Christian Science Plaza

[edit]

Hello,

I’m an employee of The First Church of Christ, Scientist. I would suggest naming this page Christian Science Plaza, instead of Christian Science Center. While the location that this entry refers to has in the past been called Christian Science Center, it is most often known now as Christian Science Plaza. See a recent Boston Globe article. Also, the two most popular map apps refer to it as Christian Science Plaza: Google Maps and Waze.

I am requesting that consideration be given to updating this.

Christian Science CenterChristian Science Plaza – As per above, I am initiating a move request. While the location that this entry refers to has in the past been called Christian Science Center, it is most often known now as Christian Science Plaza. See a recent Boston Globe article. Also, the two most popular map apps refer to it as Christian Science Plaza: Google Maps and Waze.

The Boston Globe is a good source, though it is one example rather than systematic. If I have not used Ngrams "with care", my argument can be weighed accordingly. I suppose Google Maps can be taken into account, though I don't know that its names are considered reliable. If they were, WP:WIAN would probably list it as an example instead of NatGeo. Meanwhile, Waze (a Google subsidiary) uses Google Maps data. I would like to see what editors here think. (I am changing to neutral because I see at least a couple mentions in books in the past decade that were references to news articles before the 1990s.)

Thanks for the feedback above Spintendo. Per your request, I’m initiating a new edit request. The first sentence of each of the first two sections refers to the old name of the article, “Christian Science Center.” I’d suggest updating them to match the current name of the article, “Christian Science Plaza.”
Also, the word “center” in the second sentence of the lead paragraph could be changed to “plaza” and the last phrase of that sentence – “which refers to it as Christian Science Plaza” – could be dropped, since it is redundant. FirsthandPOV-CCS (talk) 13:46, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
