[edit]

Neil Shah-Quinn, It is "the Gupkar Residence" not "People's Alliance for the Gupkar Declaration". None of the sources have mentioned "the". Sources refer to as "the Gupkar residence" (where all-party meeting was held). Also, former name may be explained in the lead. Please see [1]. You may wish to revert your edit and rename to its original title, People's Alliance for Gupkar Declaration. Regards TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:16, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Normally, I would still follow the majority who leave out "the", but to my ears it sounds very gramatically wrong. In my experience, "the" is always used in constructions of this kind: "the Balfour Declaration", "the Declaration of Helsinki", "the Arusha Declaration", "the 1890 Manifesto", "the Tashkent Declaration", "the Kyoto Protocol", "the Dayton Agreement", and so on.—Neil Shah-Quinn (talk) 18:40, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
