Image requests
Hi, I noticed you made a few requests for photographs of various ice hockey players on their articles. I greatly appreciate your requests and thank you for your contributions. However, image requests should not be made on an artice's page, they should be made on an article's talk page. If you wish to request a photograph for any article, go to the article's discussion page and add |needs-image=yes to the WPBiography section. Image requests to ice hockey players, like the ones you made, can also go into the ice hockey section of the talk page, again using |needs-photo=yes, below are examples,

WPBiography |needs-photo=yes
 * living=yes
 * class=start
 * priority=low
 * sports-work-group=yes
 * listas=Austin, Taylor

ice hockey|class=stub|needs-photo=yes|needs-infobox=yes

Hopefully this will be useful towards future requests you should make. May I be honest to say you are fortunate to have someone like me to contact you about, a number of users (not naming anyone in particular) would instanly rip your head off over these kind of edits, but I wish to reach out to fellow users and help them out, thus I am sending you this message of assist, rather than an instant warning from "someone who knows better than you".

Should you have any other queries, feel free to either respond here or send me a message on my talk page. Best of luck. Raphie (talk) 13:41, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

KHL article updates
Thank you for your editing help on the KHL players stubs that I created. However, deleting the previous team's information as your did on Evgeny Busygin‎, Evgeny Skachkov, Alexander Seluyanov‎, Hannu Pikkarainen‎, Nikita Schitov‎, and Evgeny Konobry‎ only removes information and does nothing to help improve the article. When updating a player's team status, please keep the player's history in the article, and also add to the article by updating with current information. And again, thank you.

Cheers
Thanks for noting the French article for Nail Yakupov on this Wiki. I've gone ahead and added the current seasons' stats on the French version noting I'm a user of .en in making the edit and am simply adding the stats. The table seems to have a couple of the bottom borders missing, not sure why. I was thinking of copying the English table to the French and changing the labels. What is your opinion on this?

Also, since "Nail Yakupov" is a proper name, I think the article actually needs to be moved on the French Wiki to the proper name. CycloneGU (talk) 15:34, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Stop deleting valid references
When updating articles do not remove valid references as you did here. Instead, please expand the article with the new information, and give additional references as required. Dolovis (talk) 16:43, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

Maxim Mamin
Thank you for your work on updating some of the articles on KHL players. I ask, however, that to help grow the articles it would be helpful if you would add content to articles to explain the progression of a players career. Simply deleting content, as you did with Maxim Mamin, does not add to the informative value of this article. At minimum, a recognition within the article that he had played three games with the former team before being released would be expected. Ideally, if reliable sources are available, an explanation of why this player was released would add to the article's encyclopedic value. Cheers. Dolovis (talk) 13:43, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
