Why use the Dutch name for the article title?

[edit]

The first sentence of this article begins:

The Herculesramp (Dutch for 'Hercules disaster') is an aviation accident that occurred ...

Why, then, is this article titled using the Dutch name for the incident? That is, why isn't the title of this article "Hercules disaster" and the first sentence begin:

The Hercules disaster (Dutch: Herculesramp) is an aviation accident that occurred ...

Per, WP:TITLE (see sub-section "English-language titles"), English wikipedia article titles should be in English language.

If the naming was based on the project guidance (<<year>> <<airline>> <<aircraft>> <<event>> or if this is not possible, <<year>> <<place>> <<event>>) it would be 1996 Belgian Air Force Hercules accident or 1996 Eindhoven Hercules accident rather than "Hercules Disaster".

I moved the article to 1996 Belgian Air Force Hercules accident per above. Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 04:07, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
