Keep the Idaho Stampede wiki, do NOT merge with SLC

To merge Idaho Stampede into Salt Lake City Stars. Klbrain (talk) 04:02, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to see this page maintained as is. A nice way to maintain the history of the old Idaho Stampede team in Boise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.18.162.139 (talk) 16:03, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge closed, given that there was no support in over a year. Klbrain (talk) 09:01, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm re-opening discussion of this within the context of the Wikidata implications of having these separate. Right now, all the other G League teams that moved or were renamed have a combined article and a combined Wikidata entry that describes the entity (and it is the same entity) throughout the rename and move. This is the one anomaly. Therefore, for consistency and integrity, these should be combined. Much of the article for Idaho Stampede is simply copied from the other making it nearly 90% similar. The Awards and Honors, Notable Players, NBA assignments and callups are nearly identical. -- Fuzheado | Talk 20:06, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I was mistaken. I thought G League teams followed the same pattern as AHL and other minor league hockey teams in having a separate article for each incarnation. (Minor League Baseball, for the record, is a mixed bag, as some articles have one team across moves, others have separates, and some cases have one article for multiple teams when there's a case where a higher level franchise moved to a city and took over the name of the prior lower-level club in that city, as with the new San Antonio Missions.) As all other G League teams that haven't folded are at the name of the current incarnation (and the ones that did fold are at the name of the last incarnation if there were more than one), then there's no reason for this article to be any different. I support the merge. oknazevad (talk) 20:16, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Basketball is a bit of mixed bag too, see Vancouver Grizzlies vs. Minneapolis Lakers. This article was originally moved to SLC Stars (so it has all the edit history of the Stampede when they were active), like other G/D League teams, but was swiftly recreated via cut-n-paste over the redirect a few days later without much discussion. I have argued in the past for some teams to keep their old pages with previous history, such as the Bakersfield Jam, but was swiftly told that "this is they way we do it, why change?" Either method (one page per team or one page for a franchise) works per WP:NOTPAPER and both meet WP:GNG on their own. But yeah, if this is kept separate, then the Stampede info should be chopped out of the Stars page and just linked here. Yosemiter (talk) 13:45, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Coaches section

Hi all, the section "coaches" is missing in this article. We have the same section in ALL the other G League articles. Thanks in advance Patrickpedia (talk) 11:40, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
