Shouldn't it be spelt Metalurg Donetsk in English, that's the way I've seen it spelt. Yonatanh 13:42, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Result was move.--Riurik(discuss) 06:26, 29 January 2008 (UTC)


Per Wikipedia:NC#Sports_teams, the question is whether the official name of the sports team under consideration has "no ambiguity" or "some ambiguity".

I think that the team's name is ambiguous, because it does not have an English-language website/section, nor is it broadly recognizable, and it is easily confused with another team FC Metalurh Zaporizhya.

Therefore per above naming convention, which states and I quote: “ (2) in cases where there is some ambiguity as to the official spelling of a club's name in English, the name most commonly used by the English-language media should be used (as determined using the number of hits at Google News) ”


This name seems to be: FC Metalurh Donetsk

Results:

"fc metalurh donetsk" [1] - 202 with uefa

"fc metalurg donetsk" [2] - 3 with uefa

Without uefa:

"fc metalurh donetsk" -uefa [3] - 13

"fc metalurg donetsk" -uefa [4] - 0

Because of above, the article should be moved to FC Metalurh Donetsk.--Riurik(discuss) 21:15, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Metalurg-Donetsk.png

Image:Metalurg-Donetsk.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
