Why did you rename the National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy article?[edit]

The official name of the university can be seen at its website here http://www.ukma.kiev.ua/eng_site/index.php as National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy. Could you please explain why did you rename it to National University of Kiev Mohyla Academy? What is the basis of this decision? Renaming the old Academy has a basis in the fact that it is commonly used in the literature on the subject. However, the modern university is known under the fixed name National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy. Therefore, it is confusing to call it not by the official name. We can keep the name of the old Academy as Kiev Acedemy, also the Kiev theological seminary. However the modern institution having an official name the way it has it should be referred to correctly regardless of the historical predecessors. Silin2005 (talk) 10:33, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
