Insanely Spectacular Moments 'Giddyup'

Untitled
editWeren't the Condors originally known as the Bakersfield Oilers when they moved to town? As I recall (and I unfortunately don't have a hard cite for this readily available), the name "Oilers" remained under the ownership of someone else and the team had to change names, becoming the Fog after one year. I certainly know there was a hockey team called the Oilers that immediately was replaced by the Fog the very next season. Alas, I didn't follow hockey close enough to remember the details.

- The Bakersfield Oilers were around in the 1940's according to hockeydb.com HockeyDB.com's Bakersfield Oilers page, but that was long before the Fog\Condors. nivek1385 00:11, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
2006-2007 Current Roster
edit- Yes, I know I have two players wearing the number 44. According to my source (the ECHL website itself), both of those players are wearing the number for Bakersfield, even though this is not actually possible.nivek1385 00:11, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Infamous Moments
editThe bit about Marty ordering a hit on Scott Gomez is completely baseless and entirely unsubstantiated. Unless a reference can be given for this piece of information, Wikipedia does not deal with rumors and heresay. This bit should therefore be deleted unless proper referencing can be given. Wikipedia is for facts and this is not a fact. Jason (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 18:58, 26 December 2008 (UTC).
Roster
editI'm not sure what wikipedia's thoughts on this issue is, but I was thinking that since the roster is constantly changing (and thus constantly out of date and incorrect), it would be better to simply remove it and add a link to the official roster at the bottom. Yeah, it's correct when I update it, but tomorrow it will be wrong again. For articles that have a bigger following, this wouldn't be a problem. However, since this page is undoubtedly not updated very often by people besides myself, it might be better to just get rid of it. Case in point, when I discovered this article it was TWO YEARS out of date. Thoughts? Jason (talk) 19:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Requested move 31 July 2015
edit- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: not moved. No prejudice against a new RM that discusses moving this articles to Bakersfield Condors (1998–2015) and having the base location as a dab page. Jenks24 (talk) 11:40, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
– Now that the Bakersfield Condors are the name of an AHL franchise (a league which is FAR better-known and getting more publicity), I think it's time we moved the article names. If the new San Diego Gulls can get the main title page, why can't the Condors? Tom Danson (talk) 15:20, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose on both counts conditionally - If the Charlotte Checkers are used as a precedent then I think we are supposed to have neither use Bakersfield Condors for one season and have Bakersfield Condors link to the disambiguation page. Also, for at least the ECHL Condors it should probably be Bakersfield Condors (1998–2015) since the article is about their time in both the West Coast Hockey League and ECHL (using the San Diego Gulls (1995–2006) as the precedent). The San Diego Gulls got the page name since the link originally went to the disambiguation page already since there were so many teams under that name previously and San Diego Gulls (Jr. A) wasn't a strong enough page to receive the main direct.

- Support first move only 76.120.162.73 (talk) 16:56, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose per Yosmiter. The one page refers to time in more than one league so cannot be disambiguated by league. -DJSasso (talk) 02:41, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
