Talk:1981 Connecticut Huskies men's soccer team

Page name
I disagree with the page move from 1981 Connecticut Huskies men's soccer team. The consensus for moving season pages indicated that we should start with the 2013–14 academic year, and all other sports followed that convention. There is no reason for soccer to be different. If we are going back further, we should establish that via consensus, rather than having the sports follow different conventions. Billcasey905 (talk) 11:40, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

1981 UConn Huskies men's soccer team → 1981 Connecticut Huskies men's soccer team – To conform with consensus on WP:CommonName of the program established at Talk:UConn Huskies. This page was moved without discussion and in contravention to that consensus. Billcasey905 (talk) 23:48, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Support as per nom, and move 2000 UConn Huskies men's soccer team and 2011 UConn Huskies men's soccer team as well. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 01:53, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Oppose as suggested, given that standard naming convention for a team's soccer season is to include 'season' in the title - see e.g. 2021 LA Galaxy season etc. In addition, the parent article is listed as just UConn Huskies men's soccer and any sub-articles need to match that (taking into account any changes in team name over time (like when Kansas City Wiz became Kansas City Wizards and then Sporting Kansas City, hence why we have 1996 Kansas City Wiz season and then 1997 Kansas City Wizards season etc.) although I am not aware of any here). As such instead I would support a move to 1981 UConn Huskies men's soccer season. GiantSnowman 11:27, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment The standard for US College Sports has been to use "team" instead of "season." While I would have no objection to a change, I think such a change should be discussed among all college sports projects, such as WP:WikiProject College football, WP:WikiProject College Basketball, and WP:WikiProject College baseball, among others as it would impact literally tens of thousands of articles.  The point at issue here is between the name "UConn" versus "Connecticut."  Do you have any view on that? Billcasey905 (talk) 11:41, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment The consensus from the RM that OP linked is that "UConn" is for articles concerning the team from 2013-14 to present, and "Connecticut" for articles concerning the team prior to that date. 1981 UConn Huskies men's soccer season would thus be an anachronism. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 16:09, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I have made my position clear - use whatever team name that applied during the specific season, as we have done with 1996 Kansas City Wiz season and 1997 Kansas City Wizards season etc. GiantSnowman 21:54, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
