Talk:Bundesliga (disambiguation)

Untitled

incoherent text moved from article:

In ice hockey the designation becomes 1st Bundesliga as the additive used for the Ice Hockey Bundesliga (DEL), after during the DEL establishment without the designation "bundesliga" first one did and the second highest play class end 1990s used years this designation.

Chess

There's a chess Bundesliga too! Thought I'd add that as an interesting snippet. Some German Bundesliga sports clubs are in fact collectives of teams playing several different sports - I'm thinking of Werder Bremen who have both a football and a chess team - this could be in the article but I need to do more research.

Many german sports clubs offer several kinds of sports. Football, Handball, Basketball etc. - Hullu poro

Winners

There shouldn't be Bundesliga winners before 1963/1964 because there wasn't any Bundesliga before this season. Before this, there was only German Championship which I think (but not 100% sure) was like the current 3rd Division, Regionaliga. Kingjeff

Contested move request

The following request to move a page has been added to Wikipedia:Requested moves as an uncontroversial move, but this has been contested by one or more people. Any discussion on the issue should continue here. If a full request is not lodged within five days, the request will be removed from WP:RM. —Stemonitis 11:39, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football#Naming_conventions_for_German-related_soccer_articles is where the discussion for this move is. To summarize, we all agree that it is a convention on Wikipedia to use a dash for a date range in a title and that Fußball-Bundesliga and all articles like it should be moved. Now this is where I need some admin help because it starts getting complicated and I'm not sure I have the right tools to get it done. 2. Fußball-Bundesliga also needs to be moved to Second Bundesliga per English naming conventions, but all the individual seasons for both Bundesligen (Template:Bundesliga seasons and Template:Second Bundesliga seasons) need to be moved to (for example) Bundesliga 2006-07 and Second Bundesliga 2006-07 respectively. Also, the article Fußball-Bundesliga needs to be moved to simply Bundesliga while that page should go to Bundesliga (disambiguation). Ok, so here it all is in list form:
- Fußball-Bundesliga --> Bundesliga
- Bundesliga --> Bundesliga (disambiguation)
- All articles like Fußball-Bundesliga 2006/07 --> Bundesliga 2006-07
- All articles like Second Fußball-Bundesliga 2006/07 --> Second Bundesliga 2006-07
- 2. Fußball-Bundesliga --> Second Bundesliga

Thanks a lot, JHMM13^(Disc) 06:59, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved Bundesliga --> Bundesliga (disambiguation). I have not obeyed the rest of the requests (removing "Fußball-" from names), because (see Bundesliga (disambiguation)) there are Bundesligen in other sports and games, not only football. Discussion. (It would also be useful to provide a list of all the names of the "All articles like"). Anthony Appleyard 12:33, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I've started another discussion on the subject at WikiProject Ice Hockey, of which I am a member. I'll let you know what the verdict over there is regarding this move. Thanks for you help so far, and sorry about the improper placing of this move request...it's my first time using this, JHMM13^(Disc) 17:22, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - After a few days, there doesn't appear to be any opposition in the ice hockey WikiProject. It is important to note, as it was in the main discussion, that Serie A links directly to the soccer league even though there are other Serie As. This is because the most known Serie A is the soccer-related one. The same situation exists in Germany where by far most of the people searching for Bundesliga will be searching for the soccer league, not the hockey or basketball leagues. What do you think?

    - When I hear "Bundesliga" I immediately think "top level of German football". The only other Bundesliga I even knew existed (before reading this article of course!) was the Austrian Bundesliga - but I could easily find that through a link to the disambig page. I think Bundesliga should be moved to Bundesliga like the above proposal. ugen64 09:37, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wrestling

There is a Bundesliga for "team wrestling".

It has no article, at present: Bundesliga (wrestling)

User Intent for English BL page

While there are indeed numerous Bundesligen, the average English-language user wants football, and should be sent directly to the football-BL page. Perhaps Wikipedia has stats on the BL disambiguation page, and how often each listed link is clicked. (If the results are not overwhelmingly pointing to the football page, I'll happily retract this request. But I'd bet at least 2/3 of users want football.)

The German "Bundesliga" might point instead to the disambig page, but that should not dictate the path for the English version. Yasha1969 (talk) 22:00, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
