Forum:Policy: (the) Big (MT/Empty)?

Articles across the wiki refer to the location of Old World Blues inconsistently. Common options include:
 * Big Empty
 * Big MT
 * the Big Empty
 * the Big MT

It would be good to have some consistency of approach, particularly for the introduction lines of Old World Blues pages.

My preference is for "Big MT" (no the) for FNVOWB articles, and either "Big MT" or "the Big Empty" for references in other articles.

My reasoning is that "Big MT" is pronounced "Big Mountain", and it's "Big Mountain" not "the big mountain".

I welcome other opinions. --Actreal 00:22, August 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm also for "Big MT" (mostly used in OWB dialogues and used in the trailer) but in fact the full name is "Big Mountain Research and Development Center" and I don't know if it necessary need a "the" above it or not. "The Big Empty" should be used only for post-War article like Elijah but not in pre-War like Big MT (company). Itachou [~talk~] 13:42, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you really have consistency across the wiki, when it isn't referred to consistency in-universe? Also it depends on what you are referring to, the location or the company. User avatar tag.gif Avatar talk.png 19:27, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
