Name

[edit]

In linking articles, should it be referred to as Hertfordshire Mavericks, or benecosMavericks? - Mcstove (talk) 12:27, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

benecos is a company and Hertfordshire is a place and what they referred to themselves as for several years before the sponsorship came along, so WP:COMMONNAME and other wiki naming conventions make me inclined to keep it as Hertfordshire. Global-Cityzen (talk) 12:37, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I came to that conclusion after looking around some other similar teams - thanks! I guess a tricker question will come up regarding UWS Sirens' rename to Strathclyde Sirens. Mcstove (talk) 10:34, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The team have now been renamed Saracens Mavericks since Saracens F.C. have bought a 50% stake of the team. Contary to the above-mentioned name change for sponsorship reasons, I think this merits changing the name in linking articles. Mcstove (talk) 12:07, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
