Event name UFC on ESPN 3[edit]
Please do not change the UFC on ESPN 3 and the following events as the event names are sourced as well as all the announced bouts associate with them which means it effect 100+ fighters' pages on links, redirect and double redirect. Thank you. The event which reported would be aired on ESPN+ as reported on April 16, 2019 has been added in the lead section. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk)
- Or you could leave valid edits. "The event names are sourced" is a ridiculous argument. The event name changed. That is fact. Here's a reference from Tapology:
Saturday 04.27.2019 at 05:30 PM ET U.S. Broadcast: ESPN+ | Prelims: ESPN Name: UFC on ESPN+ 9: Jacare vs. Hermansson

This needs to be fixed or Wikipedia is out of Sync with the entire MMA community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.121.164.208 (talk) 02:56, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- 216.121.164.208 Greetings. If you search UFC on ESPN 3 and click on the link it will redirect to UFC Fight Night: Jacaré vs. Hermansson which the event is named. Do search on the history page and net, what the event name has been called. Try to search UFC on ESPN+ 1 and UFC Fight Night 143 and both of them will redirect to the actual name of the event UFC Fight Night: Cejudo vs. Dillashaw. UFC does not name the event named when they announced the event, press usually will announced either a fight night or "on espn" (previous when it was broadcasted in Fox would be UFC on Fox xx). For such press create UFC Fight Night xxx for naming of the event before the actual headliner pair is named for the event by UFC. We created the event name as per (sources) press provided for such you would see 'UFC on ESPN+" x and "UFC Fight Night xxx" and will redirect and double redirect to actual event name. Many of the associate bouts would either named by the press UFC on ESPN+ x of UFC Fight Night xxx or UFC (City Name). We added the matchup/bouts accordingly to event names and fighters pages and UFC associated article in Wikipedia. Ultimately all bouts associate with the page will channel back/redirect to the final actual event name which is the page name. This has been done this way in Wikipedia for years. Cheers.

Fix the numbering already. Every other source has.

this should be "also known as UFC Fight Night 150" - future fight night events on wiki should be bumped up by one (i.e. fight night 150 becomes 151) 68.115.81.175 (talk) 21:03, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. There is no mention of "Fight Night 150" or "Fight Night 151" in the article. NiciVampireHeart 15:16, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
- Two sources here that I previously listed elsewhere - https://www.sherdog.com/events/UFC-Fight-Night-150-Jacare-vs-Hermansson-73337 https://www.mmamania.com/2019/4/26/18514777/ufc-fight-night-150-new-blood-preview-jacare-souza-thomas-gifford-takashi-sato-ft-lauderdale-mma
- All UFC events airing on ESPN+ basically carry three names: UFC Fight Night: Fighter vs. Fighter, UFC on ESPN+ #, and UFC Fight Night ###. Multiple people have provided sources; Sherdog is one of the leading sources for the sport. Because this event was moved (from ESPN to ESPN+) this numbering came into effect. Older articles will not reflect but newly published sources like those I have provided will. This event takes place tonight and this should be corrected ASAP. In short "(also known as UFC on ESPN+ 8)" should read "(also known as UFC on ESPN+ 8 / UFC Fight Night 150). This will impact subsequent events which seems to have created friction with another mod, but accuracy of information is key. UFC Ottawa (the next ESPN+ event) then becomes UFC on ESPN+ 9 / UFC Fight Night 151 - right now it is correct as UFC on ESPN+ 9 but incorrectly labeled UFC Fight Night 150. UFC Rochester = UFC on ESPN+ 10 / UFC Fight Night 152. Individual fighter pages saying "Fighter X last fought at UFC Fight Night ###" will also need to be corrected. It's unfortunate, but the UFC opted to change its broadcast plans last minute.
