Talk:List of Indycar races

Establishment
Currently in the establishment stage of creating race pages for all current IRL Indycar races. Following in a similair fashion to the series of current NASCAR races format, various details include: Doctorindy 15:09, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Each race has its own page, titled as the current name of the race
 * Each race has an infobox Template:Indycar race infobox with various information:
 * Race logo (uploaded and labled according to wiki standards
 * Track, sponsor, previous race names, distance
 * Notations of first open wheel race and first IRL specific race
 * Race results in table form, as has been established on wiki already. Since many races extend previous to the formation of the IRL, or stem from what was at one time a Champ Car race (either USAC or CART), the tables are listed in seperate but sequential order.
 * Next/previous race box at the bottom Template:Indycar next race

Page titles
For simplicity reasons, the page titles have been established/adjusted to include only the title sponsor, and not any additional/optional "presenting sponsors." The presenting sponsor(s) is still mentioned prominently on the individual page, but due to the overly long titles, they do not seem necessary to include for the title. Television presenting sponsor also are not to be included as part of the page title, but should be mentioned on the page text/info box, etc. Doctorindy 20:45, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I propose to remove the sponsors from the article's names. --NaBUru38 (talk) 19:52, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Move
I am going to slightly change the title of this page to List of Indycar races so the word "Current" is no longer in the title. So that the page doesn't have conflicting information, and so we can put other "Indy-style" race names on here (past "Indy-car" races), and not completely limit them to IRL-sanctioned events, although the IRL events are the most noteworthy.
