[edit] new format

IMHO, this new format is crap. It is not in alphabetical order, and the wikicode is too complicated to correct it. Can someone please put it in alphabetical order, or else we're being penny-wise, pound-foolish. DJR (talk) 16:19, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

forget it, i'm in the process of doing it. DJR (talk) 16:32, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Format change & possible mistakes

I've changed the format to make it easier to edit individual columns of the template. While doing so I checked against the lists of 5-star stadiums (two slightly different ones are available from [1] and [2]) and I noticed that some of the stadiums listed on this template are not in those lists. These are:

  • San Siro
  • Stadio Olimpico
  • Allianz Arena
  • Signal Iduna Park
  • Sükrü Saracoglu Stadium
  • Estadio Santiago Bernabeu

Of course, the lists there may be out of date or mistaken. Can anyone supply me with a reliable source that say these are on the 5-star list? Else I will remove them. Qwghlm 23:05, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

As no-one responded with a more authoritative source I have updated the template to match the source. Qwghlm 20:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Signal Iduna was added in 2006, when renovations/expansions were completed... As far as I know... I'll look for some more sources though. -newkai t-c 13:30, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Şükrü Saraçoğlu Staduim's reconstruction was completed nearly two years ago. After the building process ended, supervisors from UEFA came to check the stadium if this made according to UEFA criterions. After this visit Şükrü Saraçoğlu named as a 5-star rated stadium and given the chance to host UEFA final organizations(The first one will be the 2008 UEFA Cup final, if the request will be accepted).

It sounds plausible but you need to cite a source that says it has been granted certification. Qwghlm 09:54, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Format change & possible mistakes

Can you show me any source about included 5-star stadiums? There are no sources. We just know they match with the UEFA requirements because of the information provided online. I dont like this new list at all... I want the old list uploaded back again. ltimur

I give sources above - the first link I supplied [3] has now been deleted unfortunately, but [4] still exists and provides a detailed list that cites UEFA. I can't find any official document on UEFA.com so the second link is the best guide I have. What problem did you have with the new list, specifically? Qwghlm 07:50, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
There is also this list [5] but it is less detailed than the German one and does not cite its sources - it is the same but also includes San Siro and the Bernabeu, but I can't find any evidence that either stadium is definitely 5-star. Qwghlm 07:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Buddy here is the link [6] as you see Fenerbahce Stadium which is Sukru Saracoglu stadium is one of the six candidate stadiums to host 2008 UEFA CUP final. I know UEFA allows only 5-star stadiums for this venue. Only reason why Sukru Saracoglu stadium was not included in the list you provided above ,is that the renovations have just ended in 2006. I am re-editing and including the Fenerbahce stadium (which I am a big fan of)in the UEFA 5-star football stadia list. Any one who has an objection send me a message through my profile page. I have more proofs for you. ltimur 11 September 2006

(a) A stadium only has to be 4-star rated to host the UEFA Cup Final and (b) Certification only takes place after a club applies to host a final. I need better proof than the above, so I'm reverting your edit - if you can find an actual news item that explicitly states the Sukru Saracoglu stadium has been given a rating by UEFA's Stadia Committee, then supply it, but don't add it on the basis of conjecture. Qwghlm 07:35, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry man...After all your objections now it is proven that Sukru saracoglu is 5-star. http://english.sabah.com.tr/C06C873B3E5341AF9834C75B86B7DB26.html Now you decide what is basis of conjecture. ltimur

[edit] Fenerbahce Sukru Saracoglu Stadium 5 Star

I can't read Turkish, unfortunately, so I can't understand what is exactly being said in the text. Also it looks like the article has used this Wikipedia template as a source, since it lists Wembley Stadium at the end as 5-star, as the old version did. This is clearly wrong since Wembley is not even open and operational as a stadium yet. So I'm sorry but I don't think whoever wrote that article had their facts right. Qwghlm 18:15, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

4-star = 49.999 and under 5-star = 50.000 and up

Fenerbahce sukru saracoglu = Capacity 52,500 = 5-star —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.99.175.228 (talk • contribs) 11:40, September 18, 2006 (UTC).

Not all 50,000+ stadia are rated 5-star, e.g. Celtic Park - see Talk:Celtic Park for a past similar discussion. Qwghlm 12:21, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] San Siro and Olimpico

Firstly the San Siro. The San Siro went under small renovations over the past 2 seasons meaning that it temporarily lost its 5 star rating. This has been resumed and that list must be old. On the Olimpico. How can it not be a 5 star stadium if it has just been awarded the 2009 Champions League final ? Niall123 00:31, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
