message: please refrain from adding bronze designation.  The IIHF does rank them third in their tables, however the NHL does not provide a ranking at all, and in the IIHF biographical register none of the team is given a placement in the tournament.  I believe it is more accurate to say "lost in semi-final" but third is okay, however there was clearly no award of any kind so a medal coloration is inappropriate.18abruce (talk) 13:24, 24 September 2016 (UTC)

message: The 2022 World Jrs, the 2022 World Srs, maybe the 2022 Winter Olympics. It seems that Czechia is being used now, by the IIHF. Perhaps we should consider changing the title of this article to Czechia men's national ice hockey team. GoodDay (talk) 20:37, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. We should definitely use Czechia. Danda Panda (talk) 03:23, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. Wikipedia should reflect reality. IIHF switched to Czechia in December 2021 based on the request of the Czech Ice-hockey Federation.Helveticus96 (talk) 04:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. Wikipedia has the common name policy (WP:COMMONNAME), and commonly used name in ice-hockey context is now Czechia. Koristka (talk) 07:40, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. It's time to accept reality. Czechia prevails. --CzechReb (talk) 08:14, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. The official name being used in ice-hockey for that team is CZECHIA. Like FRANCE, not FRENCH REPUBLIC. Honzejk (talk) 13:43, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. We should do it in the case of the women's team (and junior teams) as well. It is practically the same case. IIHF uses Czechia, we can see it in TV broadcasts, makes sense to use it there. --Martin Tauchman (talk) 14:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Team name does not always match with common country name: United Kingdom - Great Britain men's national ice hockey team, Taiwan - Chinese Taipei national football team, Russia - Olympic Athletes from Russia at the 2018 Winter Olympics... so it IS thinkable to rename this, independently of Czech Republic article. At least in the infobox. Chrz (talk) 16:33, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: But it could be used as an argument when we will decide on the name of the country's article. Martin Tauchman (talk) 16:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: Agreed. It's high time Wikipedia accepts the short name Czechia. The name is catching on more and more and there is no way back. Sergiovision1234 (talk) 20:19, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: United Kingdom - Great Britain men's national ice hockey team. Two separate countries? And in that case there's no evident similarity like with Czech Republic and Czech-ia. Don't underestimate readers, do not give them "better, filtered and harmonized reality" just because you suspect they suck in geography. Chrz (talk) 21:27, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

text: It's time to change the main article as well. Czechia is here to stay, the footbal association of Czechia annonced the switch on May 24th, 2022 as well. https://facr.fotbal.cz/komunike-ze-zasedani-vv-facr-ze-dne-24-5-2022/a16419 Helveticus96 (talk) 05:18, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Admin note: Changing the name of the country-article is not an option that is on the table. This talk-page here isn't the place to discuss that article's name, and there is a moratorium on discussions of renaming that article in place for the next several months. Do not continue it here or now. DMacks (talk) 17:11, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

text: It is already used in the article about the 2022 IIHF World Championship. It will be used in the case of the next tournaments as well. Therefore, it makes sense to unify the article's name with the name used there. And I think that the best way to do that is to rename this article. Martin Tauchman (talk) 18:02, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

text: And I moved it back. There is consensus above, the discussion was highly canvassed, and it wasn't a properly advertised requested move. --StellarNerd (talk) 20:19, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: , you have a lot of them to undo, then. But FWIW, you're free to open up an RFC on the entire matter. I'd suggest WP:HOCKEY as the location, as this deals with only ice hockey. GoodDay (talk) 20:24, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
