Talk:Truist Park

Redirects
Are the redirects on this article necessary? I realize there's other Truist sponsored stadiums and parks, but none of them are as high profile as the ballpark in Atlanta. It seems like overkill, but I could always be wrong. - Nemov (talk) 02:41, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I would say so. Someone who wants info on the professional baseball stadium in Charlotte or High Point but doesn't know which one is which will benefit from the hat notes. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:48, 10 November 2021 (UTC)


 * The hatnote is a bit long. If it can't be shortened a little, then a DAB page might be a better option. If we get a fourth professional baseball stadium with the horrible name "Truist", then a DAB page would be a best. BilCat (talk) 06:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Since there are now four other stadiums/ballparks named "Truist X", if created Truist (disambiguation), and added hatnotes to it on all the related articles. Truist currently redirects to Truist Financial. I'm not sure the bank qualifies as the primary topic, but I haven't checked the page views. BilCat (talk) 01:26, 12 July 2022 (UTC)


 * I checked the page views, and most are a few hundred to a.couple of thousand views a month. Both Truist Park and Truist Financial average about 25,000 views a month, so there is no primary topic. As such, I'll move the DAB page to Truist. BilCat (talk) 01:34, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree the change is an improvement now that there's a fourth sports venue with Truist in the name. Nemov (talk) Nemov (talk) 17:53, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Concerts
@BilCat I don't have an objection to future concerts (assuming they're sourced). However, should every concert be listed here anyway? I could see mentioning notable concerts similar to how it's covered at Shea Stadium. On the flipside, would any of the concerts listed on this article pass a ten year test? I don't think think any concert listed is that notable. Should we just remove the entire table and just mention the football game and few of the concerts in a small paragraph in "other events." What do you think? Nemov (talk) 19:25, 18 March 2023 (UTC)


 * WP:NOTEVERYTHING that happens should be included. Listing all concerts held at this venue would violate WP:NOTDIRECTORY. There has to be something specifically noteworthy about the concert to merit mentioning. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:43, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I've removed the table and much of the unnecessary detail from that section. Thanks! Nemov (talk) 20:04, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

SunTrust Park
Ab editor has made a series of changes regarding the old name of the park, SunTrust Park. One was made in the lead, they also changed the image of the park to an outside of the park shot featuring the logo, and then added the logo. These are all unnecessary, but if people disagree by all means included it. I've rolled this back to the status quo until there's support for the changes. Thanks!.

 * I disagree with you Nemov on this. Even if stadiums have new names, former logos should be kept for history. Abhiramakella (talk) 15:19, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Instead of finding consensus for the change Abhiramakella has gone ahead and made the change again without any support. Nemov (talk) 16:17, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @Abhiramakella are you just going to ignore this process and force your change? Please revert and find consensus. Nemov (talk) 18:47, 19 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I moved the former name furter down in the lead similar to Oracle Park. Nemov (talk) 03:12, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

"Stable version" of the second sentence
The second sentence, for over a year, said "it is the ballpark of...". As this phrase sounded quite odd, I changed it to "It is the home field of..." Nemov seems to have a problem with this and changed it to "it is the home ballpark of..." and claimed that is what it said for the last three years. A quick look at the history demonstrates this is incorrect; however, I will AGF and allow that Nemov looked only at a version from 3 years ago, not 1 year ago. Regardless, his edit summary to me saying "You should get out more" took me by surprise as an attack, and I wish he would strike that and apologize. Fred Zepelin (talk) 00:01, 29 May 2024 (UTC)


 * You've brought up the alleged WP:NPA at my talk. So I'll set that aside since it's baseless. "Home ballpark" is widely used term in baseball to refer to a home baseball stadium. I'm not sure why "home' was removed, but I restored it and you've forced your edit in again after being questioned about it. I would ask you to restore the status quo until you have support for your change which is basic Wiki policy. Nemov (talk) 00:07, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * For some context, please look at this collection of edits. The same user went through all of the MLB stadium articles and made unilateral changes to the second sentence. In most cases, I was simply reverting to the state that they were all in before that mass change, and I'll grant that in making a standard edit, Truist Park's second sentence now says "home field" instead of whatever was there before. I don't think "home field" is inaccurate and it's probably the most common way of stating that the Braves play their home games there. Fred Zepelin (talk) 00:09, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Looking through those edits some of the articles were called baseball stadiums or home ballparks. You've making unilateral edits as well, but this article ballpark was used. "Home ballpark" was how it's been described for most of this article's existence. You're not solving a problem here or making an improvement. Nemov (talk) 00:18, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I would be quite surprised if 'home field' was the most common phraseology. I've never really thought about it much before, but now that I am thinking about it, 'home field' feels much more like a football term with 'ballpark' serving as baseball's counterpart. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 03:15, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I think "home ballpark" is a bit redundant... "the ballpark of the Atlanta Braves" works just fine.. if it is their ballpark of course it is the home one.. "home field" just feels wrong also... people rarely refer to baseball stadiums as "fields". Spanneraol (talk) 15:09, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't object to that change, it's probably why no one really objected when "home" was removed a few months ago. I've updated the article. Nemov (talk) 15:12, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Agreed. "Home ballpark" is redundant and "home field" is not baseball parlance. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 02:32, 30 May 2024 (UTC)


 * This topic is also being discussed here.. Nemov (talk) 02:43, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
