Is "disbandment" a word? RickK 04:04 7 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Article title
When was the SWC ever referred to as the "Southwest Athletic Conference"? I've never heard of it being called anything but the "Southwest Conference". The article Southwest Conference should stand on its own, and discuss the conference including Texas and Texas A&M, among others, which disbanded in 1996. The article Southwest Athletic Conference should redirect to Southwestern Athletic Conference. Microtonal 1 July 2005 03:19 (UTC)
- Also, the SWC has nothing whatsoever to do with the American Southwest Conference. I don't know why they point to each other with "see also" links. Microtonal 1 July 2005 03:22 (UTC)
- Unless someone objects between now and then, I will be making my above proposed change tomorrow (Fri, 8 July). Microtonal 7 July 2005 21:41 (UTC)

- Yes, content was moved; nice job. This is another reason I left; the content was moved; the page and its history was not. Not only that, the original title was the official name of the organization, which is what it should be listed under. That's what redirects are for. I wish there were more people on this thing who would bother to crack a book once in a great while. Hephaestos|[[User talk:Hephaestos|§]] 02:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- I've never seen a source that calls the Southwest Conference anything other than the Southwest Conference. If you've come up with some other "official name of the organization", you should provide a source.

- As for your other point, would you like me to do a proper page move? It's easy enough. By the way, does it not seem rather pointless for you to come back to Wikipedia just to complain about why you left Wikipedia in the first place? A bit curmudgeonly, even.

- Oh by the way. "I've never seen a source." You admit you've never even <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22southwestern+athletic+conference%22&btnG=Google+Search">Googled</a> the goddamned thing. And yet you have the gall to even edit this article? Your bio says you're at UT; why don't you try going to the goddamed library?
