People Party or People's Party?

[edit]

Should this party be referred to as the People Party or the People's Party? The article name was changed to be in congruence with People Party (South Korea), which has the same name in Korean and has the same founder. If you look at the edit history of that page, the justification for the article of the 2020 party being called "People Party" instead of "People's Party" was the party's own website, peopleparty.kr. That being said, prominent English-language news sources on South Korean politics such as The Korea Times and Korea JoongAng Daily have continuously referred to both 2016 and 2020 parties by the name "People's Party"; these two sources have never called either incarnation "People Party" (such as here).

Whatever the correct answer may be, what I think is important for English Wikipedia is to maintain congruent titles between the 2016 and 2020 incarnations. Again, they have the same name in Korean, so they should have the same name in English. Holidayruin (talk) 12:48, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
