Header : removing the dash

edit

As a parent of a student attending this school. I have the following edits. The article is about the Wilber Clatonia Public School District. The heading should change. At the very least the dash should be removed as it is not part of the official name. http://www.wilberclatonia.org/ You'll notice the dash in the official website was removed also. They still own the old website with the dash, but it transfers to the new site without the dash, they are working on removing the dashes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.15.161.9 (talk) 20:08, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

The footer at the school's website states   2019 Wilber-Clatonia Public Schools. Because website footers often display legal information, the name as it's shown there may, arguably, be thought of as more official than that of the name displayed in other areas of an organization's website. When an institution changes its name and/or branding, that footer is usually the last thing to be changed. It's at that time when a change to the name in Wikipedia should be considered. That consideration rests heavily on how the majority of sources (who are independent of the institution) refer to the institution, rather than how the institution refers to itself. That being said, the hyphen is such a minor change I'm sure it could be accommodated here in Wikipedia eventually. But as the footer of their own website still shows the hyphen, I don't see much impetus for changing it now. Regards,  Spintendo  21:51, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Public Schools vs High School

Heading converted to subheading ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:28, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri_County_Public_Schools This is our competitor school. They don't have a high school wiki article, they just have the public schools page. I believe that the Wilber-Clatonia High School article should be renamed Wilber Clatonia Public Schools, just like Tri County's. 72.15.161.9 (talk) 20:22, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Requests to change the article's title from Wilber-Clatonia High School to Wilber Clatonia Public Schools[a] should be submitted using the {{requested move}} template specifically as a controversial move request process requiring discussion amongst the wider community. More information on this process may be found at requested moves. Regards,  Spintendo  12:41, 6 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Notes

  1. ^ As the hyphen is removed in the proposed name change, the issue of whether or not to include the hyphen (which is separate from the issue of high school vs. public schools) ought to be settled first.
