Misnamed?[edit]

There is a comma in the visible name of the statue (Martin Luther King, Jr.), so should the name reflect that or, because of the new comma-less Wikipedia biographical guideline, should art works also be decommatized. Asking because I'm not sure, although for the sake of named artwork I'd favor using the comma. Are there any other cases where articles on artworks are misnamed because of a Wikipedia biographical styling guidelline? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 17:51, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move?[edit]

@Ham II: Before I move, curious if you agree with moving this page to Bust of Martin Luther King Jr. (Wilson)? If so, we might update your NSHC sandbox as well. Thanks! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:23, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Another Believer: Thanks for this. I'd prefer Bust of Martin Luther King Jr. (U.S. Capitol), per "disambiguation by location rather than the sculptor is usually better" in MOS:ART/TITLE. I promise you I will get round to doing a move request for the NSHC sculptures... Ham II (talk) 14:18, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ham II, Thanks, and no worries. I'm not opposed as long as there are not other busts of MLK at the Capitol. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:56, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Another Believer: I think this is the only one: [1]. Ham II (talk) 18:07, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Another Believer: I've gone ahead and made the move. Ham II (talk) 21:37, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
