* Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.)

* Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.

Requested move 24 March 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. I note that this simply reverses a previous move. Andrewa (talk) 10:55, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mississippi State Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs → Mississippi State Bulldogs – Athletics no longer uses "Lady Bulldogs". That is no longer the WP:COMMONNAME. ESPN doesn't use "Lady". Their media guides do not use "Lady", and neither do their press releases. SEC doesn't use "Lady"... I think you get the point! I would propose that Mississippi State Bulldogs basketball, Mississippi State Lady Bulldogs basketball & Mississippi State Lady Bulldogs softball, as well as their categories, be moved to Mississippi State Bulldogs men's basketball, Mississippi State Bulldogs women's basketball and Mississippi State Bulldogs softball. 🍀 Corkythehornetfan 🍀 03:58, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support move per nom. Cbl62 (talk) 04:08, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Do it per nom. Lizard (talk) 04:55, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support move per nom. Thank you for this bit of housekeeping here. Ejgreen77 (talk) 11:07, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support move per nom. Is there also a way to have a bot move all the men's and women's sport pages, categories and templates too? Rikster2 (talk) 12:00, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is a bot to move categories, which I'll request for the moves after this page is moved. I'm guessing the pages/templates will have to be moved manually. 🍀 Corkythehornetfan 🍀 16:19, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
