Talk:Texas Revolution (indoor football)

Not Arkansas

There are many problems with the Allen Wranglers article. The team was not moved from Arkansas. This is an newly formed team, founded this year (2010). The team history and stats are then all wrong. The former team logos are all wrong and the team president is Jim Smith.

Please advise on how to correct this information or please update the page.

As you can see, an editor has updated this article to reflect this information. - Dravecky (talk) 06:48, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

I had originally made the changes that were suggested, but after further research I determined that the team really was officially moved by the owner, and is not a brand new team. I reverted my changes once I saw this. See http://www.goifl.com/news/index.html?article_id=2751 for one of many articles referring to a "move". The team may be choosing to market itself as a brand new franchise, but they are not. I did make the update to change the President to Jim Smith. - Micah008 (talk) 21:31, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Arkansas Twisters' Arkansas comeback

For Spring of 2019, the Arkansas Twisters are back in Little Rock, Arkansas. (Presumably, it's not the "same" team as is in Texas. Furthermore, I'm not even involved enough in the sport to know if any of these various name/location switches are the "same team.")

As far as the article is concerned, I'm not sure how this should be handled, but I would suspect one option would be for the Arkansas and Texas teams to have 2 separate articles containing the majority of each of their information, with small sections about one another and a link to their respective articles. I'd love some input because, again, I'm not exactly sure the proper way to handle this. If nobody steps up to the plate after a while, I can can take my best stab at figuring out the best course of action, in the interest of maintaining accurate information.Jtrnp (talk) 04:48, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

@Jtrnp: Sorry for the late response to this. The two teams are 100% unrelated. The National Gridiron League (United States) just grabbed a bunch of expired trademark logos and names from defunct teams and then branded around them as their marketing strategy. (Even the league logo is ripped straight from the United Football League (2009–2012).) While the league itself is likely never going to play (and may not meet WP:GNG itself), if it does, then the new Twisters would need to meet GNG (including WP:SUSTAINED coverage, not just the team announcement) on its own and should definitely not be part of this page's history.
