the Brisons, as required by the guideline at WP:THE. In some cases the word 'the' is completely omitted. EdJohnston (talk) 18:37, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Brisons → The Brisons – Per WP:THE, "The" in this case is part of the name unlike the Sun for example it is The Brisons on OS.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 13:45, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. Exactly like The Sun. 62.165.227.102 (talk) 06:28, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment. The four "list of shipwreck" articles that link to here all use "the Brisons". One, List of shipwrecks of Cornwall (19th century), uses that four times, but The Brisons once. Is it a relatively recent change that "The" is part of the OS name? It's no big deal, but there seems some variability in RS over whether "the" is part of the name. The National Trust calls them "Brisons Rocks" and "the Brisons Rocks", for example. 62.165.227.102 (talk) 07:49, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose. WP:THE says that we should only include the definite article if the word "The" is routinely capitalised in running text. The Sun certainly fits that description, but I don't think The Brisons does. See for example  &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 14:41, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
