Naming issue

[edit]

Strictly speaking, "Monte dei Cappuccini" is not the name of the church, which is the subject of this article, but it refers to and is the name of the hill upon which the church was built. Yet, in common local parlance, the two are almost indistinguishable, and when one mentions "Monte dei cappuccini", he or she might be referring to either the church or the hill. What do you think should be done? Thank you for your attention. ---roroke (talk) 14:28, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The italian entry for the structures on the site is titled "Monte dei Cappuccini"; one could argue that the term should refer to church and convent, and that the entry should reflect the geographic siting as the source for the names.Rococo1700 (talk) 21:12, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
