Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tennis: Difference between revisions

 

::::::Just to summarize, I think the most compelling point is that Wikipedia's policy is to use the common name (see [[WP:COMMONNAME]]), not necessarily the official name. This is why, for example, the article about the baseball player is [[Babe Ruth]] and not [[George Herman Ruth]]. The latter is technically correct, but the former is far and away the most common usage. And while the tournament is officially known as Roland Garros, and is probably referred to that way in France, I have ''never'' heard someone in the US call it anything but the French Open. From the archived discussion, it sounds as though both names are used in the UK and Australia. --[[User:Dantheox|dantheox]] 07:07, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
