Talk:San Diego Gulls (disambiguation)

Merge

I think this is pretty cut and dry, but figure I'd put it up for discussion anyway. D-Rock 18:23, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

I believe this referred to San Diego Gulls Girls being redirected here, as opposed to another team. The content about the cheerleaders has since removed as trivial. Flibirigit (talk) 22:30, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Demerge

I think it's time to demerge these teams into the following:

• San Diego Gulls (1966-1974)
• San Diego Gulls (1990-1995)
• San Diego Gulls (1995-2006)

I propose to disambiguate by dates. Doing so by league would be insufficient, as WHL or IHL could be one than one league, and the third Gulls team played in the WCHL and ECHL. I also feel each is as notable as the other and am opposed to leaving one team on the San Diego Gulls article itself. The "San Diego Gulls" would become the disambiguation page. Flibirigit (talk) 21:03, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

• Agreed. These are three completely different franchises that just happen to share the same name. It's as crazy having three different teams in one article is it would be to have three different biographies in one article. Resolute 22:18, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
• De-Merge. per both of the above. -Djsasso (talk) 16:25, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

It has been done. Anyone wanna help disambiguate? Flibirigit (talk) 17:10, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm also going to CFR the corresponding player categories to disambiguation those too. Flibirigit (talk) 17:15, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Proposed Move

Because the only team presently using the San Diego Gulls name is the AHL franchise San Diego Gulls should be the article for the AHL team while this disambiguation page should be moved to San Diego Gulls (disambiguation). Looking for consensus before making the move. --CASportsFan (talk) 19:34, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

• Support - but not yet. Let's wait until the San Diego Gulls (Jr. A) conclude their season...THEN we can make the move. Tom Danson (talk) 23:58, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Support this plan of action - That's a good idea...I think that should be the plan. --CASportsFan (talk) 02:44, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
• Support, makes sense as they're THE Gulls now that the Jr. A team season has concluded and they've changed names. 216.70.227.35 (talk) 21:20, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
  • Support - but wait until the end of at least the WSHL playoffs (of which the current Jr. A Gulls are still playing). The playoffs are still only in the semi-finals so it should end around April 1 and then it fine to redirect and change the name of the Jr. A team to the Sabers. Yosemiter (talk) 17:59, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
• Support — makes sense. I've just disambiguated the rest of the links that were incoming, so that should lessen the load when it comes time to do the move. wia (talk) 03:53, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

So I was attempting to update the San Diego Gulls (Jr. A) to the Sabers today and found that this redirect (San Diego Sabers) already exists to a TV show. I don't want to lose the edit history of the Jr. A team by copy and pasting over the redirect. What are other options? Yosemiter (talk) 19:13, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Yeah cutting and pasting is a big nono. Just get an admin to make the move when this is a problem. I have completed the moves per the above. -DJSasso (talk) 16:37, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
