Wilson Times → The Wilson Times – — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shortride (talk • contribs) 00:07, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

• Support per WP:NCTHE. "The" is part of the name of the newspaper, just as it is for The New York Times, The Boston Globe, The Baltimore Sun, etc. This should be a non-controversial move, so if there's no reasonable opposition in a few days it should be moved. Retain "Wilson Times" as a redirect. Sundayclose (talk) 01:11, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
• Support per nomination and Sundayclose. Uncontroversial technical request, indeed. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 08:17, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
• Support: For newspapers, we usually follow the masthead, which has "The" in this case per https://www.wilsontimes.com/. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:12, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
• Closing comments: I note that there's a previous move

02:34, 29 January 2020‎ Sundayclose talk contribs block‎  73 bytes +73‎  Sundayclose moved page Wilson Daily Times to Wilson Times over redirect: Name of the newspaper was changed several years ago.

and I'm very dubious of the rationale there. But hopefully we'll now have stability. Andrewa (talk) 01:17, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
