Early hockey
Hi, I just wanted to thank you for your articles on the early hockey seasons. Keep it up, and hopefully we'll compile here the complete evolution of hockey and the NHL. Jmj713 20:51, 15 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I hope to put in lots of stuff on the Stanley Cup and teams. Being in Toronto helps for research, definitely. Alaney2k 21:35, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I see you're using the long out-of-print book(s) "The Trail of the Stanley Cup" - where were you able to obtain it, I see it's quite rare and expensive!Jmj713 21:07, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I was able to borrow a copy from the Toronto Public Library Alaney2k 23:52, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Ice Hockey template
Hey man, thanks for starting all the early ice hockey season articles. But, just wanted to say one thing, when you start an article that's ice hockey related (or even if you come across one that doesn't have it) you should open the talk page and add to it. It's just to help WikiProject Ice Hockey keep a list of all the articles. Thanks. Nice work, by the way.  Bsroiaadn Talk 17:40, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Also I think for the early pre-NHL seasons it would be wise to move the "Final Standings" table to the top of the Season information. That was it's easier to see which teams participated in the given season.Jmj713 20:11, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello WikiProject Ice Hockey/Participant
I am an advisor to the National Hockey League. With your help over the next few months I plan to review and correct any information on wikipedia relating to the National Hockey League, its franchises, players, executives and partership organisations. I am here to provide you with information. Your work is appreciated.--NHLsource 18:00, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Image:20070822-sensbig.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:55, 6 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Posting on 'talk pages'
Hello Al, just wanted to give you a tip concerning talk pages. Remember to indent your postings (thus making it easier to read). GoodDay 21:52, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:20070822-sensbig.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:20070822-sensbig.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Trying to end Senators schism
Hello Alan, I've begun a discussion at WikiProject Ice Hockey concerning our continuing schism, over linkage/no linkage topic of the Senators & Senators. I do this primarily for the sake of the numerous Senators relating articles, and secondly for ourselves. Your opions there, would be welcomed. GoodDay 18:42, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
