Article title
[edit]In November 2019, the Parachute Training School was renamed the Australian Defence Force Parachuting School.[1]. What would be an appropriate title for the article? The new name is quite long. Shortening to ADF Parachuting School is concise. WP:TITLE is to avoid using acronyms. There is also the manual of style WP:ACRONYMTITLE to consider. Instead of using the exact name, if full the name was to be used, it could be rearranged to Parachuting School (Australian Defence Force). --Melbguy05 (talk) 10:50, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

- G'day, I agree with Nick, I'd go with Australian Defence Force Parachuting School as the article title. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 08:41, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
