Friel Stadium

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I cannot find any evidence that there is such a thing as Friel Stadium at Washington State University. There is a Friel Court at Beasley Coliseum at the University, which seems to be the basketball court at the Coliseum. Search for Friel Stadium turns up nothing but Wikipedia mirrors. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 00:59, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Beasley Coliseum, I agree with the nomination.--Milowent • hasspoken 15:22, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Do not redirect. There is no such thing as Friel Stadium. A redirect is erroneous and misleading. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 19:39, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Does it hurt, really? Apparently somebody thought it was called Friel Stadium.  I'm sure he's not the only one because the building is located on "Stadium Way".  So there is actually some evidence of it being a plausible search term.--Milowent • hasspoken  19:43, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, yes, it does hurt. Because of one person's error and Wikipedia's high profile on the World Wide Web, we now have at least nine websites propagating the false information that there is a Friel Stadium at WSU. See . And that is only the first four pages of a Google search. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 00:55, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirects correct exactly such errors and don't let them perpetuate. If you don't want those mirrors around forever, listen to me.  They may have to build a Friel stadium.--Milowent • hasspoken  02:16, 6 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Beasley Coliseum. Perfectly reasonable (if incorrect) search phrase. Redirect aids the search in this case. Redirect to the correct venue seems the superior alternative to deletion. Deletion might make the target harder to find. BusterD (talk) 17:48, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: I took the liberty of creating Friel Court as an obvious and useful redirect. BusterD (talk) 17:51, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
