I'll try to get to campus next weekend to snap some pics of the stadium and the nearby Pharmed Arena. bd2412 T 22:22, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you are taking pictures this weekend you may want to take a picture of the baseball stadium as well. I´ve created a page for it and it needs a picture. Thanks! (Evill72 02:55, 5 January 2006 (UTC))[reply]

FIU has a baseball stadium? bd2412 T 04:53, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, its located on the west end of campus near the football stadium. Its across the street from the Campus Support Complex and right next to the soccer field. If you enter by the 117th Avenue entrance and drive straight through as if you were heading to the football field, you would see it to your left. (Evill72 05:03, 5 January 2006 (UTC))[reply]

I'll look for that as well. bd2412 T 05:12, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Stadium on Campus?

[edit]

When did FIU purchase the stadium property? I know that the property the stadium is on was originally owned by Miami-Dade County Parks and according to the county website, it is still county property. Did the county sell it to FIU? If not, then FIU does not play on campus. Just being close to the stadium doesn't make it on campus. For example, USC plays in the Coliseum at Exposition Park across the street from their campus, but they can't say that they play on campus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.22.199 (talk) 18:59, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FIU purchased it the same time it purchased the land where the Wertheim Performing Arts Center is, it's FIU property and the FIU Stadium is on campus. In fact, FIU has plans of purchasing the land between the two to build more dorms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Comayagua99 (talk • contribs) 02:33, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My two cents on the RM discussion

[edit]

1) This is about an American Football stadium, so RMs about soccer (football) stadiums aren't relevant in my opinion. They have a completely different culture regarding sponsorships and naming.

2) Articles with non-sponsored common names do get renamed to sponsored names, see Louisiana Superdome to Caesars Superdome, Broncos Stadium at Mile High to Empower Field at Mile High, or Ralph Wilson Stadium to Highmark Stadium. Granted, those are all NFL stadiums but the same principle should able to college stadiums.

3) WP:NOTADVERT doesn't apply at all. I fail to see how using the common name of a stadium is not "objective and unbiased style, free of puffery", especially when that common name is "verifiable with independent, third-party sources".

If the university is calling the stadium something, and the media is calling the stadium the same thing, the title of the article should reflect that.

Just my two cents. Esb5415 (talk) (C) 02:07, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right as I hit send I find college examples Cardinal Stadium to L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium, Jones AT&T Stadium has been renamed with a sponsor, SHI Stadium, etc. Esb5415 (talk) (C) 02:12, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 21 October 2024

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. I'll start off by saying that I have to agree with some of the oppose !votes here in stating that opening an RM just ten days after the exact same proposal was rejected is a WP:TROUTworthy offense, that doesn't inherently dilute the weight of this discussion. That being said, there appears to be consensus that the new name has been sufficiently used in recent sources to satisfy WP:NAMECHANGES. Opposers raised concerns (in the last RM, nothing was specifically said here) about using sponsored names. While WP:NOTADVERT was raised in support of this claim there, nowhere does that specific policy say anything about ignoring reliable sources or other policies specifically to avoid the possibility of an article title being taken as an advert. Similarly, a handful of RMs on association football stadiums where also provided where "sponsored names" were rejected, though I'm finding no evidence was provided to support those names were common like was provided here. And in any case, that's neither a hard-and-fast nor even written rule. Long story short, a consensus to move was formed based on the nomination, specifically WP:NAMECHANGES, even though the timing of this second nomination may have been troutworthy.

FIU Stadium → Pitbull Stadium – WP:NAMECHANGES says for us to "give extra weight to independent, reliable, English-language sources ("reliable sources" for short) written after the name change. If the reliable sources written after the change is announced routinely use the new name, Wikipedia should follow suit and change relevant titles to match." Meanwhile searching Google News for "FIU Stadium" returns only mentions in articles saying the stadium is now currently Pitbull Stadium. Articles talking about the rename in the immediate aftermath of the rename

Articles talking about "inside" the renaming deal

Articles mentioning Pitbull Stadium, but not talking about the naming rights

WP:CRITERIA says for "The title is consistent with the pattern of similar articles' titles." In the United States, stadiums are renamed pretty quickly to the sponsored name. College football stadiums renamed to sponsored names from non-sponsored names:

Soccer stadiums in the United States also get renamed pretty quickly to sponsored names, although there are fewer examples since most MLS stadiums have always had sponsored names.

USL Stadiums (since Miami FC is in USL)

  • Isotopes Park is one USL stadium who's article has NOT been renamed, but it's similar to the Chiefs below. The field was renamed but not the stadium.

I found three RM discussions about renaming stadiums in the US to sponsored names, all or NFL stadiums. Two decided in favor of using the most recent sponsored name Talk:Acrisure Stadium, AT&T Stadium/Archive 1, one decided to not include the sponsored field name in the article title which I don't feel is relevant (as here with FIU the stadium itself got renamed not just the field) but should be included Talk:Arrowhead Stadium. I think there isn't many RM discussions because it is commonplace to rename the articles for US stadiums and rarely results in contention.

PS, I formatted this and copied it over from my sandbox. WP:CWW Esb5415 (talk) (C) 18:12, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose for the same reason as the same RM above that closed ten days ago (i.e. sponsored names should be avoided where there is an established non-sponsored common name). An identical RM should not be started so soon after the previous one finished. Number 57 19:09, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Is there any policy for your position? WP:NAMECHANGES, policy, states Sometimes the subject of an article will undergo a change of name. When this occurs, we give extra weight to independent, reliable, English-language sources ("reliable sources" for short) written after the name change. If the reliable sources written after the change is announced routinely use the new name, Wikipedia should follow suit and change relevant titles to match. If, on the other hand, reliable sources written after the name change is announced continue to use the established name when discussing the article topic in the present day, Wikipedia should continue to do so as well. I gave four reliable sources written after the name change that used Pitbull Stadium and not FIU Stadium and cannot find any that use FIU Stadium. Are you able to find any reliable sources?
    As to this RM, I talked with the admin who closed the last RM on their talk page and they said to proceed with with a new request later if and when better evidence can be provided. I believe I have provided better evidence for this name change, namely reliable sources, RM discussions about US stadiums supporting the renaming, and WP:CRITERIA.

  • Procedural oppose. While I fully believe that "Pitbull Stadium" is the common name, and bemoan the complete disregard for Wikipedia policy shown by several commenters in the previous RM, we literally just had this discussion. If OP believes the outcome is unjustified, WP:MRV is the next step, not this. 162 etc. (talk) 19:27, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    How long is appropriate to wait until a new RM can be filed? I did follow step one of WP:MRV, which is discuss it on the closer's talk page and they said I can proceed with a new request later if and when better evidence can be provided. Esb5415 (talk) (C) 19:32, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @162 etc. a WP:MRV concerns itself with the question of whether the closer made procedural errors in the close (see WP:IMR), which wasn't the case in the above RM as the consensus of that discussion was oppose, so MRV wouldn't be the forum as it wasn't the closer who made a mistake based on pure reading of the discussion.
    However, the reason for the failure of the above RM that selective notification of only the soccer-related WikiProject created an false-balance/imbalanced set of editors commenting on the above RM, which I have now rectified by notifying the WikiProjects for American Football. I'd recommend you retract your procedural oppose and comment on the merit of the arguments brought by the proposer of this new RM instead. Raladic (talk) 02:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I fully support the argument. Pitbull Stadium is the name. I was the one who proposed this in the first place.
    That being said, I maintain my procedural opposition. If the previous discussion was improper, then it goes to MRV. If it was valid, then we can't open an RM a week later. 162 etc. (talk) 16:02, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    This new one was made based on the explicit recommendation of the closing administator: That this discussion would not have led to a consensus to move the page is clear, so instead of reopening the current request, I would suggest returning with a new request later if and when better evidence can be provided. @Dekimasu.
    The fact that @Esb5415 has created it a week later with the better evidence now provided and the now correctly broad notification of all relevant WikiProjects per WP:APPNOTE, rather than only selective notification of the soccer related one rectifies the issues with the earlier one and why it wasn't taken to MRV as procedurally per the admins recommendation.
    That's why I asked you to retract your procedural opposition @162 etc., since the proposer of this RM followed the recommended procedure from the earlier closing admin. I don't think closing this RM now and then taking the earlier RM to MRV is really in the interest of editors time. Raladic (talk) 16:13, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    While I don't necessarily agree, I do want to see this moved. I've struck the opposition. 162 etc. (talk) 16:19, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. We should use the common name for this, per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMECHANGES. While it might be appropriate to use a more generic non-sponsored name under some circumstances, in situations where it can be demonstrated that recent sources clearly use the sponsored name almost exclusively, then we should do likewise. The supposed convention mentioned above does not match sitewide naming policy.  — Amakuru (talk) 21:00, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support "FIU Stadium" is no longer the stadium's name, so sources are using "Pitbull Stadium" instead, and we should reflect that. This isn't as pedantic a change as "xyz stadium" to "abc field at xyz stadium"; the whole stadium's name changed, so the article title should change to reflect the new name (which will, of course, become more common the longer the stadium has that name). Evidence given by nom above justifies this name as the common name. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:19, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support move per norm for US stadiums where US media does adopt new names practically instantaneously and so we rename the articles in line with WP:NAMECHANGES policy. I content that the reason for this tighter adoption of names in US stadiums is likely due to the tighter partnerships between the US leagues (NFL, NHL, NBA, NCAA,...) and media reporting. This was overlooked in the prior move that was only cross-posted to the WikiProject on association football (soccer), which attracted a European slant of editors. As I mentioned in my comment at User_talk:Dekimasu#Question_about_recent_RM_discussion_on_Talk:_FIU_Stadium - this likely is what doomed the original above Move Request. I have now for this move request notified the appropriate Wikiprojects of College Football and American Football and local Wikiprojects to get a balanced set of editors for this MR. Raladic (talk) 02:25, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support this is actually commonplace: some entity's name is changed, then someone proposes a move before the media have caught up, it's rejected, and then the media catches up and suddenly it actually is common name now. Then it gets reproposed and usually accepted. Support per common name. Red Slash 22:37, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
