– The University of Tennessee at Martin athletics sports information page states: "The name of our institution is The University of Tennessee at Martin and if abbreviated, should be referred to as UT Martin. The University of Tennessee at Martin should be used as the first reference in a news story. UT Martin should be used in subsequent references and UTM is acceptable in headlines. Tennessee-Martin, UT-Martin, UT or Martin should never be used. The description Skyhawks should be used to represent all UT Martin athletic teams. Lady Skyhawks or ‘Hawks should never be used." Thus, Wikipedia should use the school's preferred branding for all related articles, while noting that ESPN and national media sometimes use "Tennessee-Martin" like in the Omaha Mavericks article.
