2015 in sports

History section

A question has been raised at Talk:Bandy#History whether the history section for the sport should be moved within the article. It seems to be common to have the history section for a sport close to the top of the article about the sport (e.g. in the articles about association football, ice hockey, and field hockey). Is it commendable to follow this practice in all sports articles? Snowsuit Wearer (talk|contribs) 11:12, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal for Naming conventions (sports teams)

I've made a proposal to change the naming conventions for sports teams so that they fall in line more closely with general naming convertions. Participation would be appreciated at this page. --ArmstrongJulian (talk) 11:03, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sponsorships in sports

Shall Wikipedia write about sponsors (in general) and their importance for a sport? One user at talk:bandy seems to be very opposed to this idea, saying it goes against Wikipedia principles. Please share your opinion at that page! Skogsvandraren (talk) 12:51, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"their importance for a sport" is something Wikipedia should include in its coverage of a sport, of course. Not "sponsors (in general)" --eg, list all known sponsors simply because we have the facts with sources. --P64 (talk) 19:15, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Superlatives in sports

Category:Superlatives in sports, which is within the scope of this WikiProject, has been nominated for renaming to Category:Perfect scores by sport. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you.

World team of the year

I noticed redirects world team of the year / world team of the year 1996 -- these lead to a magazine article. Shouldn't these be disambiguation pages? Should the yearless one point to Team of the Year ? -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 07:32, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps so, if there were any use in article space. But the redirect now used [1] only on multiple user pages (mainly User:AlexNewArtBot) and in discussion or notice of likely copyright violation (that the list of annual winners violates the magazine copyright?).
If the target page is appropriate, the specific target should be World Soccer (magazine)#World Team of the Year.
Evidently we have no page World Team of the Year. --P64 (talk) 20:04, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
