– To mirror Women's EHF Champions League. It's the same competition – the men's competition is not superior to the women's competition. The title of "Champions League" wasn't originated with the men – it was introduced for both the women's and the men's side in 1993. In a competition that's so equalised (in most things but the prize money), I think we've moved past the time where the women's competition is seen as secondary to the men's competition and the "EHF Champions League" is synonymous with the men's competition.

  • Oppose moves. Unlike with a certain similar request, there are clear sources omitting "Men's" from the name. O.N.R. (talk) 00:06, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose@Cotillards: has a good point and I thought I'd dig into a bit more. Velux on the Men's side and Delos on the Women's side are the sponsors of the championships. Looking in Archive.org, I can see that the name has been "VELUX EHF Champions League" since the first save in September 2017. However, while the current name of the Women's League is "DELOS Women's EHF Champions League", back in Sep 2017 there was no prefix sponsor name (according to dropdown navigation) and the name was simply "Women's EHF Champions League". Therefore, I would argue that the sponsor can change over time and, therefore, the branded name can change, but the underlying event name remains the base without the sponsor's brand, namely "EHF Champions League" and "Women's EHF Champions League". The branded names should/could be used inside the article, but as the articles span the entire history, using a branded title could be done, but I'd not recommend it. It could be argued that the name should reflect the current name, "VELUX EHF" and "DELOS Women's EHF", but I don't think the choice between the two is mandated by Wikipedia policy. So, I'll come down on the side of the generic names. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:25, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose both—Good grief .. wait wait wait. The second article in question does not reflect more than a single season. I agree that the name should reflect what EHF notes. Therfore, the first change, to appending "men's" to the base name of the event should not be done; keep it titled as is. For the second suggestion, again, "men's" should not be added, but the correct name should be "VELUX EHF Champions League". So - Oppose first proposed move=leave it unchanged & Oppose second proposed move=change to "2019–20 VELUX EHF Champions League". Sorry for the confusion - sheesh. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:36, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Per EHF website. Velux is not used as we try to not use sponsorship names. Kante4 (talk) 11:51, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

IHF European Champions Cup vs EHF Champions League

[edit]

A clear distinction line between the two competitions have to be drawn here. The only thing they have in common is that it was/is a top-tier competition in the continent. However as this is a page devoted to the EHF Champions League the foundation date has to be changed to 1993 following the foundation of the European Handball Federation which took over the governance of the club competitions in Europe from the International Handball Federation before 1993/94. For the same reason the number of titles for FC Barcelona cannot be ten, but only nine - perhaps a little asterisk might do explaining they also won the IHF Champions Cup before the EHF Champions League was established. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.16.244.138 (talk) 13:12, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
