KeepMerge to Zentralstadion (1956). The two stadiums are distinct in the same way as Wembley Stadium and its predecessor Wembley Stadium (1923); the additional content created at this page should be added to the old stadium article. Jmorrison230582 (talk) 15:04, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Zentralstadion (1956) already exists; the creator of this new article initially improved that, then decided instead to make a new article and redirect that one there (I've undone the redirect). This article is claiming the precursor stadium never closed. It's a POV fork. Yngvadottir (talk) 15:29, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- It fulfills all interests, due the mass events there.
- It is world- known.
- It has an other size and design than the stadium today. The stands can not be entered.
- The article size would be too big emerged into the Red Bull (Arena), after the Wikipedia guidelines.
- The Red Bull Arena is an other stadium for itself and is closed to the old stadium wall.
- The article has been patrolled, by administrators.
- Before the article here, it was excluded from the Red Bull Arena Leipzig, due the architecture and form with shapes.
- The two stadiums are distinct in the same way as Wembley Stadium and its predecessor Wembley Stadium (1923).
- We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. The Red Bull, Arena has it's own soul and era and also the Central Stadium. Both articles are unfinished.
- Those two stadiums are distinguish extreme from each other.
- Two different political systems the two stadiums have.
- Both stadiums are linked to each other.
- It fulfills the guideline: Wikipedia:Splitting
- Wikipedia is browser orientated and readers wants to have the overview with short loading times.
- Wikipedia is not a book.
- All sources are existing.
- You can redirect the article from the begin until the renovation/closing. For example: Central Stadium, Leipzig (1956-2000)

- Use an English name. --Nukefirestadium (talk) 15:47, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
+++That is the English Wikipedia and the article name should be in English and not in German. The year 1956 alone is wrong and nonsense. --Nukefirestadium (talk) 16:08, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
++++Central Stadium (German: Zentralstadion, German pronunciation: [tsɛnˈtra:lˈʃta:di̯ɔn])--Nukefirestadium (talk) 16:13, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Here They all have the name Central Stadium.--Nukefirestadium (talk) 16:27, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Nukefirestadium has been blocked for a week for edit warring. S/he had created a copy/paste version of the article at Central Stadium, Leipzig (1956-2000) and redirected the article to that title. I have undone the redirecting and will now instead redirect the new copy to Central Stadium (Leipzig, GDR). However, the point about using an English title is a valid one; Zentralstadion (1956) should probably be moved after this AfD finishes. (It also has already been expanded by Nukefirestadium - there is not much merging left to be done.) Yngvadottir (talk) 17:14, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge this article and Zentralstadion (1956), but don't merge with Red Bull Arena (Leipzig). Now we have a huge mess and the average reader doesn't know if it's 1, 2, or 3 stadiums, or whether they existed at the same time, are connected, or are on the same spot. Since it's 2 stadia, where the original Central Stadium existed and was demolished years before the Red Bull Stadium was being built, this is a case like the Wembley Stadium (1923) and Wembley Stadium, or Yankee Stadium (1923) and Yankee Stadium, where the two stadia share a name and general proximity.

- Merge to Zentralstadion (1956) (clear fork that needs to be remedied ASAP). Keep separate from the piece on the new incarnation of the facility. Carrite (talk) 11:57, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - to Zentralstadion (1956). IJA (talk) 15:20, 5 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
