Naming

edit

I was wondering about the name of the article. The album is definitely not called '2NE1' and it's not '2NE1 2nd Mini Album' either. The two titles that have been used have been '2nd Mini Album' or 'Nolza' (for the Japanese edition, proof here. I lean more towards 'Nolza' because it more closely resembles an actual name, but maybe '2nd Mini Album' should be used because it's the title used in Korea, where it was first released.

It's been referred to as 2NE1 2nd Mini Album according to iTunes [1] and Billboard [2] That those major media charts are including the subtitle indicates they care about the distinction. iTunes for 2NE1 1st Mini Album: [3] Spin magazine also calls it with the subtitle: [4] -AngusWOOF (talk) 01:18, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

For some reason, Korea calls all albums 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. by chronology. (Even western albums) On Wikipedia, for sake of simplicity they are listed by their actual album names and it says in the text what chronology it is. The album art for this and the first EP simply says "2NE1". (ps. iTunes is not a record chart)Raykyogrou0 (Talk) 15:25, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
