List of current All American Football Leauge team rosters

edit
 

A tag has been placed on List of current All American Football Leauge team rosters, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

This is an unnecessary duplication of player rosters already contained in individual articles wikilinked from the All American Football League article. It will be a maintenance headache to maintain this list and the other lists so that they remain in synchronization. In addition, this article's title misspells the word "League".

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Truthanado (talk) 01:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

 

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article List of current All American Football Leauge team rosters, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Why does the NFL have a list? Possibly because it is the country's major league, not a minor league like the AAFL. In my opinion, the NFL should not have a list either and I will have some discussions with other Wikipedians about deleting it. In any case, let's see what the Wiki community does with the delete tag on the AAFL list article. Truthanado (talk) 02:03, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
I did some further investigation. The List of current NFL team rosters includes roster templates for each team, and the same template is used in each team's individual article. That means there is no duplication of data ... the data is in the template and when the roster changes, someone changes the roster template which automatically causes all the list article to be updated. The AAFL list doesn't do that ... it's a copy of the roster text in the individual team's article. I suppose you could change all that to do it the way the NFL does, and that might be acceptable. It would involve a lot of work, though. If you're up for it, go ahead. If you do that, delete teh PROD tag and clearly explain what you plan to do on the article's talk page. (I am also posting thsi text on teh article's talk page so others can understand.) Thanks. Truthanado (talk) 02:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Team Michigan

edit

First, I want to say great work on the team pages. I reserved the names as redlinks early on, although I was secretly hoping that there would be nicknames by the time draft day rolled around. The helmets were on display for the six teams, and Michigan's colors look more like Blue & Gold (as expected, like the Wolverines) than Blue & White. On the other hand, I've not checked the website to see if they have team colors listed. Probably a minor point. Speaking of colors, Team Texas is practically a rainbow-- the helmet has the red, white and blue of the state flag, but during the draft, they showed off the uniform-- Longhorns orange, with a bit of A & M maroon. Anyway, good format for the team pages. This will be an interesting season as it unfolds. Mandsford (talk) 04:28, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

AAFL Logos

edit

Hey man, you did all the hard work. I recorded the broadcast from the online stream that they had available, and then just took some screencaps during the recap of the draft to make sure that I could get the full logos in the frame. Hope that helped.

Hello. I'm sure you meant well in this edit, but please see this on adding explanatory links to bulleted options. -- Hoary (talk) 16:17, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re:Ron Killings

edit

It doesnt matter, WrestleZone is not reliable in terms of confirming that a superstar has signed with a company or not. Unless WWE provides a source, Ron Killings will stay as is.--TrUCo9311 23:11, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Well yes Wrestler Observer is reliable in cases for PPVs but to report contract signing, is unreliable. This is also the reason why we keep the info of Big Show returning to WWE, because there is no primary source saying this.--TrUCo9311 23:23, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

RE: Wikipedians from WV

Take a look at the policy summary at the top of WP:AIV. Once he has received a 4th level warning and then vandalizes, feel free to re-submit. --LeyteWolfer (talk) 23:25, 31 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Your report at AIV

edit

Hello, thanks for helping to remove vandalism from Wikipedia! While we appreciate your reports, administrators cannot block people unless they have been given sufficient warning. You can use these warning messages to warn people if they vandalize an article. Warnings should be given in an increasing order although you should use your own judgment as to what warning should be given. We can only block people if a final warning or something along the lines of "being blocked" is in the warning. See you later! --Hdt83 Chat 23:32, 31 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

That's an odd coincidence. Ha! I got some info from an old Athlon book, but add whatever you want. Tell me when you're finished, so I can check out the end result. Thanks!

Just tell me when. John (talk) 02:34, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Looks good. I think the table looks good on his page. Since I've found all kinds of old magazines and newspapers from 1988 to 2005, I'll probably be updating alot of pages with info. John (talk) 03:00, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Well, if you see any I've created previously, then please feel free to add them. Have you done Slaton's and the other current and recently former players? John (talk) 03:06, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ha! Alright, well good job. John (talk) 03:09, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Alright. Check out Chris Haering and Steve Grant. John (talk) 03:15, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I know. I began to list them on my profile so it can be easier on me. Ha John (talk) 03:29, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Check out the Willie Edwards page. I don't have much info on him. If you've got any, feel free to add. John (talk) 03:44, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
