Talk:Hamilton Stadium

comments

Does anyone have an idea where in Hamilton this stadium is going to be built? PKT(alk) 22:44, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Ans: it's at Balsam & Beechwood, the site where Ivor Wynne formerly occupied. PKT(alk) 12:58, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

The URL for www.timhortonsfield.ca is a broken link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.38.117.46 (talk) 19:32, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, I fixed it. Grande (talk) 20:50, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

The references and links are quite messed up. FNs 1 through 6 no longer appear in the wiki article; the "first" FN noted in the article is number 7, but that link is an archived link that does not actually lead directly to the point that it is supposed to reference. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 15 are either dead links or archived links that also do not support the points that they are supposed to support.

I think this article needs some work to get it up to the appropriate standards.

Tim Hortons Field → Hamilton Stadium – Name changed, pending new sponsor JaredTamana (talk) 02:53, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

• Comment Can you please cite sources? The Tiger-Cats website avoids mentioning the stadium by name, although here it uses "Ticats Field", not "Hamilton Stadium". 162 etc. (talk) 14:19, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

  Here are some:

  • CHCH: Arkells announce return of ‘The Rally’ concert to Hamilton Stadium
  • The Spec: "...both teams will be playing at what’s being called Hamilton Stadium — the City of Hamilton website and Ticketmaster have both switched all mentions over to that name — for a while"
  • City of Hamilton (primary source): Hamilton Stadium
  • CBC: "Smyrniotis is hoping to welcome the Mexicans to Hamilton Stadium, formerly Tim Hortons Field"

  Support per above. 162 etc. (talk) 16:09, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

• Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page moves. GiantSnowman 11:40, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
• Support - we should avoid using sponsored names (and that's certainly a general rule for soccer articles) to avoid having to move and re-move every time... GiantSnowman 11:44, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

  Sponsored names are perfectly acceptable if they are the WP:COMMONNAME. In this case, the sponsorship has ended and recent reliable sources appear to be using "Hamilton Stadium". See WP:NAMECHANGES. No Wikipedia policy or guideline asks us to use a less-common title "to avoid having to move and re-move every time." 162 etc. (talk) 16:08, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

• Support, I was hoping there'd be a permenant name by now but it sounds like it's going to be "Hamilton Stadium" for at least a while. BLAIXX 12:36, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
• Support: There appear to be enough reliable sources supporting the change to satisfy the conditions of WP:NAMECHANGES. I am wordsmyth (talk) 17:08, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
