[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a

Merge Proposal and / or Redirect. Please do not modify it.
The result of the request for the Proposed Merger of 2020 Major League Baseball All-Star Game into this talk page's article was:

Not Done—Consensus Reached.
— — — — —

Formal request has been received to merge: 2020 Major League Baseball All-Star Game into Major League Baseball All-Star Game; dated: July 7, 2020. Proposer's Rationale:The 2020 MLB All-Star Game will never happen and there is already a paragraph in the merge target talking about the cancellation, like how the also-cancelled 2012 New York City Marathon and 2020 New York City Marathon redirects to New York City Marathon and there is total support for merging 2020 Boston Marathon into Boston Marathon. 108.41.60.144.

Requested move 11 March 2021

[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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Not moved. As pointed out in the discussion, WP:SHORTFORM is not a policy or guideline, unlike MOS:ACROTITLE (or WP:TITLEFORMAT in the article titles policy). It would need a very strong consensus to override an established policy or guideline, which clearly does not exist here. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 01:24, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MLB All-Star GameMajor League Baseball All-Star Game – I did not see the RM that took place a few weeks ago, but clearly neither did most editors based on the low participation. I believe that nomination and the two support votes were mistaken. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Abbreviations#Acronyms in page titles says Acronyms should be used in a page name if the subject is known primarily by its abbreviation and that abbreviation is primarily associated with the subject. The example it gives of that is NASA. Major League Baseball is not known primarily by the acronym "MLB". It would be reasonable to assume that people who are not so familiar with baseball may not know what "MLB" means. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:31, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good move. As of now I am undecided on the request itself. -- Calidum 19:58, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

who?

[edit]

Article says: "While the Reds were a good offensive team, most baseball observers agreed that they did not deserve seven starters in the All-Star Game."

Since "most" does not mean "all," I'd be interested to know which baseball observers were satisfied with the results of the ballot box stuffing. Were they from Cincinnati? 74.104.189.176 (talk) 17:37, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Update request

[edit]

The player selection section still reflects an era when the NL did not use the DH. Presumably, now that the DH is used in the NL, the fans get to vote on the NL DH in the all-star game, so it should be updated to say that. (u t c m l ) 🔒 ALL IN 🧿 17:10, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
