Apostrophe

I believe "Dîner des trois empereurs" is "Dinner of the three emperors" or "Three Emperors' Dinner" (note the apostrophe). Art LaPella (talk) 02:06, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Every published reference uses "Three Emperors Dinner" without an apostrophe. WP:NAME says article titles should be "consistent with usage in reliable English-language sources". ShipFan (talk) 04:34, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it looks like you're more right than wrong. (Some think that guideline should be clarified to exclude punctuation, but it hasn't happened yet.) Art LaPella (talk) 05:31, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
