What's in a name?[edit]

Hello, I stumbled on this page while answering a question about Notman, and I was surprised to see the McCord called "McCord Museum of Canadian History." Nowhere on the museum's website does it call itself that, and the linked article at Canadian Encyclopedia doesn't use that name either. I strongly suggest removing all references, and referring to the museum as McCord Museum. I also find it strange that this article has no reference to the acquisition of the Stewart Museum or Fashion Museum collections (2013 and 2018 respectively). ^[1] The Raven's Librarian (talk) 13:29, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps not today, but it certainly used that name in the past. For example, have a look at the footer at its website as archived on 2010-12-27. Or the title page of the 2009 Financial statements of THE McCORD MUSEUM OF CANADIAN HISTORY. Or this entry at the Virtual Museum of Canada. We should not expunge previous or official names simply because they are no longer used; they should be moved into the history section of the article. Regarding the mergers, it's because nobody has gotten around to it (the article has only had primarily trivial and cleanup edits in the past 7-8 years). Be bold!
