Talk:Roundnet

Incorrect Article Title/Content
Hi there - I am new to this, so I'm not certain this is the right place to address this concern, but the content of this page, which is under the title Spikeball, is actually mostly descriptive of the sport of roundnet.

Spikeball™ is a trademarked brand name (Kankakee Spikeball Inc™), which manufactures and sells equipment used to play the sport of roundnet. There are numerous other companies that make similar equipment, under many different names, and all of those products are used to play the sport of roundnet.

Roundnet is a sport with rules similar to 2v2 beach volleyball, but played using equipment like that depicted in this article, which was originally made by Kankakee Spikeball Inc.

This article is misleading and jeopardizes the accuracy of public knowledge regarding the important distinction between the generic name of the sport (roundnet) and the trademarked brand name (Spikeball™)

I think the easiest fix, given that most of the information on this page accurately depicts the sport of roundnet, would be to change the title of this article to "Roundnet", make a few changes to the content, and move some of the brand specific information to a new page called Spikeball™. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.15.112.107 (talk) 17:38, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
