History info

Thanks,

Team name

The team name shouldn’t be changed until official. As all information is rumour until officially confirmed by the team.

“Basically official” isn’t official. AidenT06 (talk) 12:35, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's confirmed by multiple sources, plus physical sources such as the shop sign was changed. So the team name was changed. MysticCipher87(alt-account) (talk) 12:43, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is one of them sources the team, a driver, a owner or NASCAR itself? AidenT06 (talk) 13:16, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple NASCAR news reporters, and physical sources such as the shop sign, team haulers, etc was changed MysticCipher87(alt-account) (talk) 13:20, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So, its not offical? AidenT06 (talk) 13:21, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is official though just not annouced. Which in some cases nascar news isn't through annoucements or stuff like that. Theres physical sources such as the shop sign team haulers, etc where changed.

So the page name needs to reflect those changes. MysticCipher87(alt-account) (talk) 13:30, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have no doubt that it will be, eventually changed. However, it hasn’t yet. So we can’t change it. So hold your horses, and be ready for the moment it really happens. AidenT06 (talk) 15:15, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Has anyone bothered to read WP:COMMONNAME / WP:NAMECHANGES. We must wait until reliable sources start using the new name predominately. this has not happened; we don't even have an announcement of the change. MysticCypher87, you are out of line here. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 13:37, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.on3.com/pro/news/kroger-executive-reveals-reason-for-sponsorship-switch-from-jtg-daugherty-to-rfk-racing/

Reliable sources from yesterday are still using "JTG Daughtery Racing" @MysticCipher87(alt-account): Please either revert your move, or if you can't, go to WP:RM/TR to support my request. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 13:53, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's a blog. Not a reliable source that would have a visible editorial structure. Even then, it still doesn't confirm anything. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 14:04, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

https://ae-engine.com/terms-of-use-agreement/ Daily Downforce also appears to accept user-generated content. We cannot use this source on Wikipedia. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 14:06, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right now the most authoritative source is a speculative Tweet from Bob. I love Bob but until there's a formal announcement, it's probably best to just leave it as is. HPayne62 (talk) 01:27, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The change is now offical. Just needs moving ETC, AidenT06 (talk) 23:35, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We should still wait to move per WP:NAMECHANGES; Give time for reliable sources (and the average, non-fan reader) to get accustomed to the change and establish predominance. ―"Ghost of Dan Gurney" _(hihi) 23:57, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So similar do what we did with the Goodyear 400? 45BearsFan (talk) 02:22, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think a better example would be Andretti Global. That page was moved the February after the rebranding was announced, and looked like this in the interim. ―"Ghost of Dan Gurney" _(hihi) 03:21, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

JTG Daugherty Racing → Hyak Motorsports – JTG Daugherty was renamed/rebranded to Hyak Motorsports. https://tobychristie.com/nascar/cup-series/jtg-daugherty-racing-being-rebranded-to-hyak-motorsports/ MysticCipher87(alt-account) (talk) 22:50, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose for now per WP:NAMECHANGES - As I said in the discussion just above this one, we need to wait to give time for reliable sources (and the average, non-fan reader) to get accustomed to the change and establish usage predominance. Please see Andretti Global for an example from last year of a racing team who went a rebrand and who's article didn't move until the next February. Please just be patient. ―"Ghost of Dan Gurney" _(hihi) 23:01, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Ghost summarized it perfectly, we should give it time until the average non diehard gets used to the name. 45BearsFan (talk) 01:57, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - this is now the actual name of the subject of the article. As for "the average non diehard", that is what the old name being a redirect is for. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 09:11, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
