The Chronicle (Duke University) → Duke Chronicle – The proper/preferred name of this newspaper is The Chronicle, but it's often also referred to as the Duke Chronicle in contexts where The Chronicle would be confusing or ambiguous. Many reliable sources such as USA Today, Time, Washington Post, and Bleacher Report use and seem to prefer Duke Chronicle. The Chronicle also sometimes uses it themselves, such as in their online accounts (e.g. Facebook, Issuu) and their website domain name (dukechronicle.com).

Per the policy WP:Article titles § Disambiguation, natural disambiguation (i.e. using an alternate name) is preferred over parenthetical disambiguation. The title Duke Chronicle seems like a much cleaner way to disambiguate this title than the current "(Duke University)" parenthetical note. IagoQnsi (talk) 20:04, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
