Articles for the more popular and "star" players of the league need to be expanded, have citations added to them and hopefully we can get some GA's out of them.
All articles on active players and coaches need to be updated with stats, news, and all things important. (Note: For stats it's best to use ArenaFan.)
Also, we NEED to get things done so we can take them off of the to do list.
Project members are currently working to decide on a roster template to use on all arena football team pages.
The infobox that is for af2 players only is completed and working well. If anyone notices that colors are not correct, please find the hex code for the proper colors and let me (Crash Underride) know. I have currently place in the closest colors I could find.
Current Events
It has been confirmed that Pittsburgh is a strong candidate for a new Arena Football League team, along with Boston and South Florida, although there is no timeline on the league's expansion.
Mike Bawden and Friday Night Football Inc. transferred majority ownership of the Quad City Steamwheelers to Alan Millage and Joe Sisler and A&J Football Inc.
On September 2, 1966Joe Auer returns the opening kickoff 95 yards for a Miami Dolphins touchdown in the Dolphins' first regular-season game, but Oakland wins the game, 23-14 at the Orange Bowl before 26,776 spectators.
On September 4, 1994 Miami Dolphins quarterback Dan Marino throws five touchdown passes in the Dolphins' 39-35 win over New England to set an NFL record with his 18th game of four-or-more touchdown passes.
On September 5, 1994San Francisco wide receiver Jerry Rice caught two touchdown passes and ran for another in a 44-14 victory over the Raiders to surpass Jim Brown as the NFL's career touchdowns leader with 127.
Our goal is to get the number of Stub-Class articles down to 0, in due time. The current article count is listed below, I have placed the forumla that is on the project page that is updated everytime the bot is run and it tallies up our articles and where they are and lists them as seen below, so that no one has to worry about making sure it's updated manually before the newsletter is sent out. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help expand and/or source an article or two. A list is provided in the stub-class category of stub articles that need to be improved, and some should be fairly easy.

New tables have been added to each team article for coaches. It is broken down into six columns. Column one is for the name of the head coach. Column two is for the coachs tenure there. Column three is the coaches regular season win/loss record (ONLY while with THAT team). Column four is for the coaches post season win/loss record (ONLY while with THAT team). Column five is for the coaches most recent coaching staff (if the coach is no longer there, list the coaches last coaching staff), with years that the coaching staff members have been there, the term coaching staff ONLY applies to Offensive Coordinator (to be listed as OC), Defensive Coordinator (to be listed as DC), Special Teams Coordinator (to be listed as ST Coordinator), Fullbacks coach (to be listed as FB coach), Linebackers Coach (to be listed as LB coach), Offensive line coach (to be listed as OL coach), Defensive line coach (to be listed as DL), Wide receivers Coach (to be listed as WR coach), Defensive backs Coach (to be listed as DB coach). And coach that coaches multiple positions is to be listed as QB / FB coach, with a / between each position. Also, the list should start with Offensive Coordinator, then Defensive Coordinator. Place line break (<br>) after each coaching staff members name, and between coaching positions (should the column become wider than what looks good). Column six is for notes about the head coach during their tenure with that team only. Lastly, be sure not to make the columns too wide, if the column becomes wider than what looks good, place a line break (<br>) in the sentence/note.
Current Events
On November 22, the Georgia Force will host tryouts at their practice facility in Flowery Beach, Georgia.
Though Chris Vallozzi owns the Florida Firecats, the addition of the Milwaukee Iron in 2009, will in no way affect the Firecats. His older brother Drew, is behind the new Iron franchise.
On October 10, AFL owners approved a nonbinding letter of intent, that called for Los Angeles-based Platinum to invest $100 million into the league. A step that, as it stands, will dramatically alter the financial and managment structure of the two decade old league.
Tiffany Worsham, V.P. of Business Development for af2 has contradicted the claims made by D. J. Daniels, the investor interested in bringing a team back to Macon, Georgia. Claiming that there is "no reason for any optimism." She also went on to say that "serious conversations about the subject ended a few months ago."
Derek Stingley, it was announced, is a candidate for the head coaching position with the Albany Firebirds of af2.
Steve Clary, Jim Guy Tucker two owners of the Arkansas Twisters have decided to forego their shares of the team, as "they both were too busy with their other businesses."
Derek Stingley, has removed himself from the list of candidates for the head coaching position of the af2's Albany Firebirds, as he has "another coaching opportunity closer to his family's home in Baton Rouge, La."
