Hard to know the right thing, but

What this is not consistent with is that https://www.ed.ac.uk/ seemingly everywhere uses 'The/the University of Edinburgh'.

… a citation

Hard to know the right thing, but

- https://ror.org/01nrxwf90 does not include 'The' in the institution name (but
  it does for other institution names)
- https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q160302 has 'The University of Edinburgh' only
  in the "Also known as" section
- https://api.crossref.org/funders/501100000848 also 'The University of
  Edinburgh' only in the 'alt-names' section

What this is _not_ consistent with is that https://www.ed.ac.uk/ seemingly
everywhere uses 'The/the University of Edinburgh'.
