The result of the debate was rename, keep redirects

I suggest we rename the templates with foo-basketball-stub, for clarity and for ease of guessing at the template form for editors less steeped in stub-ism than I. Her Pegship  (tis herself) 16:21, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Move, keep redirects. (At least at this time.)  Alai (talk) 01:59, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Rename Def a local term issue.  MBisanz  talk 23:44, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * As the original creator of the "hoops" idea, I VERY strongly support the changes. I was a dumb Wikipedian back then. :) — Dale Arnett (talk) 08:08, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong support. "hoops" is vague.  There's no reason not to be specific, and change it to "basketball". Brianreading (talk) 08:39, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Rename, I never liked "hoops", it's too idiosyncratic. GregorB (talk) 08:47, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Support, -rename to basetball. -- Jeff3000 (talk) 16:18, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
