Changing name from Premios CEC to CEC Awards

Hello Asqueladd, why did you change the name of this page? Is Premios CEC not the way these awards are referred to in Spanish? Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 00:12, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi, @Revirvlkodlaku:! It is my understanding that they are primarily known as Medallas del CEC/Medallas CEC/Medallas del Círculo.... In any case, I've attempted to get to an English-language name for the title (extremely spotty corpus of English-language sources and with some caution notwithstanding, the most common one seems to be "CEC Awards"). In the other hand, it's not like if it is important and/or decisive but the CEC webpage calls them "Medallas CEC" (in Spanish, that is). Regards.--Asqueladd (talk) 00:19, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough, I appreciate the explanation. I had assumed that since the article was previously titled "Premios CEC", that must be a colloquial name for the awards. Who knows how that came to be the article title though... Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 00:54, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Revirvlkodlaku: I did not see this. The organization actually claims in the page: "Se consolida el nombre génerico Medallas CEC para designar a los premios otorgados por el CEC, también en el 2003." The wording is not entirely clear but is it understood that from 2003 on, the consolidated (Spanish-language) name is "Medallas CEC". I get the feeling that that means that, before 2003, each award was called a premio, but there was not the same sense of a collective set of awards (or not to the same extent that after 2003, when they henceforth became collectively known as Medallas CEC.--Asqueladd (talk) 01:03, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
That clarifies it then, thanks {{u|Asqueladd}]! Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 04:47, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
