Rename the page: Stage Front Stadium

Following the sponsorship agreement reached for the naming rights between RCD Espanyol de Barcelona and the North American company Stage Front, the RCDE Stadium is renamed as Stage Front Stadium.

Stage Front Stadium → Cornellà - El Prat Stadium – It makes no sense to have this article named under a temporary name due to sponsorship reasons, unlike every other article about Spanish stadiums. The article for the FC Barcelona stadium is Camp Nou (not Spotify Camp Nou), the article for Real Sociedad stadium is Anoeta Stadium (not Reale Arena), the article for Atlético de Madrid stadium is Metropolitano Stadium (not Civitas Metropolitano), and so on. 83.42.191.26 (talk) 16:50, 24 November 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BegbertBiggs (talk) 23:58, 2 December 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 02:58, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

• Why the spaced hyphen? Should that be an en dash? —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 23:05, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
• Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page moves. GiantSnowman 13:55, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
• Move to Cornellà-El Prat Stadium - I agree that a sponsored name should not be used, but the one proposed by the nom does not look right. GiantSnowman 13:57, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

  Cornellà–El Prat Stadium per MOS:ENBETWEEN? —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:27, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

  Potato, potato... GiantSnowman 21:32, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

It should not be changed because there is no clear policy on wikipedia on this matter. Both criteria are valid. Some examples that demonstrate this are Bank of America Stadium, Gillette Stadium, FedExField, MetLife Stadium, SoFi Stadium, MHPArena, Red Bull Arena (Leipzig), Allianz Arena or Emirates Stadium.--Medol (talk) 10:12, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Plenty of RM consensus. GiantSnowman 21:32, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose. OP has presented no evidence that "Cornellà - El Prat Stadium" is the more commonly-used name. There is no policy-based reason not to use a sponsored name. 162 etc. (talk) 16:26, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
• Oppose. Unlike Camp Nou, Anoeta, Metropolitano, the stadium has always had a sponsored name. Estadi Cornellà-El Prat was only used because there was no sponsor available at the time of opening and borrowed from its location. La Fuzion (K lo K) 20:41, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relist; evidence of what the WP:COMMONNAME is would be helpful in determining consensus BilledMammal (talk) 02:58, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

• Support a move of some kind. The majority of the "exceptions" provided above are either North American (where the sponsor name situation is significantly different) or have never used a non-sponsored name. O.N.R. ^(talk) 04:24, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
• Oppose. Time to end this habit of violating WP:COMMONNAME policy for sports stadiums, just because people think they are temporary. Per WP:NAMECHANGES and most other policies, we go with what the sources are using at the time in question .And that's the current name. No need for any change.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:04, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

  Addendum - since evidence was requested above, here are some recent sources using the current name: [1][2]  — Amakuru (talk) 13:10, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
