I find the article is non-noticable. Pookeo9 ^{Talk If you need anything} 11:37, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to Finn Park. The references are there, and it's useful information. It just doesn't belong in a separate article yet, because the building has not yet been constructed and put to use. Putting the information in the last section of the existing stadium where related information is already present is in my opinion the best solution. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:41, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Stadium is under construction and it is a separate venue to existing stadium. In addition, nominator's rationale has more than a hint of WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Patken4 (talk) 22:55, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect as per Mgm; as and when the proposed new stadium is actually confirmed, then it should have its own article. Giant Snowman 00:41, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The stadium has been confirmed and construction started in May 2008. A stadium under construction is a valid subject for an article (see Category:Planned or proposed stadiums). Bettia (talk) 08:04, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But construction has been delayed for economic reasons and there is only a speculative date for it to restart. Giant Snowman 12:26, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, as it is a used term about a proposed new stadium (ie it isn't something someone made up). Even if the proposal doesn't come to fruition, it is a notable subject matter. There are articles about new stadiums which haven't even reached the stage of beginning construction (eg New Aberdeen Stadium). Jmorrison230582 (talk) 14:42, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep there are numerous articles on proposed football stadiums already. Eldumpo (talk) 09:58, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect - would be nice to wait until the progress on the field begins again and/or we have the actual title of the park. Seems similar to (although clearly different from) the common "X's Nth album" types of articles, which are regularly deleted per WP:HAMMER. Cocytus [»talk«] 03:24, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
