Talk:Barclays Center

message: Merely one sentence in the article refers to corruption. Let's make a section. Countless people screwed by corrupt government, all so one billionaire could get richer.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.232.191.16 (talk) 15:29, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Not enough space given to abuse of the public

message: Doesn't this article seem a bit skewed towards the anti-arena faction?  -bfoaz
:Yes. 
:The same can be said of the Atlantic Yards article, which also requires some major revisions if it's going to actually hew to a neutral point ofarena on its own nee view.

replies: text: Agreed.  The article needs to be about the arena, not the controversey surrounding it.  There should :be space for the pros and cons, though.  But not the whole article. Milchama 17:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

text: Agreed that there should be more balance, do not see the need to separate this issue into 2 articles. The arena is the thrust of the project, separating it into its own article is pointless. Tommyill 03:15, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Brooklyn Nets Arena, if built will be a sports arena, not a mixed use housing/commercial development.  The Atlantic Yards is the whole development, including the arena.  The arena alone should be treated like all other stadiums and arenas listed on Wikipedia past, present and future, with its own standalone article. Milchama 01:06, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: It was announced in the New York newspapers, that the new arena will be named by Barclay's Bank. user:mnw2000 20:37, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it was reported that it will be called Barclays Center.  The name, however, has not be officially confirmed yet.  Milchama 12:38, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There are no other "Barclays Center"s anywhere. Why is (Brooklyn) in the article name? It should be moved to Barclays Center. (edit: yes, Barclays Center is the official name: LA Times) (NY Times) (Bloomberg)) --Zimbabweed 20:09, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Because the person who originally "moved" the article copied the content of Brooklyn Nets Arena into the Barclays Center article, and deleted the original article, replacing it with a redirect, not keeping the edit history intact.  The Barclays Center (Brooklyn) article is a temporary name until an admin can correctly move it.  Milchama 20:14, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  To be named by Barclay's Bank 

message: There is a third center in the NYC metro area. The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center is situated in Flushing Meadow. If the paragraph is meant to say, that the Barclays Center is the second NEW sports venue with the term center in the area, then say NEW. However, why is the word center so important? Wouldn't it be more interesting to state that the Barclay's Center is one of five sports venues under construction in the area? (Red Bull Park, Prudential Center, Barclay's Center, Citi Field, the New Yankees Stadium).  user:mnw2000 20:17, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The tennis center is NOT a major league sports arena.  It is not a corporate named building that hosts an NBA or NHL franchise (as opposed to arena, colesium, garden, fieldhouse, etc.).  Milchama 20:41, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well that is rather arbitrary. It is a sports venue and it is called center. user:mnw2000 02:39, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I agree, whether they are called "centers" or not is pretty irrelevant. There is nothing to distinguish a "center" from an "arena" or anything else you listed in this context. Is there some kind of point you are trying to make beyond "people keep calling stuff in NY centers"? Recury 20:28, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Second CENTER? 

message: This section is written like an editorial in some random newspaper.  It probably wouldn't hurt to delete that whole second paragraph, would it? Kjscotte34 (talk) 11:50, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

message: "Unfortunately, what Brooklyn deserves and will not get is world class architecture."
Let's at least try to pretend that this is neutral...  TJohnson (talk) 21:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Evident Bias 

message: Do we really need nine examples of their other arena work? I cut it down, although anyone if free to change in one for another if it shows the variety of work they have done. thanks--Aichikawa (talk) 01:43, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ellerbe Becket's other work 

message: Obviously, if Coldplay performed on December 30, 2012, December 31, 2012 is NOT the first time since September 2005 that they've played in NYC.

message: Thought this would be an interesting idea, as a few other sports stadiums in America list them. However, the list would be quite long, so perhaps create a new page on concerts that have happened, and then add an link of said page here? Cahlin29 (talk) 05:57, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
