I've moved this back to just Baseball Ground, as I think we should try and avoid putting "The" in front of article names unless they definitely need it. It's obviously fine for albums, films etc, which have a precise title you can put in quotes, but "Baseball Ground" is just a name - the "the" can go in lower case and is just a part of speech. sjorford 07:56, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- But it's the 'the' that makes it obvious that one is talking about the Baseball Ground, not just a baseball ground. I'm not keen on having the definate article at the beginning of Wikipedia articles, but in this case I think it is needed. The Dell gets to keep its definate article. [comment added by anon]

- Well, the capital "G" makes clear it's a proper noun - we might have an article called Baseball ground which would be about the general term. Of course, a notice at the top of the article would be a good idea in this case:
- This article is about the stadium in England named the Baseball Ground; see baseball ground for baseball stadiums in general.
- Not so sure about The Dell - Dell (stadium), perhaps? -- sjorford 14:45, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Ownership
Here's a thought: how could Derby County have bought the ground from Sir Francis Lay in 1924 when he died in 1916? - Green Tentacle (talk) 23:41, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- I think that they bought the ground from Lay's estate. Velociraptor888 11:26, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
