There's been a little bit of debate on [[Wikipedia:Requested moves]] recently with the proposals to move [[Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] to [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] (which isn't on the page anymore; discussion archived at [[Talk:Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]]) and [[The George Washington University]] to [[George Washington University]], which you can still vote for. I just wanted to point this out to people not aware.
I would also like to peddle my point of view now. I nominated the changed for Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and GWU was listed after it was cited as precedent in that case. I believe we should call things by their name whenever that's feasible; if that's an organization, by the legal name; if it's something else, by it's most common name. In both instances, "The" is included in the common and legal name. The Church released a style guide a few years back which specifically advised media that the "The" was to be included, at least in the first reference. The George Washington University has been similarly vigilant about its moniker. Largely an outgrowth of these efforts, both seem to include the "The" in the majority of uses by reputable publications. [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions]] also agrees with all of this, as it states that the definite article should be used "in titles of works [and] official names".
