The official name of the museum is "Museu Olímpic i de l'Esport Joan Antoni Samaranch", which is shown at all language versions of the museum site and also at the "contact us" page. Therefore, I think it is a bit risky that we now try to create names such as "Olympic and Sports Museum Joan Antoni Samaranch" or "Juan Antonio Samaranch Olympic and Sports Museum" because both of them are unofficial translations. I think we should rename the article to use the official name, and we can always add additional info at the intro.--Jordiferrer (talk) 10:00, 21 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The title should remain "Olympic and Sports Museum Joan Antoni Samaranch", because this is the English-language Wikipedia and the principal words "Museu Olímpic i de l'Esport" are not English. Eagle4000 (talk) 04:20, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

The title of the article "Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English)" says to "use English". Thus, the title should continue to use the English words "Olympic and Sports Museum" (along with museum's namesake in Catalan, "Joan Antoni Samaranch". Eagle4000 (talk) 04:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

The Spanish-language Wikipedia article for the National Baseball Hall of Fame (in Cooperstown, N.Y., U.S.) uses a Spanish-language name, "Salón de la Fama del Béisbol" (even though the official name is in English). Eagle4000 (talk) 04:50, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
