Talk:Scotiabank Arena

message: Why is it important to note WWE events?
----
The WWE section seems rather irrelevant, that info would seem to belong in a Randy Orton or SummerSlam article. I don't see much of a connection with the arena, if an attendance record or something was set by the event it would make more sense. I'm going to delete it, if anyone disagrees we can discuss it.--BoyoJonesJr 20:16, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  First Section 

message: one sentence says "The arena is popularly known as "the ACC" or "the Hangar" (the latter nickname coming from its sponsorship by Canada's largest airline, Air Canada)."  if I'm not mistaken this is only part of the reason for it's nickname, as in my opinion it looks a bit like a Hangar, and I believe that this might be part of the reason for it's nickname being "The Hangar".

message: This section is a mess!  I originally put in a note not to put an indiscriminate list of musicians in the Concerts section.  Apparently, many users did not read it and added them in anyways.  They also have no verification!  I added the cleanup tag in that section as well.

Should WWE be included in the Air Canada Centre article?  Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 17:33, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't. These articles should left to legitimate regular use tenants and others like the WWE should be kept as "entertainment" and nothing more. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 18:11, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm thinking of a compromise solution: for temporary tenants such as WWE, concerts, political conventions, and video game competitions (and even state funerals), they can be put in a separate section away from the primary tenants (ice hockey, basketball, and lacrosse).

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hi there. I am a student who has been assigned a project to find errors on Wikipedia article pages. 
Comment 1: I believe there is a violation in the articles reference of the:"Air Canada Centre has, from its initial design to completion, revolutionized many concepts included in new arenas and stadiums built since then.", which does not comply with Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View Policy Wikipedia:Neutral point of view I believe there should be an external link to suggest that the Air Canada Centre truly played a revolutionized concept in the formation of new stadiums built since then. 
Comment 2: In addition, I believe stating that: "Due to financial difficulties, the building ownership was returned to Canada Post in 1993. The Toronto Raptors purchased the building from Canada Post the next year." in the Air Canada Centre#History section deserves a citation from an outside source to verify additional information users may have on this change.--Gregm1996 (talk) 17:37, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: I think Gregm1996 is quite correct from a reference perspective. I don't believe they're violations of the NPOV however. They're both fine statements but yes they are making claims that need references to back them up. Canterbury Tail talk 16:10, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Violation of Wikipedia Neutral Point of View Content Policy 

message: I don't have any sources other than the fact I was in the last postal unit to move out of the facility in 1989, but there are some factual errors about Canada Post here. 
Canada Post decided to close the facility and move operations to an alternate more modern circa 1970s letter processing faculty on nearby Eastern Avenue. A structure with easy access to highways was designed specifically for transport truck bulk delivery of mail. By 1989, all of the old building's work was transferred here.
Not true. This seems to come from a historical page on the site, but has factual errors. The main function of the building - being a sortation plant - was taken over by the South Central Letter Processing Plant on Eastern Avenue when that facility opened in, I think, 1976. But Station "A" letter carriers were out of the building for years afterwards, as was a parcel depot on the ground level. Station "A" carriers covered a lot of downtown, the FSAs of M5B, M5C, M5E, M5G, M5H and M5J, basically University Avenue to Sherbourne, from College/Carlton Streets south. The carriers were moved out circa 1988, along with the parcel unit. The carriers went to several other facilities in downtown Toronto. Parcels either to SCLPP or Gateway in Mississauga, I believe. In 1987, Station "A" boxes, which had been on Front Street at Yonge, was moved into the facility, and was the last to move out, near the end of 1989 to its current location at 25 The Esplanade. 
As I said, I am speaking as I worked at "A" boxes till the building closed, otherwise I have no published source. Canada Jack (talk) 02:30, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
