Talk:Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union

Redirect

Personally, I don't feel this article enough for an article. There hasn't been sustained coverage on the issue as far I can see, and certainly not enough for an individual article, hence me trying to find a suitable redirect. Obviously parts of this article could be merged into another article. Perhaps Prince of Wales's feathers would be a better redirect, with a bit added to the sports section of the article.

Thank you for the suggestion. I will add further information to the article first and then we can further discuss if the article can stand alone or should be moved to a heading of another article. ThanksTG11TG15 (talk) 15:41, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Removed deletion proposal after finding multiple sources of controversey and public opinion about controversy of WRU logo and others asking for WRU logo change. Happy to discuss further. ThanksTG11TG15 (talk) 17:03, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Campaign to change the WRU logo → ? – Wouldn't it be much better to change the name of the page to Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union? There is evidently enough attention been paid to the symbolism of the logo, to warrant an article. The news articles cited also describe the long history of the logo. But the only notable 'campaign' or oppposition has been a petition in 2020 (the other petition, cited only to the Twitter feed of the person who set it up, is clearly not of any note as far as Wikipedia is concerned). Otherwise this article is quite a biased and selective synthesis of what has been said by the press. Sionk (talk) 09:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

If you want to create a page titled "Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union", I would definitely help you with that. I don't necessarily think this page needs any change. I think that links between this page and "Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union" would suffice. For now, leave this page as it is, but after you've made the "Logo..." page we could reconvene to discuss a potential merge. Does that sound acceptable?

I.d. support a move and restructuring of this article to Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union, as well as general restructuring for the article to be more balanced about the logo and its accompanying controversy by some in Wales, as the controversy alone may not be notable nor a "campaign" and more on the logo would provide more context.

Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union seems like a good target. At the moment the scope and title inherently favour negative criticisms over neutral or positive aspects; see WP:CRITS. This doesn't mean coverage of criticism necessarily needs to change in the new article. Jr8825 • Talk 15:02, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Support move to Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union, along with a restructure. Criticism is obviously part of the article, but I do not think there are sufficient sources to support a separate article. Llwyld (talk) 22:58, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Ok, I'll move the page. Thanks for your inputs. Titus Gold (talk) 17:19, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

It would be appropriate to allow more time for discussion, per the notice above "The discussion may be closed 7 days after being opened, if consensus has been reached". Llwyld (talk) 22:13, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, I should've been clearer. I'll move the page to the "Welsh Rugby Union logo" or "Logo of the Welsh Rugby Union" after 7 days if this is the majority opinion. Titus Gold (talk) 22:46, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
