On second thought, I'm thinking maybe the "2009" part of in the title is unnecessary. Have there been any other royal visits? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 14:38, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
:None by the spanish, at least. I like the year, though. There was only one [[Streetcar operators' strike, 1908|streetcar operators' strike]] but I put the article at "Streetcar operators' strike, 1908" ... But we can go either with or without it, no big deal really.
Here are Wikipedia's conventions:
<pre>If there is an established, universally agreed-upon common name for an event, use that name.
Otherwise, create a name using these guidelines. In most cases, the title of the article should
contain at least the following two descriptors:
* Where the incident happened.
* What happened.
If these descriptors are not sufficient to identify the event unambiguously, a third descriptor should be added:
* When the incident happened.
The year ("when") should not be used in the title unless other descriptors are insufficient to establish the identity
of the incident.</pre>
Their guidelines would point toward dropping years unless necessary to "establish the identity of the incident." <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 14:45, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
