Talk:1992 NHL strike

Change "players' strike" to "strike" edit

I moved the article from "1992 NHL players' strike" to "1992 NHL strike" because the term "players' strike" is redundant. A "strike", by definition, is always initiated by labor--most commonly in professional sports by players; compare the Wikipedia articles for strikes by players in other major North American sports (NFL strikes of 1982 & 1987; MLB strikes of 1972, 1981, 1985 & 1994-95). The only exception listed in the "sports labor disputes" category is the Scottish football referee strike of 2010, where a specific reference to football (soccer) referees is necessary to clarify that the action was by referees, not players. A labor action initiated by management is a "lockout"; Wikipedia uses that term alone for the NHL lockouts of 1994-95 and 2004-05, as well as numerous MLB, NBA & NFL lockouts (most recently the 2011 NFL lockout). --RBBrittain (talk) 13:33, 3 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
