Ticketing Information edit

I have reverted back to the revision with all of the ticketing information, the seating allotment is quite interesting information, which is backed up by inderpendant reliable sources, also the pricing is also critcised heavily, it may be criticised every year, but it once again has RS and compliments the ticketing information well.

Once the grand final is over in a couple of weeks, nobody is going to care how the seats were allocated or how much the tickets cost. This article is a historical record of the game, and I don't believe we should be watering it down with trivial complaints like ticket costs and trivial details like the cost of a seat. Reliable sources are important but so is notability. If we wrote sections based on every media article written to fill up the newspapers we would have a lot of pointless information detracting from what people really come here to see.

In order for the article to maintain neutrality, i think the criticisms of the pricing of the tickets need to be kept. Also the fact that the AFL has been attacked on its allotment of seats is also quite notable. Twenty Years 12:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
I think if anything this is damaging the neutrality of the article. To me the whole section screams of an agenda to complain about ticket prices and allotments. Do you think anyone will care one single bit once the game is over? I know if I saw similar trivialities in past Grand Final articles I would remove it. Remy B 14:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
Upon going away for a while, and thinking about this. I have come to the conclusion that the information on the exact pricing of the tickets could be viewed as advertising, and ill delete that now. But the text and the quote is fine, as is the information about the ticketing allotment, but that may be needed to be turned into prose. Twenty Years 14:49, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
