[[:The Newcastle Herald]] → {{no redirect|Newcastle Herald}} – For the following reasons:
* The definite article is not included in the masthead.
* In the list of dailies on [https://acm.media/brands/dailies/ the parent company's website], this is one of the titles for which the definite article is omitted. Others, such as ''The Canberra Times'', include it.
* Pages on the website omit the definite article in the <code>&lt;title></code> element and the meta og:site_name.
* It was previously branded as "The Herald", but this was abandoned in 2019 when [[Nine Entertainment|Nine]] sold the newspaper but retained the domain name theherald.com.au.

In prose, I think it is still correct to call it the ''Newcastle Herald'', like we do for the ''[[National Post]]'' or the ''[[Los Angeles Times]]''. The page already does this, with "the" not italicised and not capitalised at the start of a sentence.
