NIU nameSo there's obviously a disagreement about how to refer to "Northern Illinois University" on this template. The problem is, this isn't the only template/article that references the "NIU Huskies". This is a larger question that should be discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College basketball and probably Talk:Northern Illinois Huskies. There are many factors involved, most notable WP:COMMONNAME, which says articles should be named according to how they are commonly referenced. Based on my quick analysis, the only place that refers to the school as the "NIU Huskies" is the school itself. Other media outlets refer to it as "Northern Illinois Huskies". — X96lee15 (talk) 18:52, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
