the name edit

I came here through Blake Schilb, and I wonder why is the FMP page under the page of Red star?

Like the owner said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIcAh1b1On4

These video clips with by YouTube is proven that this is not the KK Crvena Zvezda for FMP. Nn94 14 (talk) 12:08, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Rename: it's Red Star in English!! edit

I am from that region and I know of this club of course but seeing it written Crvena zvezda is frankly very strange! This is the best well known club in Serbia and everybody knows it as Red Star. In fact the club is so notorious that it has been tranlsated in all languages. Almost nobody refers to it as Crvena zvezda!!! Even in the article if you pay attention, editors write Red Star! We should rename that.--Lepourquoipas (talk) 03:08, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Literally every official source on English language (Euroleague, Eurocup, ABA league) is calling them Crvena zvezda. I don't see any reason why would we translate their name into English. Honestly it bothers me why even the name of football club is translated into English when UEFA for example calls them Crvena zvezda. By that logic we should rename Real Madrid to Royal Madrid and Steaua Bucharest to The Star Bucharest. Nightfall87 (talk) 21:36, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Agree with Nightfall87. --IndexAccount (talk) 21:40, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
I am not sure about "literally every English language source" calling them by the local name...
ULEB: Cup Red-Star fall to Dynamo Moscow
One of the main serbian channels: B92: Red Star beat Partizan, clinch basketball Super League title
major news chanel from Australia: SBS: Red Star into Euroleague basketball top 16
main english news channel from turkey: Galatasaray wins tense game in Belgrade against Red Star
That took me 3 min...
As for not seeing why to translate well these are informal conventions that are created over time and of course can change over time.--Lepourquoipas (talk) 14:54, 4 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
You dropped "official" from "literally every English language source" :) It means that every international competition, such as the Euroleague, the Eurocup and the ABA League, where the club plays, use Crvena zvezda instead off Red Star. Your sources confirms what is already mentioned in the article - the english name of Crvena zvzeda. But it's not a reason to change the name of the article. --IndexAccount (talk) 15:32, 4 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
