At a minimum, an entry for a facility should include the following:

- Information about the organizations and events that use the facility.
- A history of the facility, including:
- The planning and construction
- Name changes (including new or changing sponsors)
- Famous moments (including any championship events)
- Closure and demolition of the facility
- Any external links to official web sites of the facility
- Succession boxes for:
- Present tenants
- Present event hosting
