Undrafted year

edit

According to the {{Infobox NFL player}} template, the parameter undraftedyear states that it can be used in favor of draftyear if player went undrafted. The year should correspond to the first year a player was eligible for the draft, regardless of when they first signed with an NFL team or played in the league. I initially filled this out and put in 2005 based on that the current rules for eligibility says that a player who has been out of high school for at least three years. I don't know for certain what year he graduated/left high school or if the eligibility rules were the same at the time, but based his age, I assumed 2002, so three years later is 2005. Granted, I guessed so it's technically original reseach, but I think that's at least a bit more accurate than the current year of 2012 that it was changed to in the infobox. Since it's OR either way, do we change it back or leave it out entirely until we get a source, or... whatever? Jauerbackdude?/dude. 15:58, 4 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Brian Banks (American football)Brian Keith Banks – We know his middle name, using that is more concise and easier to type than "American football". --Relisted. -- tariqabjotu 02:24, 21 July 2013 (UTC) Ranze (talk) 02:37, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Neutral on possible alternative move to primary, see Talk:Brian Banks supplanting baseballer. Human interest and legal rights notability extends beyound football and may not just be WP:RECENT. In ictu oculi (talk) 04:10, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Need a separate Wanetta Gibson article

She committed a tremendous crime of fraud that affected thousands of school children and slandered an innocent man, ruining the start of this man's career, and was only punished with a monetary judgement, not a jail sentence. The case is notable, still spreads through social media, and will probably yet lead to changes in laws nationwide. "Wanetta Gibson" should not redirect here.
