Museum name
It seems to me that the title of the page should be the museum's official name, Musée national du Moyen Age, with its old but still popular name of Cluny given as the secondary name. Was there any particular reason why the present set-up was chosen, redirecting from the correct name to the popular one? Awien (talk) 11:31, 25 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Two and a half years with no objections being raised seems like enough. Going ahead and doing it. Awien (talk) 16:49, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I have seen the name seem to change on their site as well, though now it appears the "older" way, as "Musée de Cluny -- Musée national du Moyen Âge" http://www.musee-moyenage.fr/. Perhaps we should tweak the title again so it reads Musée de Cluny -- Musée national du Moyen Âge FULBERT (talk) 15:27, 14 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Si vous êtes Français, Fulbert, joyeuse fête nationale. And as for going back to Musée de Cluny, I have no objection. That's what it'll always be in my mind anyway. Awien (talk) 18:42, 14 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I am American and just visited the museum again (for the 5th time) while on holiday. That is when I noticed the discrepancy with our naming here. Made the name change, and will likely need to tweak the page itself to make it consistent. Thanks for keeping on top of this!! FULBERT (talk) 13:16, 17 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Maybe my favourite museum in the world! And thank you too. Awien (talk) 16:57, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Page move
I am not sure I understand what was moved by in the page move; I could not see any change or understand what happened. Anybody? FULBERT (talk) 16:29, 7 October 2017 (UTC)


 * There was a double hyphen in the page name - I simply removed one of them as it wasn't necessary.  Brookie :) { - like the mist - there  one moment and then gone!}  (Whisper...) 15:35, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks Brookie! FULBERT (talk) 16:58, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Musée de Cluny – Musée national du Moyen Âge → Musée de Cluny – Restore original, shorter title. Article was moved here due to a good-faith but misguided appeal to this being the "official name", but there's no need for the subtitle; there's only one Musée de Cluny, and the museum is unsurprisingly referred to as just this routinely (English language reliable source examples that omit the subtitle entirely:, , ). The French Wikipedia article is just at fr:Musée de Cluny as well. SnowFire (talk) 08:38, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom and common name. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:39, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. Clear common and less verbose name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:14, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Support still most common, at least in English. Johnbod (talk) 18:24, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose The present version is the most appropriate form in combining the "popular" name - among those in the know - with the decreed official name, the one that appears on the signboard outside the building and in the museum's addresses. Awien (talk) 13:28, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
