Page titles for churches in Italy[edit]
Hello. I was wondering if anyone could provide me with more guidance regarding page titles for churches, specifically in the case of Italian churches. For minor churches not commonly known in the English language, this rules should apply: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (architecture), yielding translated names (eg, *St. Joseph's Church). Howeer, in practice, I see that on the English Wikipedia most Italian churches are titled in Italian with just the saint denomination and no word for "church" (eg, the actual San Giuseppe). What is the correct naming rule? Thanks a lot. Plumbago Capensis (talk) 07:59, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Possible inclusion (Kudan House)[edit]
This gem in Tokyo seems like a good candidate for inclusion. Fascinating history and lovely example of the style. (Also, we have a redirect from Kudan House to The Kudan, which is a mistake – they are two different buildings.) -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 16:00, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
PS: (See wikidata:Q125792289)
- Cl3phact0 The house seems to have reopened and possibly been renamed in 2018. It may not be the only Kudan House in Tokyo. TSventon (talk) 18:11, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, it looks like it was renovated and renamed "Kudan House" (or maybe "kudan house"). Previously is was the "Yamaguchi Mankichi House" (or some permutation of that name). Apparently it is used for events and exhibitions now. The website shows some nice archival material (architectural drawings and whatnot).
- The Philippine Ambassador's residence (called The Kudan) seems to have been a childhood home of Yoko Ono, which may be of interest to some readers. Again, not the same building. The redirect looks like a mistake.

- Cl3phact0 the 2015 Tatler article calls the Philippine Ambassador's residence "Kudan House" five times, so the redirect makes sense at the moment as kudan.house does not currently have an article. TSventon (talk) 20:43, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Fair enough. (I'm here to propose a new article. The redirect was a secondary matter.) Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 20:50, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Cl3phact0 I don't think the two references I have seen establish notability as they could be based on press releases. It is fairly likely that there is more coverage in Japanese, but I wouldn't know where to start. It would be helpful to add a Japanese name (the website seems to use "kudan house" in Japanese) and a link to the heritage listing to Wikidata, perhaps someone at Reference Desk Humanities or Language could help.

- The "Related Sites" section of this site (in Japanese) contains links that may help establish WP:N (in particular, see Cultural Heritage and a Japanese edition of NYT Style magazine). -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 09:52, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
