As this is a new stadium, built on Lansdowne Road, why is this article titled "Aviva Stadium"? Has Wikimedia received some payment which would oblige it to call the stadium by this name? In the absence of any commmercial reasons, I would suggest that this article be retitled as Lansdowne Road until such time as it can be shown that this other name has attained popular acceptance and usage.

What ever about changing the name, that kind of makes sense, there should not be a picture with the Aviva logo above the picture of the stadium. Wikipedia doesn't do ads. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.107.153.117 ( talk) 13:01, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
I agree with the above comment Aviva don't get to place ad on the page. Am taking their image out. mcdonnap — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.149.124.134 ( talk) 21:39, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
Landsdowne Road is still in common usage but ultimately the branded name has won out. No one gets the joke if I ask them about "Landsdowne Road Healthcare" either. -- 109.79.76.131 ( talk) 16:02, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
Since the Aviva Stadium is named after a corporate sponser not associated with UEFA it apparently will be called Lansdowne Road by UEFA or the Dublin Arena, I've seen both being used here so which one is right? Shamrock141 ( talk) 21:05, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
The stadium will be called the 'Dublin Arena' by UEFA http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/association=irl/news/newsid=1488379.html Shamrock141 ( talk) 21:18, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

The capacity definitely isn't 50,000 - the attendance for the Ireland-Russia soccer game was 50,411 ( source). Therefore, I think the previous revision stating it to be 51,700 is correct. There are several references to back that up ( example). Changing text on that basis. - Schcambo aon scéal? 16:13, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Can you please put up references for the attendance section of the Concerts Table please. It doesn't seem right that over 65,000 people saw The Script when just over 50,000 people attended the event. user:handsopened
There is a table entitled Rugby Union matches in the Rugby Union section of the article. There is another table entitled Association Football matches in the Association Football section. Rows in the tables are tinted in green and yellow. What is the logic behind the choice of colour for any given match? — O'Dea ( talk) 10:08, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
The field length of 106 m as given in the info-box can't be correct, as this would leave 3 m deep end zones when the ground is configured for rugby union. The fence to fence length of the stadium must be closer to 140 m, to allow for the desired minimum depth of 15 m for the end zones. Van Dieman ( talk) 02:57, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
There seems to be an edit war going on regarding whether Leinster are tenants or not. Can we put an end to the war and discuss here instead, please? Can anyone provide a reference, one way or the other, from a reliable source? Hamish59 ( talk) 19:35, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
