I believe it would be in the best interests of this section if someone sorted out the incoherency that rests in the naming of the sunderland's stadium. Check out the follow-through link to compare the claims.
[edit] Style of the article
"Benfica desperately needed to stop the rot!" "Many Benfica fans went far enough to stop the bulldosers."
The style of the article is far from encyclopedia text. Is there anyone who knows about the subject matter to go through this text?
Also, the Luz-light controversy is not very well explained. If Luz doesn't refer to light at all, why was the new stadium designed for maximum natural light? Is it not possible it refers to both the place _and_ light? CarlosCoppola 08:26, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
I am somewhat annoyed to find out that most of this information was stolen from me. I work on www.planetbenfica.co.uk and the majority of this article is copied word for word from the new stadium section.
Also, I would like to clarify that the areas of the artcle being criticised, for example the lack of clarification between whether Luz is the area of Lisbon or a reference to light, and the fans stopping the bulldozers have nothing to do with me. The parts I have written may also not be "encyclopedia texts" but they were in no way written to be.
Anyone who wishes to discuss the article or the stadium can post on the planetbenfica forums as i am an admin there.
the benfica stadium naming belongs to the original stadium, which was demolished to enable the construction of the new stadium for the euro 2004 tournament. the naming relates entirely to the district name and not to the quality of light that was always there in the original stadium.
as a second generation stadium largely of the 1960's and 1970's, it had no roof, apart from around the media and VIP area.
