An anonymous user continues to remove the team's scheduled move to Allentown, Pennsylvania in 2008. Please stop. It is verified and done and a very critical part of this article. Thank you. PAWiki 23:16, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
This information should not be included until a deal has been finalized. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:70.28.3.168 (talk • contribs) .
I agree with you on that point, and I actually reverted the details on the first day also until a citation was added. However, the linked article from the Allentown paper indicates that the International League made an official announcement, including a quote from the league president with the details. Is this in dispute? -- dakern74 (talk) 02:38, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Sorry but this is starting to sound like an Allentown lovefest. This article is still about the minor league baseball team, the Ottawa Lynx — why is there suddenly a sentence about how much Allentown, PA loves the NFL Philadelphia Eagles? Is a detailed history of the association between Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia Flyers coming next? Can we tone that down a bit? This is how a mini-edit war was breaking out here in the first place a few days ago. —Wknight94 (talk) 13:10, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
Agreed, none of this additional Allentown info should be on within this entry. In addition, the part about the affiliation going to Philadelphia. Teams are not allowed to enter into agreements with Major or Minor league teams until the beginning of October. while some in the media may be reporting it, and it may eventually happen, it is impossible for it to be a contracted agreement through either Minor League Baseball or Major League Baseball. Please start another entry with any and all Allentown references you want to make. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.87.255.110 (talk • contribs) .
Pawtiki you are reportin false information. It is impossible for an affiliation to have been contracted as of yet. Just because a reporter says so does not make it fact. I also find no reason why Allentown's love of the Eagles should be in an article about the Ottawa Lynx. Please do not keep adding this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.28.3.168 (talk • contribs) .
The team is still playing in the International League, and still playing at Lynx Staidum, the past tense should not be used here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.87.255.110 (talk • contribs) .
So who is playing in the International League in 2007? You are posting inaccuracies. see www.ottawalynx.com or www.ilbaseball.com The Ottawa Lynx still exist. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.87.255.110 (talk • contribs) .
Their affiliation still says Orioles, I'm trying to switch it to Phillies. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NightHawk2005 (talk • contribs) .
Where is your proof that they have been shut down? They open the 2007 season on April 6th in Rochester, and at home on April 17th against Charlotte. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.87.255.110 (talk • contribs) .
For some reason, people continue to edit this as the Lynx no longer exist. This information is incorrect, and cannot be substantiated, so it is asked that these edits please stop. The Ottawa Lynx currently play in the International League, and have their 2007 season schedule confirmed and adopted. Without proof or justification of these facts, incorrect edits shoud not be allowed on this or any other site within Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.136.164.35 (talk • contribs) .
Also, while the team is in talks, and there has been league approval, the fact is that the team has not been sold as of yet. Ray Pecor still owns the ballclulb, and any reference to ownership shoudl be aware that this deal has not been finalized. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.28.3.168 (talk • contribs) .
I agree. The bottom line is that the ballclub still exists. They have a 2007 schedule, they are still operating as a business, and Major League Baseball, Minor League Baseball, and the International League still recognize them as a current member.
This is a page for the Ottawa Lynx. This team is a current member of the International League. If the team moves to Allentown, then one can create this as a historical piece. The constant references to a potential team in Allentown should be saved for another page if, that team starts playing in Allentown. Why not create this new piece and keep the Ottawa Lynx page about the Ottawa Lynx?
Am I alone in thinking this is about the most absurd name they could have selected?? A page should be started for them, however. PAWiki 15:54, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
OK, now that we have the Lehigh entry in, I propose that we take all of the mentions about this team and put them under the new entry.
The info that has been deleted from this page makes more sense under the other entry, and not in this piece. That info is relevant to Lehigh Valley and not the Ottawa Lynx.
I know it is awkward to read that the Ottawa Lynx "was a team," not "were a team," but it's true. A team is one thing. I'm going to change it back to "was," and I request that it not be changed again without discussion on this page. Thanks. Mikehillman 15:15, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
