Talk:Husky Stadium

message: All I got was a red X, and when I right-click to bring it up, it won't.  Could someone please fix it. BiggKwell 05:29, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Problem with Image 

message: Does that map it thing at the bottom really help?  It think its a bit confusing.  Husky Stadium was just a temporary host for about a year or so, it really can't be considered a successor to the Kingdome.  --Kraftlos 01:52, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Map it 

message: I'm new to Wikipedia, so please excuse my ignorance regarding the rules for photos.  The image of Husky Stadium currently in use detrimentally portrays the stadium as it was shot when it appears to have been 1/8 full (likely during the pre-game).  How about a photo with a full stadium? 76.22.0.91 07:58, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The opening introduction seems a bit biased. One typically does not use the terminology "beating" to describe the results of a sporting event when one is trying to be unbiased. Additionally, why quote the USC quarterback about "seeing" purple, when the prior comments were focused on the noise? It just seems a bit unprofessional. 140.254.45.26 21:23, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bias and Consistency 

message: This article is in sorry shape, it's needed more (and better) references for a long time, an overhaul of the subject divisions and checked for violations of NPOV. It could also benefit from better pictures of the stadium, which I will try to get. City of Manchester Stadium (FA), Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (GA) and TCF Bank Stadium (GA) may be used as guides for improvements that can be made to this article. Again, I will continue to work on making necessary improvements.  Cumulus Clouds 20:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Major editing needed

message: For anybody inserting sources into this article, please read the guide on formatting citations properly. 
In addition, I believe both the sections dedicated to quotes about this stadium are inappropriate and would be better suited to wikiquote. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 06:29, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources

message: I recently uploaded an image that might be a good addition to the article: it shows the stadium under construction in 1920. I leave it to someone else to decide whether to use it, and if so how to rejuggle the positions of the current images: :Commons:File:Seattle - Husky Stadium under construction - 1920.jpg. - Jmabel | Talk 02:39, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additional image 

message: The accuracy of the claim that the renovation will be the most expensive in NCAA stadium history appears to be in error.  The link to the Seattle PI article appears to be broken.  The current renovation of California Memorial Stadium ($321 Million) eclipses the $250 Million stated in the article for Husky Stadium as being the most expensive among NCAA football stadiums.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The current name of the UW football stadium is "Husky Stadium".  But over the years it has also been called "Washington Stadium" or "University of Washington Stadium". It has bothered me, for example, that the "Home stadium" name on the page for the 1920 season is "Husky Stadium" (1920_Washington_Sun_Dodgers_football_team). The program for the inaugural game calls it "Washington Stadium".  Even worse, the team was not even called the Huskies until 1922.
It seems to me that the "Home stadium" field should be accurate to the era.  I am considering updating the links for the football season pages. For example, in the 1950 season page use  University of Washington Stadium.
But changing most of the links could be controversial. I don't know, it might even break some Wiki standard.  So, I hoped to get input if this is the right thing to do before I put in the research. Jeff.jay.dahlin (talk) 02:04, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The common name at the time should be used; the same applies for sponsored stadium names, which is why older Seahawks and Sounders articles use Qwest Field. I see no issue with changing the older season articles to use the names of that era. SounderBruce 02:11, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
