Survey - in opposition to the move

 * 1) Oppose. The definite article is a part of the official names of many regiments; the fact that it was actually officially removed for some (e.g. Governor General's Foot Guards) indicates it's actually part of the proper name. WP:NCD also states, with reagrd to keeping the articles: ":Oppose: Some -- not all -- Canadian regimental names include the definite article in their names. The fact that not all do, and that some have had the article officially removed (e.g. Governor General's Horse Guards) indicates that the article should be retained for those regiments for whom it was retained. The conventions themselves state (with regard to keeping the definite articles) "This also extends to some non-musical groups, [emphasis mine] and even beyond "official" naming, for example The Invincibles (which is the nickname of several sports teams)." So even the guideline admits that the article need not be omitted in every case. -- Sig Pig  |SEND - OVER 22:45, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose unless you are saying the The isn't part of the name. There is already a redirect from Governor General's Horse Guards in case people come in that way. Cjrother 00:23, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

The name 'Ijsselmeer'in the 1940-1945 Battle Honours should, if spelled correctly, read 'IJsselmeer' as the letters 'IJ' represent one vowel in Dutch ; but if the honour spells the name as shown, this change should not be made. Wouwman 20:00, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
