[edit] Which convention?

If anyone knows or can find out, it would be great to know which of the various Baptist conventions the church belongs to. The most likely candidates IMO are the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc., the National Baptist Convention of America, Inc., and the Progressive National Baptist Convention, though there are lots of other possibilities.

[edit] Sixteenth Street Baptist Church

This is the way the church names itself, and it is the name in official records, including HABS and the National Register. I've changed the article to reflect that when the name of the church is used. It should NOT be 16th Street Baptist Church, even if that is a wikipedia convention. Don't know how to change the article name. --Parkwells (talk) 14:11, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
