Presbyterian Church in Korea (HapDong) → The General Assembly of Presbyterian Church in Korea – The General Assembly of Presbyterian Church in Korea is the official English name used by this branch. See [1]. If this RM is accepted I will also go on and WP:BOLD other branches as well. -- 00101984hjw (talk) 21:36, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- See WP:OFFICIALNAME. What is the most common unambiguous name for the church used in reliable sources? — JFHutson (talk) 20:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- "Presbyterian Church in Korea (HapDong)" is a direct translation of the branch's Korean name. "The General Assembly of Presbyterian Church in Korea" is not only the official English name of the branch but it was also used by the Korea Herald and the Korea Times.

- Most of the Presbyterian branch names in Template:Christianity in Korea are also direct, absurd translations. A lot of these branches are referred to their official English names on English-language media. 00101984hjw (talk) 01:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- If it is true that English-language media routinely refers to this church using the official name, I support the move, but I'm relying on the requester's statements. -- JFHutson (talk) 14:17, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I also agree that you should BOLDly move the other pages assuming you understand WP:COMMONNAME and have enough familiarity with the topic to know what the common names are. -- JFHutson (talk) 14:19, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
