Template talk:Sports leagues of Australia
Hi, I am relatively new to wikipedia, so tell me if I have done anything wrong. I changed the template slightly which you can view on its history page. I thought the old setting was a litle bit POV, well massivey POV in fact, so I changed it to make it easier for people looking up their sport. --Sociallydeviant 12:55, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Incorrect sport names[edit]
I just want to clear up a few misconceptions. I would have just changed the template directly but some people would get upset and try to get me kicked off.
Here are the correct titles:
"Australian rules football" should be "Australian Football"
"Football (soccer)" should be "Football"
"Rugby league football" should be "Rugby League"
"Rugby union football" should be "Rugby"
If anyone agrees or disagrees please post here. --Dlh1989 07:47, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- We simply use the names that the wiki articles have decided upon. Hence Association football, Australian rules football, Rugby league and Rugby union. If you disagree with that I suggest you discuss it on the talk pages for the respective sports. Bongomanrae (talk) 06:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Sports leagues[edit]
Anyone else think V8 Supercars is not a sports league?--Jeff79 (talk) 19:10, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
- It is a motorsport and has multiple teams competing for points in many rounds over a season --sss333 (talk) 03:39, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
Rugby[edit]
Shouldn't Super 14 be included in this list ? I know it is an intercontinental competition, but it still has several clubs from Australia. --Rulesfan (talk) 02:36, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
It says on the template ' Rugby, (Defunct)' How ever the link is to the Super 14 page which is far from defunct. It seems it is referring to the now defunct Australian Rugby Championship. One of two changes must be made: Either remove the words defunct or change the link to this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Rugby_Championship —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.154.143.26 (talk) 23:56, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
