Speed Energy Formula Off-Road → Stadium Super Trucks – I brought this up at WT:MOTORSPORT nearly a month ago, but received no answer. To repeat what I said: the series' standings pages has given a logo depending on what is the branding used each season; for example, 2013 has the "Speed Energy Stadium Super Trucks" logo, while 2014 uses "Speed Energy Formula Off-Road presented by Traxxas" as that is the name the series had rebranded to that year (and why this article is at its current name); the series' 2014 playlist on YouTube also uses the name for a few races. This further applies to the 2015 season standings, while articles from that year also feature the term.
However, when you go to the 2016 standings, it reverts back to "Speed Energy Stadium Super Trucks (presented by Traxxas)", and Formula Off-Road is nowhere to be found in 2016 news articles. If you check out the 2017 and 2018 standings, the Traxxas suffix is dropped entirely and it's once again just "Speed Energy Stadium Super Trucks". Ctrl-F'ing "Formula Off-Road" in the latest articles brings up no results.
While it might be reasonable to just move the article back to its original name, I'm concerned if doing so falls under WP:NOR territory, especially as there are no reliable sources covering this quiet name change.

- Stadium Super Trucks isn't all the specific. It's not the name of the series. Without the word Super it's the vanilla name for all such vehicles. Is it really the best name? --Falcadore (talk) 14:42, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
- If I recall correctly, "Stadium Super Trucks" was the original name for the page before the initial rebranding. The series currently goes by "SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks", so maybe we can add the "Speed Energy" prefix (though not in all-caps per MOS:TM)? After all, Formula Off Road is the name of a Nordic motorsport that has no relation to this series, so we have "Speed Energy" at the prefix. NFLisAwesome (ZappaOMatic) 16:42, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
