397:, I think it is quite clear that we don't use hyphens in article titles. A hundred or so articles isn't an "occasional exception", this is a large series of articles, that need to follow the MOS. I don't think this has been "left alone" for the past 8 years, all the federal ridings have been moved since then. This move will also align these article with the federal style. Arguing that

Hyphens in the "official" list, well if we can all agree that the official name from the source trumps our own guideline, then I'll have to learn to live with it (after learning to live with MOS:DASH).

move to hyphenated titles, per
Bearcat. This whole request is backwards, the moves away from the correct version should all have been reversed per BRD. The enabling legislation clearly does not use an em-dash, and appears to use a hyphen. This is the official and only definition of the names. As far

What did I just say? Maybe we should ask the Queen's
Printer. What does the official source say? Since you've now resorted to that stale argument about how people using hyphens are just lazy (or presumably stupid) as opposed to the amateur editors at WP:MOS who are all-knowing, can I point out that
841:
related discussion shows that the choice is made very seriously (read at 22:58 3 Feb 2011 and the "Style comments" collapse box contents) - this is not some "weird" style, it is standard-setting convention. Maybe we should ask the QP Office in
Alberta what "weird" style they use and how they feel
563:
Those are proper offical names and the use " — " is appropriate in toponymy to put two entities' names together, since one of the two may already have one or several " - " in its name. That's the rule used by
Elections Canada to name its ridings, often created by the merging of two old ridings. I
1023:
I don't understand why MOS:DASH wouldn't already take note of "creatures" (in this case, the
Government of Alberta is the sole creator) where the name appears first in a professionally typeset and eminently reliable source (the defining legislation). There are many many places where the dash
495:
This has come up before. What typography is used by the most typo-geeky sources, in this case the printers who published the enabling legislation? That is the proper "spelling", regardless of the opinions of a small group of WP editors at one MOS sub-page. Government printers actually do pay
940:
It isn't proper procedure to move pages during a move discussion, and it would be impolite to ask everyone to log their comments again in a separate discussion. I would hope that a move discussion can come up with a new naming convention, regardless of what the original move request was.
925:
And hang on a second here 117Avenue, if you're now saying that your bold moves were a mistake, then the answer is simple: revert your own edits back to the original names, close this RM and open a new one if you want to use an en-dash. That's called collaborative editing.
998:
If you had cared about our own MOS:DASH guidelines, you would have used en dashes. The hyphen is certainly preferable to the em dash, given that it at least has some basis and is less garish – though it does suggest a creek full of
Calgary fish – yum!
891:
you are comparing HTML index pages to PDFs? Who do you think would be more careless, the people making the website or the people making the actual documents? Please be serious about this rather than digging deep to cling to your failed premise.

These articles have literally been existing for years. They use the proper name that is mandated by the
Government of Alberta and the dash differentiates between legal name of some ridings that have longer dash in the proper name like

Electoral Divisions Act 2010 from the Legislative Assembly of Alberta which was the most recent passed by the Assembly. The names on the bill in pages 3 and 4 clearly have hyphens in the

that says to use what other authorities use? Because I see the line that says "Sources use dashes in varying ways, but for consistency and clarity
Knowledge adopts the following principles."

The em-dash is a federal standard, which applies because of the unique circumstances of federal district naming (i.e. the fact that there's a need to use
