Talk:List of indoor arenas in the United States

Proposal[edit]

I believe this article should be divided up by state. Also, this will create the ability to add more arenas to this page, including those below a 5,000 capacity. Wjenkins96 (talk) 20:51, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion: Compile Into One List[edit]

In my opinion, this page should not have more than one list but rather one continuous list of all American arenas. Municipally-owned and privately-owned arenas should not get their own list separated from the college basketball list. I was thinking about spending a couple of hours merging everything into one list, but I want input before I go to all that trouble. Thanks. Wjenkins96 (talk) 00:35, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split?[edit]

This list is enormous. It also arguably covers more than one topic, so both a size split and a content split should probably be considered. There are several bare-bones proposals to do this in the archives, perhaps a more detailed one is in order, so here it goes:

  • Current size = 177,487 bytes

current topics covered[edit]

  • largest municipal and privately owned arenas in the United States by seating capacity
  • Future projects in this category
  • Former arenas in this category
  • largest university-owned sports arenas in the United States by seating capacity
  • largest university-owned sports arenas in the United States by seating capacity, below 10,000 capacity
  • future projects in this category

Possible splitting strategies[edit]

  • Split off the university list
  • Split off future/former arenas
  • Split by state or region
  • Split each section into a seperate list
  • Something else?

Any one of these could also be accompanied by a WP:SETINDEX page for organization. Thoughts? Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 16:50, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've also posted a notification at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Lists as past discussions suffered from a severe lack of participation Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 16:51, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My opinion: Compile all the current arenas listed into one "super list." This would include all privately-owned, municipal, and university arenas of all sizes, as long as they seat at least 1,000 spectators (exceptions apply for the three NCAA Division I arenas with a capacity below 1,000). Alternatively, they could be split by state. The former idea would probably be easier. Wjenkins96 (talk) 06:38, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is how a state-split would look for Florida: User:Wjenkins96/sandbox. Wjenkins96 (talk) 07:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
