→Dioceses, Archdioceses, Metropolises, etc.: overlapping jurisdictions
===Dioceses, Archdioceses, Metropolises, etc.===
Articles on component parts of autocephalous and autonomous churches should be named by their official self-naming convention. Examples: '''[[Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America]]''', '''[[Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America]]''', '''[[Orthodox Metropolitanate of Hong Kong and Southeast Asia]]'''.
The exception is for parallel dioceses between overlapping jurisdictions: they are named according to their "short" name along with the appropriate modifier in parentheses. Examples: '''[[Diocese of the South (OCA)]]''', '''[[Diocese of the West (Antiochian)]]'''.
