Pasadena Community NetworkPasadena_Community_Access_Corporation – this is the legal name of the organization since 1983 and it is no longer branded as PCN Kurlysticks (talk) 05:13, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 11:59, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Then move it when it does, that's what redirects are for. Besides, legal names are probably easier to change than d/b/a names - changing legal name requires filing one bit of paper with a small fee; changing a d/b/a name is extremely costly as it requires changing all your branding, signage, letterheads, logos, website, business cards....
  • Oppose and move to Pasadena Media. jamacfarlane (talk) 23:09, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose and move to Pasadena Media. Apologies, I'm new at this. After reading Wikipedia:Article_titles#Deciding_on_an_article_title I totally agree with you all. I disagree with the offhanded notion that this legal name would be easier to change since it would require several City Council actions on top of those of the Board of Directors. As I said, the d/b/a change has happened numerous times in 35 years, yet the legal name stands. We should let the board know how costly it would be to change the d/b/a again though.

Kurlysticks Wikipedia is an encylopaedia, and we document the world as it is, not propose how it should be. We have no role to "let the board know how costly it would be to change the d/b/a again" as you suggest. But I am glad you support the move to Pasadena Media. If the d/b/a name changes in the future, the article can be moved: Wikipedia can be changed! jamacfarlane (talk) 15:43, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
