Requested move

[edit]

New MeadowProstar Stadium

The stadium was finally given a name at a press conference on 21 July. Evidence: BBC Sport

It had previously been given the nickname 'New Meadow', amongst many other descriptive names, none of which were official. Published evidence can be found of at least 3 used names.

We don't allow sponsorship names usually, but in the case of new grounds which are made without an official title, we have to give way to the only official name that the stadium is given. In Shrewsbury's case it comes 12 months after building is completed.

Move, as nominator.  slυмgυм [ ←→ ] 17:45, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong oppose New Meadow is the established WP:COMMONNAME (14,000+ Ghits compared to 179 for Prostar Stadium) and there is agreement that just as we do not use sponsored names for leagues, we do not use sponsored names for stadium articles if an established name exists - see Dean Court rather than Fitness First Stadium, Crown Ground instead of Fraser Eagle Stadium, Deva Stadium rather than Saunders Honda Stadium etc etc. пﮟოьεԻ 57 19:27, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the infobox, it says category three, but in the opening paragraph it says category four. Can someone clear this up please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alanbuchanan (talkcontribs) 14:55, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
