Reportedly haunted locations in the District of Columbia → Reportedly haunted locations in Washington, D.C. – According to this year-old MoS discussion, the loose consensus was that article titles about the U.S. capital should use "Washington, D.C." when referring to it as a and "District of Columbia" when referring to it as a. In the case of this article, we're discussing the capital as a place, so it should be moved. Thrakkx (talk) 20:10, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Disagree, do not move - The final period in "Washington, D.C." disrupts URLs. There's a reason why many articles no longer use it, and it has to do with URLs rather than legal entity vs. geographic place. In the main body of text, I agree with the distinction. But not in article names. - Tim1965 (talk) 16:39, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * And so that's why the main article title is "District of Columbia" and not Washington, D.C., and why every category ends with "Washington, D.C.", right? I have not seen this argument before and there seems to be no basis for it, given that most articles about Washington, D.C., end with "Washington, D.C." (and all that don't have a redirect that do).
