Gambrinus ligaCzech Liga — Gambrinus is the sponsor name, the name was known as Gambrinus 1. Liga or 1. česká fotbalová liga. Although česká fotbalová liga is another thing, the title of the highest division should be Czech Liga, as per Portuguese Liga. —Matthew_hk tc 06:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

MTC, you have hit the nail on the head. La Liga and Serie A are the terms used by English speakers in English language texts, and therefore what we should use by WP:UE which says that we copy their usage. What is more English than what English speakers actually use? We do not invent English language terms by translating words into phrases not used by English speakers, and that is why we have the policy we have. Knepflerle (talk) 14:07, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose move : Gambrinus liga is what this league is called in English sources, and so what we should call the article by WP:UE. We do not overrule this just by saying "this is not a good name" without justification. The sponsor argument does not overrule English usage either - see Veltins-Arena, Emirates Stadium, Suwon Samsung Bluewings... if a change in sponsor leads to change in English usage, then we change the article then. We do not invent "English" usage that is not used by English speakers in the meantime. Knepflerle (talk) 14:02, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Czech 1. liga or 1. liga (Czech Republic) to use the league's proper short name minus sponsorship (per UEFA). пﮟოьεԻ 57 21:56, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • We do not remove sponsorship if the sponsor name is part of the predominant English usage - this is an unambiguous consequence of WP:UE, see the examples above - where should Emirates Stadium or Allianz Arena go? The name you propose is not only ambiguous between sports, but little used in English - English does not use a dot as part of its ordinal convention. Compare [1] to [2] - the proposed title is neologistic invented usage that would be barely seen outside Wikipedia. Knepflerle (talk) 11:42, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Any additional comments:
As Per Premier League, it is NOT Barclays Premier League , so try to use a better article name. The Liga often refer as 1. Gambrinus liga and the second level just 2. Liga inside Czech Rep.(1. liga is a local name, as English won't call the full name of Premier League but for other, Scottish Premier League), UEFA.com use Czech Republic's 1. Liga to avoid the sponsor. Name such as First (Football) League of (the) Czech Republic or Czech Republic First League should be fulfil WP:UE. Matthew_hk tc 11:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This move failed only two days ago! Is this a case of WP:POINT, nominating again so soon, trying and trying until you get your own way? Sorry if that sounds harsh, but that's what it looks like to me. - fchd (talk) 11:06, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. Reading the discussions above I see little support for removing the sponsor's name, and no rationale to do so in terms of WP:AT, and this has been pointed out previously. I do see a good suggestion that this should be discussed before raising another move. Please read WP:AT carefully, start an informal discussion as suggested, and if this comes to a conclusion then and only then come back to RM. Andrewa (talk) 15:30, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. The move request is reasonable but wouldn't Czech First League be more appropriate title? We have Czechoslovak First League article and the proposed "Czech 1. Liga" is basically a linguistic Czenglish hybrid. - Darwinek (talk) 15:29, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support most cup competitions do not include sponsor name for example Scottish League Cup which is really the Scottish Communities League Cup or the Premier League which is actually the Barclays premier league. The consensus on the majority of articles is not to include the sponsors name. I could list many more examples. 14:41, 7 June 2011 (UTC)Warburton1368 (talk)
  • Weak oppose Neutral I know this is somewhat off the beaten track, but the answer to question four of this quiz makes for interesting reading. The BBC – which does not carry any advertisements within the UK – is generally a good barometer of whether we should or shouldn't use the sponsor's name, and it calls it the Gambrinus liga. Here's another example. —WFC— 16:54, 7 June 2011 (UTC) EDIT: Going neutral. Timbouctou's rationale is pretty compelling.WFC10:03, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Most reliable sources seem to name the league as Gambrinus. Here are some more - Guardian stats and RSSSF. Eldumpo (talk) 20:37, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. It is a long-standing consensus to avoid sponsor names in articles about individual competitions and I don't see what makes Gambrinus any different. However, the target name should be Czech First Football League (the Czech First League is currently a redirect to the premier ice hockey competition). "Czech First Football League" would be recognizable, precise and natural per WP:AT ("naturalness" refers to what readers are likely to type in looking for the article and I doubt anyone who is not already aware of the sponsored name will go looking for Gambrinus in search of Czech football). As for reliable sources - again - WP:AT says that when there are several possible alternative titles the choice between them is made by consensus. FIFA.com calls it "1. Gambrinus Liga", Soccerbase calls it "Czech League", FourFourTwo simply goes with "Czech league", WSC uses "Gambrinus Liga" (adding the description "Czech top flight"), UEFA.com calls it "Czech First League". Also, the second level (currently called Czech 2. Liga) should then be moved to Czech Second Football League for consistency. Timbouctou (talk) 00:01, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Here are some further refs showing Gambrinus [3] [4] [5]; it appears there are more showing this name than not. In any case why would we go with 'Czech First Football League' (or indeed Second Football League) as none of the sources are showing that. Eldumpo (talk) 08:07, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Did you even read WP:AT?
  1. "An article title is a convenient label for the article, which distinguishes it from other articles. It need not be the name of the subject; many article titles are descriptions of the subject."
  2. "The ideal article title will resemble titles for similar articles, precisely identify the subject, be short, be natural, and recognizable."
  3. "Article titles are expected to be a recognizable name or description of the topic."
  4. "Titles are expected to use names and terms that readers are most likely to look for in order to find the article (and to which editors will most naturally link from other articles). As part of this, a good title should convey what the subject is actually called in English."
  5. "Titles are expected to follow the same pattern as those of similar articles."
So how is Gambrinus (a legendary king and unofficial patron saint of beer, who lends his name to a beer brand, which in turn sponsors the top football league) consistent with any of the above? And besides, the sources are pretty confused as to the exact name of the league - is it the "1. Gambrinus league", "First Gambrinus League", "Gambrinus Liga" or "Gambrinus liga"? "1. Gambrinus liga" is used officially in Czech - but then again, the Czech Wikipedia calls it generically "1. česká fotbalová liga" (and conversely, calls the second level "2. česká fotbalová liga"). If any source is to be taken as reliable it's UEFA ("Czech First League") or FIFA ("1. Gambrinus Liga"). UEFA's policy is to drop the sponsored name and directly translate the rest. FIFA goes with the original native name. Timbouctou (talk) 09:03, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I did read WP:AT, but did you need to add the "even" to your question? Re 1, it need not be the name of the subject, but it certainly can be. 3 and 4 are similar points - Gambrinus can be argued to be a recognisable name and one which readers will look for, partly because reliable sources are using it. 2 and 5 are also linked - the reason sponsored names are not given to most other leagues is presumably because sponsored names are not generally quoted in the sources e.g. most references will be to La Liga not Liga BBVA, and it's not the case that the community has decided Liga BBVA should not be used as it is a sponsored name. Also, I don't think UEFA/FIFA should necessarily be given more weight than other reliable sources, noting that FIFA call it Gambrinus anyway. Eldumpo (talk) 14:35, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No. The reason why sponsored names are not given to most other leagues is not "because sponsored names are not generally quoted in sources" but because they are subject to change, which is the reason why reliable sources generally avoid them in the first place. The only reason why Gambrinus is used by some sources is that the name has been around long enough to stick. Toyota Cup has been around long enough (24 years to be exact) to get called that way in a variety of sources - but we don't call it that way. Btw why exactly wouldn't we give UEFA more weight compared to Soccer24.com ("Gambrinus liga") and the Daily Mail ("Gambrinus Liga"), ignoring FourFourTwo ("Czech league") or Soccerbase ("Czech League") or Soccerway ("Czech Liga")? As for the BBC, they called it simply the "Czech league" in 2000, in 2001, in 2004, in 2006, in 2007, in 2008, in 2011. As for The Guardian, they also called it "Czech league" or "Czech League" in 2001, in 2002, in 2003, in 2004, in 2007, in 2008, in 2010. Sure, they all occasionally use "Gambrinus" - but only when it is clear from the context that they are talking about the top Czech football level ([6], [7], [8], [9]). You will very rarely see "Gambrinus" used without additional qualifiers clarifying what it is, unlike "La Liga" or "Serie A" (which are both just native names common enough to be understood on their own - nobody reading sports articles is likely to confuse "Serie A" with the Somalian top level or "Liga" with the Equatoguinean league, the same way "Barcelona" alone usually refers to the Spanish club, not the one in Brazil or in Ecuador). As for FIFA.com - it calls all leagues exactly the same way they are officially called in their native languages - hence the Barclays Premier League, Clydesdale Bank Premier League, Liga BBVA, Jelen SuperLiga, T-Com 1.HNL and Serie A TIM to name a few. Timbouctou (talk) 15:48, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There's some supposition in what you write above. Is there any evidence, that say, there are more reliable references to "Liga BBVA" than "La Liga"? You don't know why the sources are using Gambrinus, but the assumption must be that they feel the term is in common enough usage for their readers to understand. I don't see the relevance of posting links to what the league was referred to in the past, it should be about the most recent usage for a particular source. I think your statement about "context" is debatable - I would suggest that all references to Gambrinus or "Czech Liga" etc have some identifier within the article to indicate the context - no source is going to start talking about the Czech league all of a sudden.Eldumpo (talk) 09:05, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "You don't know why the sources are using Gambrinus, but the assumption must be that they feel the term is in common enough usage for their readers to understand." Exactly. If the media thought that the term is common enough they would not feel the need to describe it further. That's the very definition of "common enough". You can find articles talking about "SPL", "La Liga", "Serie A" or "Premier League" in which there is not a single identifier or adjective explaining what those phrases mean because it is widely understood e.g. common. You can't say the same for "Gambrinus". So what we have here is a name used by maybe half of the sources, which is not in line with the majority of other similar articles on Wikipedia, used for something which is equally often (if not more often) referred to descriptively in sources - and when the name is used in those same sources it needs to be explained to the reader what it means. It's like arguing that Gabriel Batistuta should be moved to Batigol.
The Guardian and RSSSF references only use a qualifier above the name in the same way they do for all the other leagues, to help categorise. The Mail reference refers to Gambrinus Liga and does not add a note that it is the "Czech league", although of course this is implied because of what the article is generally talking about, hence the third point below. Anyway, I think we've both set out our views on this and there's not much more to add. Eldumpo (talk) 14:38, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry but the Guardian "reference" you quoted is merely a statistics table. The seven Guardian sources I quoted are all actual articles, e.g. pieces of text written by people paid to write about football (granted, the first two were written before the league adopted the sponsored name). But it still seems strange that people writing about Czech football as late as 2010 somehow managed to avoid mentioning what is allegedly the top level's common name. In addition, the table uses "Gambrinus Liga" (with the capitalized second word). Also, the same source also calls the Russian top league simply Premier League, while we call it Russian Premier League. Interestingly, it also calls Spanish top flight Primera División. Regarding RSSSF (which is itself a borderline source in terms of reliability) uses the "1. Gambrinus liga" form, which is the official Czech name, used by FIFA.com as well. Interestingly, you linked to the season table on RSSF but you did not link to the overview article on RSSSF which collectively calls all editions from 1993 to the present "I. liga CR" (and in fact it doesn't call editions prior to 2001-02 anything at all). Doesn't look like a strong case does it.
  • "I don't see the relevance of posting links to what the league was referred to in the past, it should be about the most recent usage for a particular source." - Could you point out where in any wiki policy "most recent usage" is recommended? "Czech league" or some descriptive variant thereof has been used for at least ten years in all sources, which means the majority of the material ever published on the subject in English uses it. Official UEFA yearbooks use it among others, some of which are pretty recent by definition.
  • "No source is going to start talking about the Czech league all of a sudden." - No. No source is going to talk about "Gambrinus liga" all of a sudden. They are going to talk about the "Czech league", "Prague club", "Czech champions" etc all of a sudden. Which is pretty indicative regarding the commonness of the term, or more precisely, lack of it. Timbouctou (talk) 13:55, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
When I said "Czech league" in that sense I meant generically, so was including Gambrinus i.e. no article is going to suddenly start throwing in unqualified terms that have nothing to do with the rest of the article. Eldumpo (talk) 14:38, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm generally against those descriptive article titles. "Czech First Football League" appears to be one of them, who uses that? We have an article on Serie A, not Italian First Football League. Regarding the move request, I'm inclined to oppose since the sources do seem to be picking up the sponsor name. - filelakeshoe 12:31, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
We are not debating the general principles here but the way the top Czech football level is or should be named. And many sources call it descriptively. Timbouctou (talk) 14:30, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • The current title is unambiguous AFAIK, and is at least one of several commonly-used titles in English-language sources. I'm not inclined to believe that we gain anything by moving to an ostensibly more "neutral" title which will by necessity either be uncommon in English or a disputable translation at this time. Give it a few years and we might have a clearer answer: we're not working to a deadline here. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) - talk 13:11, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gambrinus ligaGambrinus Liga – Don't worry, I'm not trying to relitigate those previous RMs. Rather, this article seems to be the only member of Category:National association football premier leagues which is titled in sentence case, judging by a quick scan.

Right, but we don't always observe native-language capitalization conventions, such as song titles, where there's a specific guidelines. But in RMs, we've often favored English capitalization, such as for French universities. If we had other premier leagues titled in sentence case, that would be one thing.

League names

[edit]

Sorry to reopen this discussion, but today's news has made it necessary: the league is looking for a new sponsor which would change the name from the Gambrinus liga to something else. This should be our wake up call to move the article somewhere else, in line with all other league articles, which don't use sponsor names in the title, as sponsors are never going to stay forever. Indeed the fact that we have an article titled "1994–95 Gambrinus liga" is a complete nonsense, since the league wasn't sponsored by Gambrinus then.

On the same note, the Czech 2. Liga has since halfway through the 2012–13 season been renamed to the fotbalová národní liga ("national football league"), so I've been itching all season to move the league article and the 2013–14 season article (the first full season under the new name) to reflect this change somehow. My two suggestions (I'm open to more) are:

  • name the articles "Czech first league" and "Czech second league", or Czech 1. Liga and Czech 2. Liga, as descriptive titles, or
  • go with "Czech first league" for the Gambrinus liga, which is what UEFA call it:[11], and Czech second league or 2. liga for all seasons before 2013–14 and Czech national league or národní liga for all seasons thereafter (this would be my preference).

  • Support but with the addition that the old articles should in the lead of the article indicate that the official name was a such Blah Blah Blah Liga due to sponsorship.

Comment. It might be better just starting with a discussion rather than a page move request. It seems the originator is now not in favour of the proposed move, so should the RM be closed/reopened? Is there any evidence that any of the above names are in common usage? What about moving it to the new sponsored name for now and revisiting the sources once the season is underway? Eldumpo (talk) 07:25, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I tried that, but no one commented. I support a move to Czech First League per Cloudz as well - if it's what UEFA calls this competition, then that should be good enough for us. Moving this page around all the time will create a lot of menial work changing links and text and moving other articles, so it would be good to come to a consensus before the new season begins. - filelakeshoe (t / c) 11:44, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Its not just about what UEFA call it. I see Soccerway refer to 'Czech Liga'. [13] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eldumpo (talkcontribs)
Alright, tonight will be the deciding match of the 2013–14 Czech 2. Liga and I have next season's 1. Liga article ready, since it looks like we're never going to reach a consensus here can I just create it under whatever title I like? These move discussions are roadblocks to people trying to create content sometimes… - filelakeshoe (t / c) 09:56, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Looks to me like 5 supports and no opposes. Certainly in light of the sponsorship expiry the page cannot remain in the current place. One user citing Soccerway is not really a big "roadblock". Czech Liga can be a redirect. By the way the top two teams in the 2. Liga may not win promotion, since licenses need to be obtained first, and only České Budějovice have a sufficiently equipped stadium as of the moment. C679 11:40, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    5 supports but all to varying targets. Czech Liga is pretty ambiguous, though I guess so is Liga I and anything which doesn't specify football. There are currently 3 teams which can be promoted from this season's 2L, Hradec's stadium is fine too and Táborsko have made an arrangement to play in Příbram if they get promoted - [14]. - filelakeshoe (t / c) 12:56, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

1. česká fotbalová liga is at least consistent with 1. národní hokejová liga, the two things which the ambiguous Czech 1. Liga / Czech First League can refer to. - filelakeshoe (t / c) 12:57, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fotbalová národní liga, and all season articles referred to by the first support vote above (but which I can't find).
