Blue Moon Odom

The career stats box on Blue Moon Odom needed fixing. Why would you undo that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.45.113 (talk) 10:30, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Fair use images of movie/tv characters

Hi Yankees10, I was just checking out one of the images you added at Geno Silva unfortunately we can't use these kinds of pictures to identify living people. Since he's alive it stands to reason that it would be easy to create a free image of him, and even such it is unlikely that he dresses up as "The Skull" on a daily basis as he's out and about so it's probably not an overly accurate representation of him anyway. The image is still available for viewing for those who continue through the part on the Skull anyway. If you have any questions or need any help with images feel free to get a hold of me on my talk page. Thanks!--Crossmr (talk) 10:08, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

inre Tyler Herron

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from Tyler Herron, which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

Again, and with respects, I have removed the deletion prod from the article, as it is ineligable for proposed deletion as it had previously been discussed at an AFD. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyler Herron and then Wikipedia:Proposed deletion#Nominating. You are welcome to renominate for AFD. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 09:14, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Preston Parker

Hey man GO BUCS!! Good job creating the Preston Parker article. I just finished adding info and more refs. Take a look! KING OF WIKIPEDIA - GRIM LITTLEZ (talk) 05:57, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Grim Littlez, it appears you paraphrased the "College career" section too closely to the Florida Seminoles bio that it could be considered a copyright violation. Please cleanup the entire section or remove it. Eagles 24/7 (C) 06:07, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
Disregard this Yankees10, we've discussed it and I re-wrote teh violations. KING OF WIKIPEDIA - GRIM LITTLEZ (talk) 07:35, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Just cuz it was 10 years doenst make it notable enough

What a surprise, you again. Well let me take the time to once again address the situation. As you may remember a little over a year ago, we had this same problem, and both you and I made our presence known on WP: Baseball. And while there was an agreement to include the coaching history for both current coaches and coaches who had a long, or as you like to put it, notable career, there was never a consensus for past coaches, as the discussion quicky changed from coaching history to a World Series titles.

Now let me put it in perspective, I simply cannot take your opinion that Rod Carew was not a notable coach, as you obviously have no knowledge about the subject which became all too clear when you wrote " Seriously I highly doubt anybody remembers (or cares) that Carew was a coach". Why? Because you don't remember him as a coach? Come on you never even saw him play. Eight years as a coach for one team is an impressive feat and he was huge part of Jim Edmonds, Garrett Anderson, Darin Erstad and Tim Salmon's careers.

Now I understand that maybe guys like John Wetteland and Rickey Henderson may have not had long, notable coaching careers, but nevertheless their coaching history should be put in the infobox for information purposes, it's simply a part of their baseball career. Now please, let's end this bickering nonsense. Beast from da East (talk) 21:33, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Ok. I don't care anymore. Maybe i'll bring it back to WP:baseball sometime later but for now I don't want to be bothered by it. Are you still on Pinstripe Alley?--Yankees10 21:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Nope, I was banned by Lord Duggan twice. But I'm still hopeful that I can make a comeback at some point, gotta get in contact with Brandon. Beast from da East (talk) 22:03, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
I saw that ban coming from a mile away. He didnt seem to care for you much, lol.--Yankees10 23:40, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Michael Boley

Michael Boley did peg that dude in the face, objectively. I provided a source reference of indisputable evidence, and didn't imply that it was intentional or detrimental to his character in any way. In short, what's your beef, bro?

Rule 5 Protection Day

I appreciate your creating stubs for players newly added to 40 man rosters, but a lot of them are too incomplete for stubs or include errors. For instance, you created David Adams (baseball) with no sources and only one category. Also, you used a source for the Reds adding Didi Gregorius that was actually just about who the Phillies added. There is no rush to create these stubs. It would be better for you to take more time and do a more complete job on some rather than creating incomplete stubs for all of them. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:04, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Starling Marté article name

Bolding in navboxes

I'm not sure if there was ever a formal discussion about bolding in navboxes, but the dominant standard formatting for college football and college basketball navboxes is to bold the main subjects of the navbox where there are a parenthetical descriptors that are also wikilinked. There are many examples of this. See:

Whether the bolding here is the best option is certainly debatable, but it should be considered with this entire class of navboxes in mind. There are a few others of this sort, but I think the five categories above contain the bulk of them. You may want to bring the issue up at one or both of the project talk pages. Thanks.

Your nomination for deletion of – James F. Roe

Just a note, you did not transclude this article in the Articles for deletion log page when you nominated it for deletion, as required in step 3 of the subsection "How to nominate a single page for deletion” on the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion page. Another user has performed this step for you to complete the process. In the future, please follow all of the required steps when nominating an article for deletion. Thank you.

Proposed deletion of Johnny Dingle and Marc Magro

I have removed the prod tags you placed on Johnny Dingle and Marc Magro, as both articles have been discussed at AfD and kept due to no consensus, and are therefore permanently ineligible for prod. Compliance with policy is the only reason I did this; I have no comment on the merits of deletion. If you still wish to pursue deletion, I recommend going over the arguments made in the previous deletion discussions as well as WP:BEFORE before re-nominating at AfD. —KuyaBriBriTalk 15:22, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Frankie Crosetti

I don't understand you. I truly don't. You've been told 1000 times NOT to change "All Star" to "All Star Selection," yet for some reason, you still insist upon doing it. What is the reasoning behind your completely unnecessary undoing of the changes I made to Frankie Crosetti? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.219.206 (talk) 20:48, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Just a note, I understand he's annoying, but pushing the buttons that way is probably not going to help things. Ignore and block is probably a better course of action. Cheers. — KV5 • Talk • 01:01, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
Before you get all in a huff, I undid your edit to Frankie Crosetti because it was inaccurate. He became a coach with the Yankees in 1946. May I also add that your redoing of the infobox really is unnecessary. Why would you change the way "World Series Year" is written in the infobox to a longer more cumbersome version? I seem to also recall that World Series crowns were supposed to come first, before all star selections in an infobox as this is a team sport (don't ask me to be able to pull up that conversation), and the team reaching the pinnacle of success is the main thing. Even if I am wrong about the discussion, and what was determined from it, this certainly holds true in Crosetti's case. What is his ultimate achievement as a player? I would think that he holds the record for most World Series titles. Try to have an intelligent debate with me on this, please, and don't just get angry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.219.206 (talk) 10:53, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
I kinda knew that you were incapable of it when I asked, but I figured I'd give it a shot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.219.206 (talk) 00:23, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Tyrann Mathieu

Just curious why you have deleted the table of stats that I added to the page for Tyrann Mathieu. It is common on many athletes pages to see a chart or table of their stats each year or over their career (see Patrick Peterson the previous LSU defensive player to wear #7) and that is what I added to this page.

Are you saying add a legend to explain the categories? Or are you saying the table is excessive? I have attached it to show it is simple and only has a few categories, which adds to the overall information that is provided on this athlete.

Games Tackles Ast Sacks INT DefTD FF FR SpTD

Kingsnoopy (talk) 22:44, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your quick reply, the Wikipedia:NOTSTATS article says that "excessive stats" should be avoided, not that stat tables are not allowed. Also on this page it makes it easier to read in a stat table rather than a paragraph full of numbers (i.e. Mathieu had 71 total tackles (54 solo and 17 assists), 1.5 sacks, 5 forced fumbles (2 returned for a touchdown), and 2 interceptions) in comparison to the much easier to read stat table. Kingsnoopy (talk) 23:00, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

My intent was not to add one line of data on the table. As is common with sports athletes I intended to list the statistics for all of this athletes college years in the table, which would be easier to read in a table rather than a lengthy list of data. When it comes to athletes whether football, baseball, basketball, or hockey the fans and those looking for the information are eager to have access to data that they can quickly reference and read.Kingsnoopy (talk) 23:55, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

ESPY

Please explain to me how ESPY's are not notable for an infobox, and how it is up to you whether it is notable enough? I feel that it should be discussed before deleted. ESPY's are notable enough to have an article devoted to each award, so that would indicate that they're more than notable enough.Racingstripes (talk) 04:41, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

If my counting is correct the ESPY's are notable enough to have 51 separate articles. In my experience if something has that many articles devoted to it, it is pretty notable.Racingstripes (talk) 04:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
The Sporting News Player of the Year Award is not an official MLB award but that listed in infoboxes.04:52, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Can you direct me to this discussion about awards or infoboxes cause I can't find it.Racingstripes (talk) 04:57, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In Jarius Wright, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Warren High School (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Proposed deletion of Isaiah Crowell

The article Isaiah Crowell has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Crowell doesn't meet notability requirements at WP:NCOLLATH. He has not won any awards or set any records, and is only known because he was a starter for the Georgia Bulldogs football team. The page is also mostly just a catalog of the 2011 Georgia football season.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
