It was protected from recreation because people kept creating the article again when it was already transwikied here. Sr13 07:27, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Please read WP:DATE for correct formatting instructions
Hi. I reverted your edits to Tony Malinosky because they were not in compliance with WP:DATE. Please note that places of birth and death are not to be entangled within the bracketed lifespan of the individual. Thank you. Cheers, CP 05:34, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

dates comment
Thanks for your comment at MOSNUM talk. You may be interested in looking at this information page about the issue. Tony  (talk)  09:03, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * In response to your more recent post there: well, no it wouldn't solve the problems. Our poor management of date formats is to a large extent caused by DA, which stops editors seeing the formats that our readers see, and that have been chosen already in an article.
 * So a British editor comes along to the article on J. F. Kennedy and adds a few dates in British format, since that's what she's noticed in display-mode. Then we have a mixture of formats in the article's main text, which is what our readers see. My auditing of date formats has shown this to be a major problem.

Re: Joel Adamson
There was a discussion on WP:WSS/P about changing from when players played to when they were born, WP:Baseball was told about it at the time and input was requested, and User:Fabrictramp was the only person from baseball to comment. Waacstats (talk) 08:42, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
