Philadelphia controversy

Wasn't this stadium a controversial last-minute change of mind by the state? Because the Eagles were set to get a new stadium way before the Steelers had plans of getting a new one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spartan9199 (talk • contribs) 15:39, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember any such controversy, at least in the Pittsburgh area and press. They worked on the funding for awhile so it wasn't a last minute thing as far as I am aware. The state had designated money for facilities in both cities, but Pittsburgh had things in place sooner. Maybe others can shed more light onto this. CrazyPaco (talk) 17:05, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AFC Championship games not mentioned

Shouldn't the three AFC championship games (ending the 2001 and 2004 seasons and sending the 2008 team to the Superbowl) be mentioned considering those were probably the three biggest events in the stadium's history thus far? 65.207.69.2 (talk) 23:55, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Slow edit war about tenants

I just want to be clear here, as there is a slow edit war going on by an anonymous IP, to make sure there is consensus about the meaning and definition of "tenants" regarding its use in athletic facility infoboxes. Tenants, as is precedent in every existing Wikipedia article about sports facilities, as well as the understood meaning and definition of the word, refer to past or current permanent tenants who play their home games at the facilities, and not one-time events, like concerts or the Winter Classic, etc. Does anyone disagree? CrazyPaco (talk) 18:40, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of succession box for Pitt Panthers

Succession boxes exists for all tenants. One editor insists that only the Pitt Panther succession box should be removed because it falls under the authority of the College Football Wikiproject. No authority exists for any one Wikiproject nor does such a policy exist across Wikipedia. Removing the box leaves the Events and Tenants listing incomplete. Please leave your commentary about whether it is appropriate to remove the Pitt Panthers or other succession boxes for this article. CrazyPaco (talk) 23:20, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Field design

The "Field design" section conatins no references. Could one of the regular editors of the article look into this as it is likely to fail the

GA criteria if it is not fixed. AIRcorn (talk) 00:59, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply

Populous / HOK Sport

In regards to the name of the Architect, in 2009, the HOK Sport group bought itself out in its entirety[1] – taking its portfolio of work and staff with it, and rebranding as Populous. As part of the buyout agreement from HOK, Populous had full claim to the portfolio of work done while under the HOK Moniker. HOK is not/was not allowed to claim any of those projects as their own.

In 2014, five years after the buyout was complete, HOK chose to re-enter the sports architecture space, acquiring another architecture firm, 360[2]. In turn, with the reemergence of a new company called HOK Sport, providing clarity in what company can actually claim this as their own work would be beneficial to the article and its readers. Hence rallying for the change from HOK Sport to Populous (then HOK Sport). The HOK Sport of today is not the same HOK Sport that completed this project and this change will minimize confusion for readers. If you click through to the Populous Wikipedia page, readers will be able to see the detailed firm history of Populous – including information on the buyout.

I'm aware that there are guidelines about editing pages if there is a potential conflict of interest, so I would like to disclose here that these contributions are made on behalf of Populous and in employment with them, and I intend to follow all of Wikipedia's guidelines, including those on WP:COI, WP:RS, WP:V and WP:NPOV, very closely. My aim is to work with and seek advice from impartial editors to make positive contributions to Populous' article and projects, hopefully leading to improved articles.

"Acrisure Stadium" vs "Heinz Field" for photo captions

Currently, the top picture in the infobox is captioned "Acrisure Stadium in 2020" -- however, since it did not become Acrisure Stadium until 2022, this seems incorrect. In 2020, it was Heinz Field, and so the picture is of Heinz Field, not Acrisure stadium (indeed, the Heinz logo is visible on the front of the stadium in the picture).

If possible, we should replace the picture with one taken since the rebranding and reflecting the new name, but for now, we should change the caption to be correct. Waidawut (talk) 17:50, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

COMMONNAME, reliable sources still primarily refer to the stadium as "Heinz Field", and that is clearly the most popular search term for the article. ––FormalDude talk 19:21, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply

Oppose The stadium has been renamed Acrisure Stadium, look at the external link on this page and the Steelers website. Type in heinzfield.com and it redirects to acrisurestadium.com. Let it go already...Roberto221 (talk) 19:38, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A GA from 2008. There are uncited areas like the entirety of the field design section and the last two paragraphs of the seating expansion. Also, the prose is very choppy in a lot a places with multiple 1-2 sentence paragraphs. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:53, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Heinz Field Never Existed???

With just one intelligible swoop of a pen makes Heinz Field non-existent? Obviously that makes all memories shared there with family and friends also non-existent? Your pen and money doesn’t make you God. No one from Pittsburgh will EVER call that stadium anything but HEINZ FIELD BurghinBoston (talk) 09:07, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
