Sporting Clube de Goa → SC Goa – Consistency with current naming conventions in Category:Football clubs in India. – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 13:10, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Don't think "SC Goa" is appropriate — because — official name of the club is not 'Sports Club Goa' or 'Sporting Club Goa'; it's "Sporting Clube de Goa" and by far it's an unique Portuguese characteristic, which usually can't be credited with general abbreviations! Hope it's better to make it unchanged until official changes in club name :) Billjones94 (talk) 08:49, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

If Football Club Internazionale Milano can be Inter Milan and Real Madrid Club de Fútbol can be Real Madrid CF then I strongly believe that Sporting Clube de Goa can be SC Goa, without a single doubt. Current naming conventions in Category:Football clubs in India suggests that as well and this RM also fulfills the criteria for WP:CONSISTENT. You should support this proposal here and at the Sporting Bengaluru talk page. – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 09:04, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

Sporting Clube is Goa is the official name of the club and it doesn't need to be changed. SC Goa makes it generic, forgettable, and difficult to tell it apart. Same as Sporting Club Bengaluru, the abbreviations can be used in other places when required, but please don't make the abbreviations the official names of clubs. Thank you. :) Writereditor19 (talk) 09:29, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  @GiantSnowman: How about Sporting CG ? – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 13:32, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Meaningless nonsense. GiantSnowman 13:34, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Yeah, just like SC de Goa. – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 13:48, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Examples like RC Celta de Vigo says otherwise. GiantSnowman 13:54, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Sorry If I was rude, then whould it be okay if I change the nomination to SC de Goa? – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 13:58, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Apology accepted. You do not need to change the nomination. Others have supported your original idea. GiantSnowman 14:14, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  I'm changing, because SC de Goa sounds cool!. So don't mind if I do. – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 14:18, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

• Updated nomination from SC Goa to SC de Goa per the suggestion of the GiantSnowman. – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 14:22, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  I have reverted partially - you cannot change the nomination part way through when others have already !voted. GiantSnowman 14:23, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

  Fine! – 𝙰𝚔𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚟™ 🗿 14:24, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

Oppose:

Sporting Club to SC is fine in Indian football circuit.

but the club name here is something in Portuguese, Sporting Clube de Goa should be fine Indfootball editor (talk) 14:35, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
