Neutrality[edit]

As a reminder, if the neutrality of this article is disputed, please use a neutrality template and hold a discussion on the talk page, instead of reverting and changing on your own. --Wavemaster447 00:21, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, it's only fair to turn to neutrality templates rather than reverting and changing the article to your own liking. --DavidD4scnrt (talk) 08:44, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Picture[edit]

Can we get a good picture of Woody up here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.114.144.106 (talk) 00:56, 1 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Around the Horn[edit]

I found an ESPN bio that should suffice to reference his being a panelist on Around the Horn so that that one-sentence section can lose its "unreferenced" tag: here. Is this uncontroversial enough for me or some other admin to add it? Yngvadottir (talk) 11:56, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me.--Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:40, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK, done - ping me if I should undo this. Yngvadottir (talk) 00:16, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page protection[edit]

This page was fully-protected late last July, due to years-long disruption including disruption by barely-autoconfirmed accounts that could get around semi- and pending-changes protection.

I recommend that in early August 2016, Drmies or another administrator experimentally reduce the edit protection to semi-protection for a year. If there is disruption that gets past the semi-protection it can be upgraded again.

Sidebar comment: This is one of those cases where I wish pending changes level 2 had not been rejected by the community. PC2 would be far better than full protection for this page, while serving the needs of the community by largely removing the motivation to vandalize the page. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:52, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion of "Around the Horn" section.[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I propose that the section read :

Paige is a frequent panelist on the ESPN sports roundtable Around the Horn (existing citation). He has appeared on the show, and won the show, more frequently than any other ATH panelist. Paige is noted for bringing a chalkboard with jocular puns to Around the Horn. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Purplebackpack89 (talk • contribs) 18:25, 18 March 2016‎ (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: @Purplebackpack89: Do you have a citation for the second and third sentences? We probably shouldn't put things in the article that don't satisfy WP:V. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 02:53, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
