[edit] Irish cycling team?
I know that CSF Navigare are registered in Ireland with the UCI. However like other italian teams like LPR and Tenax (now defunct), this appears to be for anything other then sporting. In a substance over form (accounting theory. sorry!!!),l it would be more appropriate as an Italian team rather then irish. Any other opinion on this is welcomed. I note this is different for LPR team who are also registered in Ireland. They are put down as being Italian. As they are both italian team registered in Ireland, they should be uniformed in their country whether it be italy or ireland. as an irish person , i'd have no problem claiming either team as irish :D just kidding. However in all seriousness, i'd like other opinions on whether they should be irish or italian. have i made any sense whatsoever?Phil_Noltetalk 19:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- We can only really go by country of registration and/or head office, everything else is pretty much POV. We've looked at this before and there isn't really any way around it. Ireland seems especially popular for this kind of thing. It happens, I believe, because the number of Professional Continental teams per country is limited. Italy seems to produce lots of teams at this level so they register elsewhere. Of course, words to the effect of "Italian influenced team" or "Irish-Italian team" in the prose is most welcome and beneficiary, provided it is cited!! Citing these things ("everybody thinks xyz") is more difficult than it looks. SeveroTC 18:57, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
