Recent changes and vandalism
I have reverted recent acts of vandalism conducted by Ayusin. The acts comprise unexplained edits involving deletions of lists that have been long undisturbed and maintained by community consensus. The edits cannot be said to have been made in good faith due to the lack of explanation and the arbitrary conduct prevailing in the edits. Further, there have been edits made by the said user involving the use of names that do not reflect the colloquial references to individuals. While these may spell out the complete name, community consensus has long held the appropriateness of using the names by which popular individuals are named when placing them in lists, with the proper or given names elucidated in the individual person's article, if any, instead.

Fair use rationale for Image:Bomberslogo.jpg
Image:Bomberslogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:CSB-Blazers.png
The image Image:CSB-Blazers.png is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:

– Each of these articles involve multiple actual championships, so it has to be plural. Now since each doesn't refer to an individual championship, it is a common name. I am soliciting suggestions on where "(Philippines)" appears, if applicable; is it at the end, or after "NCAA"? Howard the Duck (talk) 21:37, 19 March 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 14:44, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * NCAA Basketball Championship (Philippines) → NCAA basketball championships (Philippines)
 * NCAA Badminton Championship (Philippines) → NCAA badminton championships (Philippines)
 * NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship (Philippines) → NCAA beach volleyball championships (Philippines)
 * NCAA Chess Championship → NCAA chess championships
 * NCAA Football Championship (Philippines) → NCAA football championships (Philippines)
 * NCAA General Championship → NCAA general championships
 * NCAA Soft Tennis Championship (Philippines) → NCAA soft tennis championships (Philippines)

 * NCAA Track and Field Championship (Philippines) → NCAA track and field championships (Philippines)
 * NCAA Volleyball Championship (Philippines) → NCAA volleyball championships (Philippines)
 * Oppose per WP:SINGULAR. These are single things with multiple editions.  The article is rightly Super Bowl, not Super Bowls. Quale (talk) 15:17, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Every item has at least two separate and distinct championships; the chess ones, for example, have Seniors' and Juniors' championships. There's not just one "NCAA Chess Championship," but two. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:48, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * do you still disagree with this move? Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 06:07, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I do disagree, but a quick look showed me NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships – Men's 100 meter dash which is similar and uses the plural. I may be out of step with common Wikipedia practice. Quale (talk) 22:27, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The NCAA in the US and the NCAA in the Philippines are different organizations, and are organized differently. For sports with specific events or disciplines (such as swimming, taekwondo and track), individual event champions are indeed lost to history; what WP:RS list are the tournament seniors and juniors champions. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:39, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Support each are basically two in one articles (Junior and Senior championships) Hariboneagle927 (talk) 21:55, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Regarding the placing of "Philippines". I would argue that we could have it as "NCAA Philippines X championships" instead as per WP:NATDIS. "NCAA Philippines" (or National Collegiate Athletic Association of the Philippines) itself is a name used by the organization. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 22:14, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
 * It is not called "NCAA Philippines" in common parlance. No one says "NCAA Philippines Season 98". Howard the Duck (talk) 01:42, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Question Shouldn't there be some Consistency with all NCAA Championships? 1AmNobody24 (talk) 14:07, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * NCAA (Philippines) is not related to the NCAA in the US. Howard the Duck (talk) 02:01, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but does that matter? Both are athletic associations so the naming should be the same. Having the country in brackets should be fine, but the rest should be the same, no matter the country. 1AmNobody24 (talk) 05:12, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Good question. The US NCAA has articles for each different championship and tournament; in the Philippines, all championships in one sport (or discipline, for example, 3×3 basketball and beach volleyball are treated differently) is under one article. It's akin in having the US NCAA's 3 divisional basketball championships under one article. In the US articles, it makes sense for it to be in singular and as a proper noun; in the Philippines articles, it makes sense for it to be as a common noun and in plural.
 * Also, it makes sense for the Philippine NCAA and the UAAP articles to be named exactly alike (save for the dab).
 * So this is a question of how the articles are organized. The US treata every championship separately, in the Philippines, all championships under one sport are under one article. Howard the Duck (talk) 11:24, 30 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Support change with respect to capitalization. No opinion on the plural vs. singular issue. BD2412  T 00:51, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
