Hindmarsh Stadium → Coopers Stadium – Venue has naming right sponsorship, no longer called Hindmarsh Stadium David.goodchild (talk) 05:56, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose Hi David, the usual convention is to name the article for the original/non-commercial/non-sponsored name. This is because sponsored name can change frequently (eg. Docklands Stadium had three different names in it's first decade of operation) and even refer to different stadiums at different points in time (e.g. ANZ Stadium has referred to both the Queensland Sport and Athletics Centre and Stadium Australia).  Of course re-directs are created for the alternate names, and the current sponsored name is referred in the intro paragraph.  Let me know if you have any questions. -- Chuq (talk) 06:30, 7 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose Unless the sponsor's name sticks around for long enough to become a clear WP:COMMONNAME, such as Emirates Stadium, we prefer the original names for stadia, as Chuq explains. The major exception seems to be American stadia, which are rarely called by non-sponsor names at any point. --BDD (talk) 22:33, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Oppose - we very rarely use sponsored names. GiantSnowman 17:25, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
