Article name

As of today, the Hilton Theatre has been renamed the "Foxwoods Theatre"; the article I suppose should be renamed but I am not very good at doing that.JeanColumbia (talk) 15:19, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the rename (move)!JeanColumbia (talk) 18:48, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All the articles that link to Hilton Theatre still need to be updated. Fryede (talk) 18:53, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll start updating the links, let's see how far I get.JeanColumbia (talk) 19:01, 9 August 2010 (UTC) Taking a break now, will check back in a bit, made progress.JeanColumbia (talk) 19:33, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think that all links to Hilton Theatre are now updated, with the exception of a few userpages, which I am not inclined to edit.JeanColumbia (talk) 12:38, 10 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
