National Commission for Culture and the Arts (Philippines) → National Commission for Culture and the Arts – This is the only available title for that article. It should be like this: National Commission for Culture and the Arts ~~(Philippines)~~ No need to put the (Philippines) on it. The content will take care of that. Relisted.

Oppose. I think it fails the "Recognizability" criterion in WP:AT. I believe that in cases of such "inherently ambiguous" names, some "preemptive" disambiguation is called for. Yes, maybe only Philippines has so-and-so titled commission, but such name could be from pretty much anywhere in the world. To see what I mean, type "National Commision for" in the search box and you will get about a dozen entries. OMG which one I want? Guess what? They include National Commission for Truth and Reconciliation (Chile), National Commission for Human Development (Pakistan), National Commission for Minorities (India) and National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research (USA). IMO all these should be moved to "disambiguated" titles rather than stay where they are. No such user (talk) 15:29, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- To No such user So what you mean is that the title should be National Commission for Blah Blah Blah (country name)?? If you think I am wrong, kindly clarify your side. I guess that our interpretation may be different from what I think. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 14:42, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - @3oWh pF0wHz: Correct. No such user (talk) 09:25, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    - Okay. I understand your side. j3j3j3 ...pfH0wHz 14:34, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Question do 100% of "National Commission for Culture and the Arts" search string in Google Books refer to Philippines? In ictu oculi (talk) 00:27, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. As per No such user's arguments. Just too confusing. - Alternativity (talk) 03:55, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
