Some errors

[edit]

The official stadium name is "Stadion im Borussia-Park" ("Stadium at Borussia-Park") not only Borussia-Park. But this therm is also used as a short form of the name... The Borussia-Park is the whole area around the stadium with several training pitches and more. This are minor errors but the next is a big one. Hence I remove it from the article. There is no artificial turf in the actual stadium. Actually they renew the natural grass pitch these days. From the german web site http://www.borussia.de/de/home,117007,0.html:

"Gegen Hannover auf neuem Rasen. Der Rasen im BORUSSIA-PARK gehört zu den besten der Liga..."

It says: "Against Hannover on new turf. The turf at the BORUSSIA-PARK is one of the best in the league..." The artificial turf is installed at one of the trainings pitches around the stadium. 194.138.18.131 12:49, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. According to the club's website here and here, the stadium's name is BORUSSIA-PARK (all capitals, but no "Stadion"), and most on-line sources refer to it as "Borussia-Park". As a minimum, we'll need a definitive source for the proposed new name, and evidence that the common name includes the "Stadion"; neither of these have been provided so far.

  • Oppose per WP:USEENGLISH, WP:CONCISE, and WP:DAB. "Stadion im Borussia-Park" is just a descriptive phrase meaning "stadium in Borussia-Park", and we would not add any form of disambiguation without a need to disambiguate. There is no other Borussia[-]Park from which to disambiguate this, and if there were, we'd do it in English, e.g. "Borussia-Park (stadium)".  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  05:36, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
