I'm concerned about the title of this article. No reliable sources have called this case "Rector v. MLB". Is there any better title that could be used? Kevin (aka L235·t·c) 23:06, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Does "Rector v. Major League Baseball Advanced Media" sound like an acceptable title? Kevin (aka L235·t·c) 05:01, 18 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
I would not oppose this new title. Yousou (Complain) 14:54, 23 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
I've moved it. Best, Kevin (aka L235·t·c) 17:40, 23 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
"After the decision, legal practitioners" One person's opinion, unless you've got other sources.
Still an issue, attribute the position, don't handwave towards multiple "legal practitioners" Or even better yet, lose this sentence which seems to be a fringe position of one man on a blog as the article stands. Courcelles (talk) 19:20, 25 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Both refs 15 and 16 have authors and publication dates available. Ref 10 has an author available.
Still an issue, see now also ref 8. Courcelles (talk) 19:20, 25 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Ref 2? Reliable or not?
Still don't think this is an RS. Courcelles (talk) 19:20, 25 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Ref 14 is explicitly about postseason tickets. This was not a postseason game.
I'[m really worried about the referencing here, which seems overly reliant on blogs for the analysis. Courcelles (talk) 01:50, 21 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Last thing left appears to be the legal practitioners claim about deserving disbarment, which is sourced to one guy's blog. Courcelles (talk) 13:39, 26 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
