coining a new term? change article name?

[edit]

I am somewhat concerned the article may be coining a new term, "British Queen Anne Revival", when that term is not used anywhere in practice. Should this article be moved to Queen Anne Revival architecture in the United Kingdom or something else, instead? There is Queen Anne architecture in the United States, also, which perhaps should be clarified/revised, too. --Doncram (talk) 22:47, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Queen Anne Revival architecture (Britain) would be best. The move should have been discussed "Chiswick Chap moved page British Queen Anne Revival to British Queen Anne Revival architecture: match other architecture articles" is ridiculous, but unfortunately he has a penchant for these.

If we need to change it to that, no objection; the name must not imply that there is one unified architectural style in Britain and elsewhere, as the styles are quite different. On the comment about me, that's a clear breach of WP:NPA; I made the move to fit in as closely as possible with the naming of similar articles. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:54, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
