the stadium can be scaled down...

[edit]

...this is possible for every stadium by closing some of the block, so imho it is unnecessary to mention it in the article... --MrBurns (talk) 20:58, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion Roof policy

[edit]

I think that as AIK is one of the main tenants of Friends Arena this should/could be added to the article: http://www.aikfotboll.se/Article.aspx?contentID=8005

Pronounciation

[edit]

Friends arena is an English name. Does it really need phonetics? If so it shouldn't say Swedish pronounciation, because the name is not Swedish. Murtimurt (talk) 22:31, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The name is indeed Swedish. "Friends" is the name of a Swedish organisation that owns the naming rights to the stadium. "Arena" is the Swedish word, not the English one that happens to be spelt identically. The pronunciation given in the article is how the name of the stadium is pronounced.

Requested move 20 August 2017

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved DrStrauss talk 11:45, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]



Nationalarenan för fotbollFriends Arena – This is the official name of the stadium according to its users (AIK and The Swedish Football Association). It's also the name presented at the stadium's own website. I know it's a sponsor name, but we must face that the arena is commonly known as Friends Arena. "Friends Arena" gets over 100 million hits on Google, while "Nationalarenan för fotboll" only gets 47,000. Besides, many stadiums have sponsor names as their article name, e.g. Emirates Stadium, King Power Stadium and bet365 Stadium. If we won't use "Friends Arena", we can at least use Nationalarenan instead of the current name which is clumsy, unsourced and rarely used. Mattias321 (talk) 12:32, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support move to Nationalarenan. Well established that we don't use sponsored stadium names where an alternative is available (hence City of Manchester Stadium not Ethihad Stadium, Dean Court not Goldsands Stadium etc). Number 57 09:09, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support move to Friends Arena. "Nationalarenan" means "the national stadium" but it's not a name, it's a function. When a stadium becomes a national stadium, it doesn't mean that it assumes the name National Stadium (unless, of course, there is an official name change). However, if consensus is against Friends Arena, at least the article should be moved to something that shows it's the national arena for men's football. Women's is Gamla Ullevi. Sjö (talk) 13:07, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support move to Friends Arena per nom. Current name is unrecognisable, unnatural (both of which also apply to "Nationalarenan") and unconcise. I was surprised to see the article at this name because I've never heard anyone call the stadium anything but "Friends Arena". BlueSwede92 (talk) 15:51, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
