Cultural Centre of European Space Technologies → Herman Potočnik Noordung Center of Space Technologies – The institution was restructured and renamed in 2017 when it became state-operated. The name KSEVT was registered as a trademark at the time and the cultural aspect was mostly relocated to Ljubljana and elsewhere.[1] The article describes the building and exhibitions in Vitanje, so we should use the name that refers to the entities in Vitanje. The proposed name is used by the center itself on their website. TadejM my talk 12:16, 4 February 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Bensci54 (talk) 04:57, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: The institution's website currently has the (syntactically malformed) English name "Center of Space Technologies Herman Potočnik Noordung". If we deviate from that (and I think we should), I would suggest the better-formulated name "Herman Potočnik Noordung Space Technology Center". Doremo (talk) 16:18, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
- Actually they use both names (the one that I have cited and the one that you have) on their site,[2] so I went with the proposed one which seems syntactically correct to me. However, I trust you regarding these matters so I'm fine with the third variant that you've put forward too if you consider that we would otherwise introduce a grammatical error. Anyway, in general, I prefer choosing the name that is actually used by the organisation. --TadejM my talk 17:22, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that it's preferable to use a name that is actually used by the organization. "Center of Space Technologies" is not grammatically wrong, but it is clumsy. Doremo (talk) 18:17, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
