Dungloe GAA → C.L.G. An Clochán Liath –

Official name, per page content, crest, facebook page, casual mentions, etc. 86.40.107.14 (talk) 01:44, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – recent edits to change the name in the article have left the lead sentence incompatible with the cited source. No cited source supports the new name proposal, as far as I can tell. The article needs to be fixed whether or not a name change is considered. Dicklyon (talk) 06:58, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And the above is what? It's the official name of the club in the Donegal Gaeltacht's largest town. The sources provided above are consistent with that. It's like having the New York Giants at "New York American football team" or something. --86.40.100.241 (talk) 20:02, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - An Clochán Liath redirects to Dungloe but fair enough, town and its team can be in different languages. However I notice that here in en.wp some counties have all teams as English spelling "GAA" (Gaelic Athletic Association), while some counties like Category:Gaelic football clubs in County Donegal are predominantly in Irish spelling "C.L.G." Cumann Lúthchleas Gael. Is there some guideline somewhere on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Gaelic games which specifies on using English "GAA" or Gaelic "CLG"?

I've restored both languages in lede and infobox. User 86.40.107.14 the reason the infobox has two lines | club gaa = Dungloe GAA | irish = C.L.G. An Clochán Liath is to represent both languages. Your change to double-Irish and deleting all English per | club gaa = An Clochán Liath | irish = C.L.G. An Clochán Liath goes against the infobox format.

It would have something to do with Gaeltacht areas. If it was in a region that isn't a Gaeltacht it would likely be in English. CLG Naomh Anna, Leitir Móir, for example, is in Galway, not Donegal. Gaeil Colmcille CLG is in Meath. An Clochán Liath is based in Donegal's largest Gaeltacht town, so logically it should more than follow suit. --86.40.100.241 (talk) 04:59, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
