Title

What is the thinking behind naming the article after the organization's first name. Are all 3 names mentioned in the article the same organizatino. If so, it should probably be title with it's current name which appears to be NATO Undersea Research Centre--RadioFan (talk) 14:43, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Still debating this issue myself. Initially had all the info under NATO Undersea Research Centre (still under development in my user page) but the article was turning out too long. The current article may get even longer when those who know SACLANTCEN decide to contribute. One justification is that SACLANTCEN was pre-coldwar era and written as a historical article while NURC is post-coldwar era and currently engaged in different activities (is that a good justification?). On the other hand since the topic is about the organisation it makes sense to have it as one article. But how to deal with the length? Am new to Wikipedia, so would appreciate all comments/advice!
