Name
There's a dialect difference on the name of this game. In North America, the game played on ice is simply "hockey" and the related game played on grass is "field hockey". Various other parts of the English-speaking world call the game played on grass "hockey" and the one on ice "ice hockey". As a Canadian, I of course want to move this article to "hockey"; the term "ice hockey" strikes me as an abomination.
I'm not sure what CZ should do about this. Perhaps "hockey" needs to be a disambiguation page?
