Miss-named Gym
I really appreciate this article as I am a Duke fan and we have just won the first "Battle of the Blues" for 2016... but in looking at the stats,I did notice a mistake. I do not have the knowledge or skill to correct something, so if someone would be so kind as to change the name of the gym in the complete list of games. The early Duke gym was the A n g i e r Duke Gymnasium NOT Anglier.... There is a town named Angier, and a scholarship- Angier Biddle Duke,etc.... and even Disney made a movie "The Happiest Millionaire" about Biddle, whose daughter Cordelia met a nice guy named Angier Duke.... Thanks, again, for all of the information.65.191.174.249 (talk) 04:48, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Carolina-Duke Rivalry
So as a Carolina grad and professor at NC State. . . . This is called the Carolina-Duke rivalry. No one refers to it as Duke, North Carolina Rivalry. Propose we change it back. 2600:1700:7D0:28E0:2916:25C8:DAC5:ADB4 (talk) 17:03, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
- And the last move discussion said to leave it at Carolina–Duke, so I've moved it back. —C.Fred (talk) 17:16, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
Requested move 23 April 2024
It has been proposed in this section that Carolina–Duke rivalry be renamed and moved to Duke–North Carolina rivalry. A bot will list this discussion on requested moves' current discussions subpage within an hour of this tag being placed. The discussion may be closed 7 days after being opened, if consensus has been reached (see the closing instructions).

- Comment. College sports have their own idiosyncratic short names. The lede of North Carolina Tar Heels currently says "the school took on the nickname Carolina, especially in athletics." I'm not a college sports expert, but it looks like there's other instances of short names being used (e.g. Army–Navy Game, not United States Military Academy–United States Naval Academy Game). "UNC" is also tricky since there are two separate UNC sports teams apparently (UNC Greensboro Spartans men's basketball and to a lesser extent UNC Asheville Bulldogs). I'd want to see evidence that the Chapel Hill team's short name is not Carolina, because if it is, then we're just reflecting the real world being odd. SnowFire (talk) 22:35, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose – it is Duke-Carolina or Carolina-Duke. Look at reliable sources such as this 2013 documentary or this 2009 documentary on the rivalry and this 2005 book on the subject. Rikster2 (talk) 13:47, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose – I understand that for most college sports rivalry articles the "fuller" version of the shorthand name is used (e.g. Virginia–Virginia Tech) but in this specific case the rivalry is known as Carolina–Duke or Duke–Carolina. SportsGuy789 (talk) 16:52, 27 April 2024 (UTC)]
- Question – where is the "very flawed" reasoning (a prior move discussion?) from 11+ years ago? Dmoore5556 (talk) 23:42, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
