Luther Monument (Washington, D.C.) → Statue of Martin Luther (Washington, D.C.) – WP:VAMOS has been updated and now says: "" Evidence the D.C. work is more commonly known as the "Luther Monument"? -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 05:01, 18 March 2020 (UTC) —Relisting.

 * Oppose-This statue is a cast of a statue in Germany that is called the German equivalent of "Luther Monument." As such the US statue has always been known as Luther Monument beginning in the 19th century. Proof is found on ngram viewer. It is not quite the same as any old statue of Martin Luther; there are plenty of those, but most are not known as "Luther Monument." The statue in Germany was erected the same year the seminary (I think in Wittenberg) was shuttered. It was controversial; the statue may have been sort of like a consolation prize. Sad, I know.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 03:11, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose as "Monument" is perfectly clear. Red   Slash  23:27, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
