Article title[edit]

I'd like to move this article to Allocation money. By now, it is definitely the common name. Also, the current title can be confused with the Allocation process or Allocation Order in MLS which is used to allocate certain new signings to teams. Thoughts?

This appears uncontroversial. I will perform this move tomorrow unless there is a dispute. DemonJuice (talk) 20:36, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Use in other leagues[edit]

Other notable leagues, such as the National Women's Soccer League, also use allocation money with different rules than MLS. Should this article be broken into sections for leagues that use it? Or should this article be made more generic to describe the concept, with detailed rules described on pages specific to the leagues? -71.34.68.140 (talk) 16:02, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Added a proposed article that includes NWSL with MLS at Draft:Allocation money. -71.34.68.140 (talk) 21:08, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

{{Db-author}}'d the draft and implemented its contents in the article, in the spirit of WP:BOLD and to help contextualize the growing number of references to allocation money in NWSL-related articles. -71.34.68.140 (talk) 22:58, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
