== Undue weight ==

While of course the Raiders' relocation dances have been important events in the history of the franchise, the section on relocations (including ephemeral rumors of the sort that follow many teams and keep many bored sportswriters in jobs) is ''larger than the section detailing the on-field history of the franchise.'' This is absurd, and it should be trimmed dramatically. [[User talk:Ravenswing|'''<span style="background:#7F00FF;color:#00FFFF"> '' Ravenswing '' </span>''']] 10:36, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
:Just split the article in two, one for the LV Raiders, one for Oakland. One would be a subarticle of the other -- [[Special:Contributions/70.51.200.162|70.51.200.162]] ([[User talk:70.51.200.162|talk]]) 02:47, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
::I think the IP sort of misinterpreted Ravenswing's point, that this issue is basically in regards to [[WP:RECENTISM]]. The problem is the currently very long "New stadium proposals and relocation" section. Because the Raiders are now going to Vegas, we no longer need that very extensive coverage of all those other proposed relocations, like to Santa Clara, LA, San Antonio, Concord and San Diego. Or a five-paragraph discussion on Ronnie Lott's proposed replacement stadium for Oakland. In the long-run, they will now just be footnotes in history. If you really want to move some of that content anywhere, there is the new [[Oakland Raiders relocation to Las Vegas]] page.

== Sam Boyd Stadium ==

From what I read about Sam Boyd Stadium, It technically meets requirements even tjougj it has 35,000 seats but then that would mean the Chargers shouldn't be able to play at the 30,000 seat StubHub Center [[User:FlashGaming|FlashGaming]] ([[User talk:FlashGaming|talk]]) 13:03, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

== Question ==

Will the Oakland Raiders become the San Francisco Raiders for one season if they play at Oracle Park? [[User:SportsFan007|<span style="background:#000000;font:Helvetica;padding:0.4em;font-size: 80%;border-radius: 2em;margin: 0.25em;k; color:#00FF00">'''SportsFan007'''</span>]] ([[User talk:SportsFan007|talk]]) 22:20, 4 February 2019 (UTC)SportsFan007

:{{reply|SportsFan007}} Only they can decide that, no one outside the team or league can answer that question. [[WP:SPECULATION|No use to speculate]] when the could just as easily be California Raiders, or Bay Raiders, or just Raiders or something else entirely. Even their playing at Oracle is still up in the air ([https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/02/04/five-obstacles-in-raiders-planned-path-to-giants-ballpark/ Five obstacles in Raiders’ planned path to Giants’ ballpark - February 4, 2019]).

Since the team is still playing in the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum should it still say 1995- present instead of 1995-2019 until the move in 2020 is official to the Las Vegas Stadium?[[User:Joker4lifead|Joker4lifead]] ([[User talk:Joker4lifead|talk]]) 04:27, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

In my opinion, the fact that Las Vegas Stadium is planned to open in 2020, by definition means 2019 is the final year the Raiders will play at Oakland Coliseum. Please correct me if I am wrong. [[User:SportsFan007|<span style="background:#000000;font:Helvetica;padding:0.4em;font-size: 80%;border-radius: 2em;margin: 0.25em;k; color:#00FF00">'''SportsFan007'''</span>]] ([[User talk:SportsFan007|talk]]) 05:48, 26 February 2019 (UTC)SportsFan007

In the video in this link, http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001018885/article/raiders-coliseum-authority-reach-agreement-for-2019 made some point about saying should the Las Vegas Stadium runs into problems and can't open on time. The deal the Raiders and the Coliseum Authority are working on finishing up in this week or next week would give them the option to stay in the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum until the as Vegas Stadium opens. That why I was wondering if it should be 1995- present instead of 1995-2019.[[User:Joker4lifead|Joker4lifead]] ([[User talk:Joker4lifead|talk]]) 06:22, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

::{{reply|Yosemiter}} Thanks for confirming that is should say Oakland Coliseum (1966–1981, 1995–present) until the move in 2020 is official to the Las Vegas Stadium. [[User:Joker4lifead|Joker4lifead]] ([[User talk:Joker4lifead|talk]]) 00:59, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

== When to move and rename this article to "Las Vegas Raiders" ==

When we moved the Rams article from St. Louis to [[Los Angeles Rams]] in 2016, and renamed the Chargers article from San Diego to [[Los Angeles Chargers]] in 2017, it looks like we only did so when the teams and the league started to officially use the new names, NOT immediately after the end of the previous season. Thus we should do the same here: do not rename the pages until at least the league and the team start using the Las Vegas name. This is especially true given the fact that the Raiders have an option to remain in Oakland in 2020 if their new stadium in Las Vegas is not finished in time.[https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/raiders-move-las-vegas-new-stadium/421klqekch1t1cu0h56zcqew2] [[User:Zzyzx11|Zzyzx11]] ([[User talk:Zzyzx11|talk]]) 01:11, 28 December 2019 (UTC)


== Nevada Residents Set To Sue State Over Las Vegas Raiders ==
:{{reply|Zzyzx11}} I think this goes hand in hand with my question about when we should change the team is playing in the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum to Allegiant Stadium. As Yosemiter said as we cannot predict the future as an absolute, we should keep the "1995–present" until it is not "present". The same should go for when we should change the name from the Oakland Raiders to the Las Vegas Raiders or until at least the league and the team start using the Las Vegas name as you suggested. --[[User:Joker4lifead|Joker4lifead]] ([[User talk:Joker4lifead|talk]]) 22:24, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
::Yes, and for now anything related to them moving should still be marked as "planned for 2020" or "scheduled". It is not up for Wikipedia editors to jump the gun before it is at least official. [[User:Zzyzx11|Zzyzx11]] ([[User talk:Zzyzx11|talk]]) 22:42, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Obviously the Raiders are indeed moving to Las Vegas in 2020. There is an option to remain in Oakland if there is a delay. We know that even though there is a 99.9% chance that they are in Vegas next season, it is important to wait until Mark Davis, the Raiders and the NFL officially confirm the move, which should be confirmed within a matter of weeks. --[[User:MusicAndArtFan|MusicAndArtFan]] ([[User talk:MusicAndArtFan|talk]]) 15:25, 30 December 2019 (UTC)


== Raider nation, official or not? ==
:To support what other editors have said, ''until the team and the NFL start referring to the team as the Las Vegas Raiders, the team remains the Oakland Raiders''.

According to this page "The Raider Nation is the unofficial name for the fans of the Las Vegas Raiders."
:Agree with the consensus here. No need to rush. It certainly shouldn't be changed before the end of the current season. Even though the Raiders' season has ended, the 2019 NFL season is still ongoing, so they are still the Oakland Raiders. If the NFL and Raiders websites are still using Oakland (which they still are as of this writing), as are other secondary sources like ESPN and Fox Sports, then Wikipedia should be as well. --[[User:JonRidinger|JonRidinger]] ([[User talk:JonRidinger|talk]]) 02:11, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
