Comment[edit]

As there is a reference to Chris Hoy here, shouldn't there be a wikilink somewhere to this celebrated cyclist? After all, he has now beaten the record formerly held by Stephen Redgrave for having most Olympic golds by a British competitor. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 23:14, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Emirates Arena[edit]

Shouldn't we rename this article to "Emirates Arena"? If you look across the English-language Wikipedia, most other stadiums and arenas with sponsors' names are named as such. Kennethmac2000 (talk) 11:51, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it should be renamed Emirates Arena, Wikipedia's policy is to use the common name (see WP:COMMONNAME) and I still think it is better known as the Commonwealth Arena and Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, after all, that it's official name during the commonwealth games. Wikipedia frequently uses non sponsored names, see Falmer Stadium, City of Manchester Stadium. --Kafuffle (talk) 13:04, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
