Armando Sosa Peña

@ArsenalFan700: ISL website mentions Armando Sosa Peña and not Mandi. So I think we should go with the website data. ❯❯❯ S A H A 08:22, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

You go with the article title. This is not hard. Propose a name change if you want. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 13:40, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

ok. better to keep it as it is. ❯❯❯ S A H A 16:15, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Kolkata Derby

@ArsenalFan700:. now what to do with Kolkata Derby? ❯❯❯ S A H A 06:22, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Kolkata derby will be there though it's a new entity Mohun Bagan loose nothing except the atk name add before it just like Paris FC and stade Saint Germain collaboration stade Saint Germain is there as Paris Saint german Avi1962 (talk) 10:01, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

This has been far more different to PSG than what most people thought. Actually the page should not exist now. The previous professional football teams for Mohun Bagan A.C. were also registered under different company names. Those did not yield separate pages simply because the hype wasn't similar. This entity should not be looked at with any other sense. This should be added to the original MBAC page actually. M Kariyappa (talk) 11:07, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

M Kariyappa, atkmb is a completely different entity, so legally mbac has no relation with atkmb ❯❯❯ S A H A 11:27, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

You are wrong see what official statement said that it's a new Avatar of Mohun Bagan .. mbac er football unit er 80% share atk kine nieche that's all Avi1962 (talk) 21:30, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

This is not a new club and this page should not exist. This is just a renaming and change of ownership. No new club can use a copyrighted previous logo. And most importantly this club will get an AFC slot because Mohun Bagan won I-League. If it was a new club then it would not have been eligible in AFC Tournament and would need to fulfill club licensing criteria. People should look at the the example of Al Duhail of Qatar. Lekhiwa page was just renamed after mereger with EL-Jaish and renaming it as AL-Duhail. AFC gave the spot to the old Lekhiwa club. So for me the history, foundation everything remains unchanged and there is no need for this page. Debarghya89 (talk) 05:55, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

Linking a reference which clearly states that owners of ATK has bought a majority stake in Mohun Bagan Football Club. The share details are also given.(https://www.business-standard.com/article/sports/rp-sanjiv-goenka-group-buys-majority-stake-in-mohun-bagan-football-club-120011601336_1.html). Debarghya89 (talk) 06:00, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

Debarghya89 u r right Avi1962 (talk) 06:18, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

I do also feel the same way. There have been change of ownership of different Indian football club teams but those didn't yield separate pages. Minerva Punjub became Punjab FC due to transfer of footballing rights, East Bengal FC became Quess East Bengal FC due to similar rights transfer. I cannot really understand, as an 'outsider', what is going on in West Bengal football fraternity that is leading to creation of unnecessary Wikipedia pages. Please post deletion requests. M Kariyappa (talk) 14:47, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

I recommend making a merger request. See this basically saying that Mohun Bagan's name was changed to ATK Mohun Bagan. You guys have a case, this article won't be deleted but instead should be merged. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 15:28, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Also there is another way to do that. If there is a rough consensus, a targeted redirect can be put. I can create a section in the original Mohun Bagan AC page stating the current avatar of its footballing entity. M Kariyappa (talk) 16:32, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

kari did vandalism by posting players on mb page so now got 2 pages for 1 team, cant you all see that old mb is now for other sports and new atkmb football only!!! its most correct technical way bcos old logo wouldnt cover football team at all. doesnt change any facts, copy all history on atkmb page and done! (just add founded 2020 as atk mb after initial year). other question for other talks why atk owners were like fools giving club away but thats current situation, end the mess for gods sake!!!

last...update i league map and list where mb still remains! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.131.73.212 (talk) 17:19, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

I understand your concern as an ATK or some other fan but try to understand that the logo of the footballing entity was not same as the club logo from almost start of the I-league era though that didn't yield separate pages, so why now? The other more interesting points have already been written about. M Kariyappa (talk) 03:34, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

im afc fan only...and if you keep two pages for one team its nothing but vandslism...delete one finally all of you, such shame edit wars! afc should ban club bcos indian users have 2 pages of same thing!

you say isl will have atkmb vs mb, and afc cup two bagan teams! half of players from same squads against each other? or cricket and other mb sports vs atkmb footballers? unbelievable!

either make sub pages of all mb multi sport teams including football, or as it was link mb history with atkmb page!

and wrong i league team list is another sad lie. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.131.73.212 (talk) 04:04, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

MB players

I incorporated the few players who are a part of ATKMB but had played previously with MB as cited by transfermarkt but there should no anticipation of reverts. Plz check this out to improve the article.

transfermarkt is not a reliable source so please don't cite it on wikipedia. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 19:56, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I propose to merge ATK Mohun Bagan F.C. into ATK Mohun Bagan FC. @ArsenalFan700: ❯❯❯ S A H A 11:27, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

I prefer the redirect but feel free to take stuff from the last revision at ATK Mohun Bagan F.C. and bring it over here. The redirect just makes things easier. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 11:31, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Are you talking about this? If so, this doesn't confirm that they will be using the Mohun Bagan Ground, just that they hope to have it renovated so that ISL games can be held there. It isn't confirmed yet and as per the ISL website it will be the Salt Lake Stadium. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 15:10, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia should reflect reliable sources regarding the club's history, including reflecting any current lack of agreement

Is it possible that the "real world" outside Wikipedia is itself unclear or confused as to the "official history" of the current club? If reliable sources that haven't changed their minds since disagree, then Wikipedia should probably reflect that, at least until the then-current reliable sources agree.

Do the reputable, reliable sources that cover football in India all say pretty much the same thing these days (late November 2020) about the history of this club?

In some ways, this feels like the United States Presidential Election between the time the first reliable source "called it" for Biden and the time almost every reliable source did (let's ignore the technicalities of the Electoral College system, the court cases, and the technicalities of the "Biden transition," that's not the point of this analogy). There was a period for a few hours, maybe a few days, when it would have been improper for Wikipedia to say "Biden is the President-elect" or even "News sources agree that Biden is the President-elect [implying that almost all reputable news sources were saying this]," but at the same time it would have been inappropriate for Wikipedia to ignore the fact that at least one reputable, reliable source did "call it" for him. Why? Because reliable, reputable, up-to-date sources were in enough disagreement that ignoring the lack of consensus among major reputable media outlets would itself be un-encyclopedic. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 19:09, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

This has nothing to do with US politics. What we have here are two teams which merged. The reliable sources above discuss the new team as a merged team. We typically create articles when a new team is formed out of a merger, or even when a new entity is formed. But yet we can't reach agreement on splitting the article for some reason I'm not around. SportingFlyer T·C 21:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@SportingFlyer: Agreed that it has nothing to do with US politics, that was just the first example I could think of where different reliable sources were giving different results. I made this post because somewhere in the discussion, either here or on a discussion page of a related article I forget exactly where, someone mentioned a reliable source that considered this team was a "true successor" to one of the two "old" teams, and someone else, possibly on a different talk page, mentioned a reliable source that either considered the other team the "true successor" or it considered that this was a "true merger." I don't remember the details but I think one case was based on the league or team's official web site or twitter site calling it a merger (making it a PRIMARY source, which is usually considered reliable for some bare facts), and the other had to do with one of the old team's players' contracts being carried over but the other team's players' contracts NOT being carried over, which strongly suggests this was NOT a "true merger." I didn't pay close attention, but it did get me wondering - what do reliable sources, especially reliable independent sources, say? Are they in agreement, or are they arguing with each other? davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:00, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I think the table above is insightful with regards to sources, most of which have identified this as a "new" club. Might you be thinking of the AfD of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/FC Cincinnati (MLS)? SportingFlyer T·C 01:28, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
No, I don't even remember that AFD or that club. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 04:10, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Davidwr, 95% of the reliable sources say its a new merged club. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 06:47, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
This article was linked in the poorly closed merge discussion earlier which makes absolutely clear that this should be a new article. Based on this, Mohun Bagan continues to exist as a sports and cricket club, while ATK Mohun Bagan is a new football club which uses the Mohun Bagan brand. A spin-off article for the football club is warranted. SportingFlyer T·C 21:18, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
SportingFlyer, agree. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 07:45, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Restoring the Article

There is no consensus to redirect this page. The previous RFC was based on the votes by SPAs. It has been discussed on the Admins' noticeboard twice Administrators' noticeboard 1. 2, and those who participated in the discussion expressed the same opinion. Further discussion related to the same can be found here and here. Future discussions related to restoring the merger can be discussed here on the article's talk page. Pinging established users who participated in the RFC and the other discussions related to this subject for their comments @ArsenalFan700:, @ArnabSaha:, @GiantSnowman:, @Drat8sub: @Ludost Mlačani:, @Paine Ellsworth:, @SportingFlyer: @ChrisTheDude:.— Akhiljaxxn (talk) 04:18, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

I have tried to compile the articles I found in the form of this table. I hope it helps/clarifies. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 07:29, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

I've put the articles into a separate sub-category so that discussion can go up here if that's okay. I'm not entirely sure of the procedure here, but there should be three articles based on everything I've read, Mohun Bagan, ATK, and the new club, ATK Mohun Bagan. SportingFlyer T·C 19:08, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

I agree with the sources, ATKMB is either a new club or a continuation of ATK. If having to choose I would maybe go for the latter, as they are refered to as defending champions everywhere and ATK player contracts seem to be still valid for ATKMB. But in any case Mohun Bagan page should not be redirected. Ludost Mlačani (talk) 23:13, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Nowhere it is said that ATKMB is the defending champions. The league website clearly has mentioned that this is the debut season of the club in ISL.[1] Don't put your delusional thoughts without sources. I am simply amazed by the bias of this user Saha to selectively put references of his choice to put forward his propaganda.The official club handle has said in an official tweet "The 1960s was a golden period in our illustrious history", which once again goes on to show that it is a continuation of Mohun Bagan and nothing else [2]. Debarghya89 (talk) 14:24, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Debarghya89 The league website provided by you mentions that this is the debut season of the club in ISL. Then why are you still redirecting the page to the Mohun Bagan A.C. article?. I hope you have already seen the two discussions on the admins' noticeboard related to the previous AFC and the meatpuppetery and sockpuppetery allegations related to the AFC. We are therefore just keeping the status quo before the AFC. You need to obtain consensus before redirecting the page, or else your edits will consider as vandalism and will have to be reported as such.— Akhiljaxxn (talk) 16:56, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Debarghya89, kindly come out of the delusion you are in, and read the articles properly. And maintain civility Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 16:58, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

I noticed this after a recent AfD. It's clear there should be three articles here - one for Mohun Bagan, one for ATK, and one for the merged club, ATK Mohun Bagan. This is not equivalent but not dissimilar to how US clubs which start in MLS with the same brand as a former lower division club get new articles, since they are new organisations. Those discussions have been similarly contentious, but the outcome is correct. This is similar to what we do with other merged clubs, and it's supported by the sources below. I'm not sure the redirect should have been boldly removed, but I support restoring the article. SportingFlyer T·C 17:14, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Consensus was already reached that this is not a new club and continuation of Mohun Bagan. Official twitter handles has also repeatedly made posts about the history of the club emphasizing that it is not a new club. All of that has been conveniently ignored here repeatedly to support a particular propaganda.Akhiljaxxn please provide an explanation of why and how the so called "new club" post about the history of the club in 1960s? Or did you chose to ignore the second link I provided because it did not support your viewpoint? So convenient of you!! Debarghya89 (talk) 18:08, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

If ATK Mohun Bagan is the continuation of Mohun Bagan, why would they rename the old Twitter account of ATK instead of that of Mohun Bagan? Why are there still two accounts for both Mohun Bagan and ATK Mohun Bagan?

The decision of the RFC was not an accurate reflection of the discussion. Multiple established users have expressed this opinion already. It was clearly hijacked by the votes of multiple new editors and IPs. There were lots of tweets and FB posts that can be seen as canvassing attempts.— Akhiljaxxn (talk) 05:23, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Debarghya, the thing you are saying is WP:SYNTH Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 06:43, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Akhiljaxxn Your twitter account logic is so laughable. By that logic this club should be the old ATK FC, and not even a "new club" which your trying to push so hard. And Mohun Bagan has a separate twitter account because it is a multi sports club and they tweet everything from it. Again you have conveniently chose to ignore the fact that the old Mohun Bagan account also tweets about ISL Matches. Also this "ATK MOHUN BAGAN FC" page itself is just a copy paste which at the same time talks about historical rivalries and the Kolkata derby and at the same time calls itself a new club founded in 2020. So much hypocrisy about this page and about users like you. If you are trying to push your propaganda, try harder next time. Be a better liar. Cheers!! Debarghya89 (talk) 15:29, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

this is clearly vandalism. stop it. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 16:33, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

As below, I support the longstanding WP:FOOTY consensus of having a new article for a merged team, so there should be no redirect here. Spike 'em (talk) 17:26, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 1 December 2020

This edit request to ATK Mohun Bagan FC has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The club ATK MOHUN BAGAN FC is a continuation of Mohun Bagan AC and the foundation date of the club is 15th August 1889 and not 1 July 2020. Co-owner Sanjeev Goenka said that it is the continuation of Mohun Bagan's 131 years of history, so, please change it because it is a huge disrespect towards the biggest club of India and ALSO THE NATIONAL CLUB OF INDIA. Parjanyo Pahari (talk) 18:38, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

As noted above, most of the sources treat the merged club as a new club. The history is noted in the body of the article. —C.Fred (talk) 18:41, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

It is a new club in the Indian Super League and not a new club. We also have to remember that only the ownership of Mohun Bagan has changed it is like SC East Bengal with the only difference that ATK was a FC before but now it is just a brand. Only you will fall into danger of being disrespected by billions of MB fans if the foundation date is not 15th August,1889. Parjanyo Pahari (talk) 03:57, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Please change it. ATK Mohun Bagan is not a new club it is 131 years old Parjanyo Pahari (talk) 03:58, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

The biggest proof that it is not a new club is that they showed that ATK Mohun Bagan is the most experienced team in India. They also said that it was the 370th Kolkata derby Parjanyo Pahari (talk) 04:04, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't believe it should be named ATK Mohun Bagan FC, it is a merger with Mohun Bagan to play under that club and keeps that clubs history as you can see from this article here. Then you have The valuation of 20 per cent of the merged entity will be deemed as the value ATK is paying to acquire the footballing rights of the 130-year-old club. this article] that states The valuation of 20 per cent of the merged entity will be deemed as the value ATK is paying to acquire the footballing rights of the 130-year-old club.. The key there is acquirie the rights of the 130 year old club.

We typically create new articles for merged clubs, and it's pretty clear from the other references (see the table above) that this is a new entity entirely, not a "continuation." I also don't see anything in your article which shows that it's keeping the Mohun Bagan club but rather the "brand." SportingFlyer T·C 20:57, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks SportingFlyer, I should pay more attention to the rest of the talk page. I don't have any strong feelings on it but clearly from that, there is a number of sources showing it is a new club and if previous processes is to treat merged clubs as a new article, why is this waiting then to get changed? Does it need another RFC and more notice in that one to look for SPAs? NZFC^(talk)^(cont) 21:02, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

@NZFC: We need more people without strong feelings on this in order to get it right! There's a redirect war going on at the moment because some users think the article should be at Mohun Bagan. I think the last restoration of the redirect was misguided and I discussed it with Onel5969, who restored the redirect. I'd just restore the page now, but I don't want to keep the controversy going. SportingFlyer T·C 21:08, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

List of football club mergers shows we do usually create new articles for merged teams. The exception is rare and appears to be when one team is "absorbed" by the other which is not the case here. SportingFlyer T·C 16:09, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

Well the case here is simple, the team named ATK has been absorbed by Mohun Bagan. Ownership pattern or the continuation of contracts do not matter here. What matters is the branding and club licensing. It is the Mohun Bagan that has been renamed as ATK Mohun Bagan at IFA (the regional local football body) and accordingly in all bodies above it, national and continental. As a virtue of which the club has inherited Mohun Bagan's spot in Kolkata's local football league as well as in AFC Cup. Had the entity been an entirely fresh club, it would have had to apply for fresh licensing and would not have been allowed inherit any particular club's position.

BarcelonaFan995 It is mentioned as a unified club and a new avatar of mohun bagan in the club's official press release. so it is not a new Club. A new Club Founded in 2020 cannot participate in AFC competitions in 2021 by taking the slot which is achieved by the old Club folded in 2020.

This page should remain independent

This page is not for Mohun Bagan club which was founded in 1989. In 2020, Atletico Kolkata (ATK Football Club) and Mohun Bagan merged to form e new entity which is ATK Mohun Bagan. ATK Mohun Bagan, thus, formed only in 2020. Both the previous clubs, Mohun Bagan and ATK, their football division cease to exist now. If at all, at some point in the future, ATK Football Club and Mohun Bagan part their ways, both Mohun Bagan and ATK Football Club will be functional again. Rightfully, ATK Football Club's Wikipedia entry says the same, Mohun Bagan's wiki page is filled with misinformation.

In the upcoming ISL, neither Mohun Bagan nor ATK Football club, but ATK Mohun Bagan will compete. The prudent to keep the ATK Mohun Bagan wiki page independent.

Merger dispute

In yesterday's AGM of Mohun Bagan AC, the controversy about the name ATK was answered by Mohun Bagan's General Secretary.

This situation was caused by some emotional fans like you. @ArsenalFan700: had already started a discussion to rename Mohun Bagan into ATK Mohun Bagan. But most of the Bagan fans opposed the proposal as their emotion does not allowed to see three letters infront of Mohun Bagan. I also had the same idea of ArsenalFan700.

And you should also notice that there are other members also in the current board of directors of the ATK Mohun Bagan club. So, the statements in the article cited by you may be the two representatives' personal opinion or the representing club's opinion; we can't consider them as a unanimous decision by the ATK Mohun Bagan club. Furthermore, you may check the stats of the new club in transfermarkt, one of the largest football-related-website in the world. If this club was a continuation of Mohun Bagan's Football section, then its foundation year would be 1889, not 2020. Also, ATK Mohun Bagan FC's official Facebook page clearly states that this new merged club was formed as part of a merger between football section of multi-sport club Mohun Bagan AC and former ISL side ATK.

@ArnabSaha:. Yes in Wikipedia I have to think neutrally. But you can't ignore official website. The statement are given in ATKMB official website. SAIKAT MARINERS DEY (talk) 07:21, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

@SAIKAT MARINERS DEY, Forwarding the reply I gave to Ztruc above "Even if you go only with website, where in the website does it say that ATK has been removed? Only one thing has been added in the history that the registration of MBAC in FA is used. Nothing else. It is still a merged new cub as per ATKMBFC and MBAC websites. And for your kind information, Wikipedia is above websites, it depends on what secondary sources say. Sources are mentioned below." Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 07:30, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

@ArnabSaha:. If registration of MBAC in FA is used how it's a new club. I kindly inform you that new club, new entity- these words are removed from the ATKMB official website. If ATKMB is a new club, why these words are removed from website??? SAIKAT MARINERS DEY (talk) 08:08, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

@SAIKAT MARINERS DEY why are you looking at one side of the coin? MBAC website doesnt list any footballing activities anymore. It has an official press release stating it to be merged club. ATKMB website has the history, legends of both teams. I can still see this in ATKMBFC website- "In July 2020, the Football section of Mohun Bagan AC and ATK FC came together." And most important thing, secondary sources matters most. Official website can be ignored, but not the sources. (If today ATKMBFC says "we are FIFA Club World Cup winners", will you write that in Wikipedia? It has to be said by multiple sources) Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 08:18, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

The registration with FA is nothing new. It cant be taken into consideration, thus it wasnt taken in the past too. Both clubs are sharing something. The only change is, today its being mentioned in the website. Examples- ATKMBFC played AFC Cup with MBAC slot, whereas playing ISL with ATKFC slot. Social media of ATKFC was continued, players of ATKFC were termed are contract renewal, while MBAC players with long term contract complained (fran gonzalez). Logo and jersey are of MBAC colours, while 3rd kit is from ATKFC. So, its from both clubs. You cant changed the fact/discussion/consensus. Think neutrally. Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 08:24, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

SAIKAT MARINERS DEY, still ATKMB website confirms of the merger in their History section, and also multiple sources (whose respective links have already been provided) also point to the merger last year. ATKMB might continue with the existing registration of Mohun Bagan AC; like it continues MBAC's home and away colors, but again as I said earlier, why are there two different websites, social media handles? So yes, the separate page is needed. Laser Victor 2017 ❯❯❯ talk 09:05, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

ATKMB did not play ISL with ATKFC slot since ATKFC never owned such a slot. The slot was owned by RPSG group which it transfered to Mohun Bagan's football section after their previous football project was scrapped. There is no document suggesting that any ISL slot was ever owned by the name of ATKFC. The registration is the identity of a club. If one club's registration has been revoked and other's continued that means the former has ceased to exist. In case of a true merger, the registration of both the clubs would've been cancelled and there would've been a fresh registration for a new club called ATKMB which certainly is not the case.

As far as the third Jersey is concerned, its colour or design could be a mere coincidence, we don't know. It was never stated that the third Jersey is meant to represent ATK brand of anything as opposed to the home Jersey for which explicit statements were made in media by club directors.

Also, when the Club's official website is saying that the club continues with the "history and heritage" of Mohun Bagan, I think no scope for a debate remains open thereafter. All other sources are secondary to the official website of the very club to which this article is dedicated. Sayanha7 (talk) 09:08, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

The article has to be based upon what the officials sources say, with the club website being foremost of them and not on what one's personal interpretation. This article is in dire need of some neutrality which it badly lacks. Sayanha7 (talk) 09:13, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

"According to an ISL insider, as because Mohun Bagan and ATK are coming as a new entity, the merged club will have to register afresh and will have to pay the Rs 15 crore annual franchise fee." However, nothing such happened as ATK Mohun Bagan FC was never required to register afresh. IAmPushpak (talk) 16:01, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Merge with Mohun Bagan AC

Although a lot about this matter is already discussed before, but still, as a die-heart fan of this historic club, I am starting the discussion again in a new section. I think by creating a new article, it is indirectly meant that this is a new club and not continuation of the century-old club. I must say by meaning so, the dignity of Mohun Bagan club and even the patriotic spirit of the Indians is vilified, reminiscing the fact that the victory of Mohun Bagan against many British football teams during pre-independence era rejuvenated the lost spirit of patriotism in the hearts of crores of Indians. Just as our arch-rivals East Bengal has a single article, the similar thing should be done in case of this football club. Just as the colour and crest of Mohun Bagan is kept intact, the history of the club should be likewise kept unaltered. This page should be dissolved into and not merged with the article Mohun Bagan AC. All Mohun Baganis are hereby requested to raise their voice regarding this burning issue. Thank you.--Michri michri (talk) 08:48, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

I propose to merge ATK Mohun Bagan F.C. into Mohun Bagan AC and rename the latter as the former. For the second article, I want to change the name only. I propose to keep all the history of the century old club intact in the article. So, I want to dissolute this article into Mohun Bagan AC. All the conscientious editors are requested to convey their opinions regarding this matter. Although the proposal was turned down down earlier, I want to start it again. Thankyou Michri michri (talk) 08:12, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Here I am presenting some of the facts to verify that this club is a continuation of Mohun Bagan ---

1. The 'three trophies' (may be star) sign behind the jersey of ATKMB was removed as ATKMB were not the defending champions of ISL, but of the I-League.

2. The colour of the Mohun Bagan is kept intact, which could not have been done, had this club been continuation of ATK or a new football team.

3. Besides colour, the crest too of sailing boat is kept intact and unaltered.

4. Mohun Bagan played the group stage of AFC Cup as the defending I-League champions and not the qualifying playoffs of AFC Cup as the 2nd rankers of ISL points table.

5. The Mohun Bagan-ATK merger has not changed the governance structure of the Mohun Bagan Athletic Club. The club is continuing to have its office-bearers, holding its elections every three years and remaining associated to other sports like cricket.

6. The new company does not have any control over the club ground, dressing-room or anything that are related to Mohun Bagan Athletic Club. The club’s executive committee is carrying on to be in charge of those.

AFC competition

As ATK Mohun Bagan is considered as a new merged club hence Mohun Bagan AFC record shouldn't be included in ATK Mohun Bagan AFC records.

ATK Mohun Bagan is not considered as a new club in it's website it clearly mentioned that ATK Mohun Bagan FC continues with the existing registration of Mohun Bagan Athletic Club with AIFF and IFA and its rich history and tradition.[3]

So why there is a different Wikipedia page??? SAIKAT MARINERS DEY (talk) 18:58, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

To maintain the difference in the two identities, its wise to keep two pages separate. Mohun Bagan AC would be used to refer to the parent club that has other sporting departments too, while ATK Mohun Bagan FC would specifically denote the football team. If both pages are merged and renamed as ATK Mohun Bagan then it would create a confusion because KGSPL bought stakes of only the football team, and Mohun Bagan and ATK Mohun Bagan currently has separate boards that operate at separate specified fields, meaning Mohun Bagan still has an identity beyond football. Comparing to East Bengal's case isn't correct, because Shree Cement had bought stakes of the whole club irrespective of the various sports departments, therefore it was a simpler case to handle. In my opinion, this page should be edited to clear out ATK FC's history instead because ATK FC has nothing to do in this present merged club, and keep Mohun Bagan's brief history only. Debankan ^talk 10:54, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

@Debankan Mullick:, Different Wikipedia means different club. The original Mohun Bagan is mainly about football section rather than other sports division. If ATK Mohun Bagan is considered as the football section of Mohun Bagan not as the new club then this page should be included and merged into the history section in the Mohun Bagan AC page. Actually Wikipedia depends only on reliable sources. World famous reliable sources still consider ATK Mohun Bagan as a new club. Only for this reason two different pages exist.

After the announcement, caution to editors!!! main Rule no. it's next season name is Mohun Bagan SG not this season for this season it's ATK Mohun Bagan FC. This season still has Super Cup and Indian AFC Cup qualifiers, where the team is still ATKMB, change only after completing Indian qualifiers on 29 April or 3 May 2022.

thats what I am saying @SAIKAT MARINERS DEY but see these vague, vagabond anonymous editors continuously coming and changing ATK Mohun Bagan FC to Mohun Bagan Super Giants. Remembering those times when I see a team is going to win a tournament final and editors declare them winners when match is still going. @SAIKAT MARINERS DEY that's why I am asking for page protection for 1 month or till that time qualifying playoff round Indian qualifiers against Hyderabad.

Merging of this page with MBAC Page

The result of this discussion was: Merge. Mohunbagani (talk) 10:01, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

So as this season ends, there won't be any existance of the name ATK Mohun Bagan. So it's better to continue with the old Mohun Bagan AC page and include all the 2020-2022 seasons in the same page. A separate page is no longer needed.

Alternatively, you can make this the football section, just like there is a cricket Section separate page. Then you will have to add all the previous details, preferably since 1889. IAmPushpak (talk) 07:15, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

Football is the main activity of Mohun Bagan, so the first option is better. Update all the details from 2020-23 in Mohun Bagan AC page and delete this page. Mohunbagani (talk) 03:40, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Premature Merger

The article has been merged into Mohun Bagan based on a discussion started here on June 1, 2023. The discussion was closed by one of the editors who already voted in favor of the merger, even though it's not in a proper format. I think the merger is premature per the previous discussions on the admin's notice board 1, 2 and here and needs further discussion, hence why the established users who participated in the previous RFC and the other discussions related to this subject for their comments are being pinged. @ArsenalFan700:, @ArnabSaha:, @GiantSnowman:, @Drat8sub: @Ludost Mlačani:, @Paine Ellsworth:, @SportingFlyer: @ChrisTheDude:, GiantSnowman, Marchjuly, Ohnoitsjamie,Wugapodes.— TheWikiholic (talk) 15:18, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

This discussion was parallelly running in the Mohun Bagan AC talk page, where most of the discussion took place. In both these parallelly discussion, no registered editor spoke against the merger. Only @IAmPushpak suggested an alternative, but then came on board. Two-three anonymous editors (IP addresses) voted against amerger at first, but then did not reply when there points were rebutted thoroughly. Thus, complete concensus was achieved.

Decision about merger was supposed to be taken based on present discussions, not based on what happened 3 years ago, when the issue lacked clarity and was much more controversial. So those discussions are irrelevant in the present context.

Yes I was involved in the discussion, but here it is clearly mentioned that even those who are involved in the discussion can proceed with the merger if consensus is achieved beyond doubt, which was the case here.

So, I do not see why we need to have another discussion on this topic. A standalone page for MBSG will have nothing more to offer than what is already there in Mohun Bagan AC. It will also not stand the scrutiny of notability as MBSG is only a chapter in the long history of the football division of MBAC. I rest my case. Mohunbagani (talk) 19:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Check the above discussions that took place on the admins' noticeboard and read the consensus reached there if you haven't yet. The new team after the merger of Mohun Bagan AC and ATK, played three seasons in the top flight of Indian football as ATK Mohun Bagan FC, and thus warrants a standalone article. Renaming the club ATK Mohun Bagan FC into Mohun Bagan Super Giant will never satisfy the merger of the page into Mohun Bagan FC. If you don't revert your edits I will take this to the admins' talk page again in the coming days. TheWikiholic (talk) 14:41, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

From official documents it is now clear that this is not a merger of ATK and Mohun Bagan, but a joint venture between KGSPL and Mohun Bagan. This is why Mohun Bagan Super Giant has 1 ISL title instead of 4 (confirmed by AIFF), but 6 AFC Cup appearances instead of 2 (confirmed by AFC). Very clearly, Mohun Bagan Super Giant is carrying forward the legacy of ONLY Mohun Bagan. ATK was disbanded in 2020, and it has its own separate page.

You can choose to take it to the admins if you want, but today's decision on merger in my opinion cannot depend on discussions that happened 3 years ago. The clarity that we have on this topic today was absent bavk then. Anyway, I saw absolute consensus, so I proceeded with merger. May be you should have taken your time to oppose this move back then. But now it is done, so do not unilaterally revive this page. Mohunbagani (talk) 15:39, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

As per the about section of Mohun Bagan Super Giant facebook page, it's clear that Mohun Bagan, ATKMB, MBSG are different names used for a same football club. SAIKAT MARINERS DEY (talk) 11:25, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
