Sumario:The terminology used in the taxonomies of 31 Web sites of Argentine football soccer clubs (20 official Websites and 11 non-official ones) was analyzed, in accordance to the standards and guidelines for thesaurus construction and authority control for names and subjects. The vocabulary of these Web sites is very colloquial and emotional. There are terms using the determined article (the) as first word, others with a different meaning from that of the standard language need scope notes, some homonyms require parenthetical qualifiers, and several synonyms and pseudonyms (name of players, coaches, stadiums, clubs), as well as abundant terms in English language that demand an equivalence relation. We conclude that the standards and guidelines may be useful to improve precision in the information retrieval, without changing the typical terminology of the football soccer environment.
