Len Bias - Please avoid weasel words
Please take some time to read this guideline: avoid weasel words. I am confident that after reading, it will make sense to you why you shouldn't have a sentence like the one you keep on inserting on Len Bias. The references you gave are good, but do not support your statement. That is why you should consider rephrasing to something else that is verifiable. This is a basic principle of wikipedia that is strongly tied to wp:npov.

Thank You. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 14:41, 29 November 2009 (UTC)


 * One article does not support "generally considered". You would have to cite, I don't know...  40-50 articles to support that statement.  That's why you should reword it.  --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 01:40, 1 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, the history showed that you undid, but I guess that's misleading. "Experts is kind of a strong word", but if you want to revert me go ahead. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 02:05, 1 December 2009 (UTC)


 * It's a bit late, but I just want to say I'm glad we were able to resolve this, and happy editing --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 17:08, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

NBA All-Defensive Team
I think a limit need to placed on the Most selections table because obviously it cannot include everyone.— Chris! c / t 22:34, 11 December 2009 (UTC)


 * That's true, although theoretically it could include every player since only about 100 players have ever made an NBA All-Defensive team. But I think the minimum should be 5 All-D First Teams, which is where it's currently set.Hoops gza (talk) 22:39, 11 December 2009 (UTC)


 * The group of players with 4 All-D First Teams is a truly stellar class of defenders. I'm considering including them, it's only eight more players.Hoops gza (talk) 22:56, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Edits
As a friendly note, can you consolidate your edits a bit when you edit a page? I understand that making small minor edits is helpful and is absolutely fine because it is not against any policy. But that pattern of editing can distort the page history and make edit conflict easier to occur.— Chris! c / t 20:24, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Yo, I just wanted to let you know that I've kind of been the main editor for the statistical NBA pages (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, 3s, and FTs) for over a year now...so I had to undo some of your recent edits. I always update immediately after games so just to give you a heads up if you could let me have those :-) thanks Coulraphobic123 (talk) 03:12, 27 October 2010 (UTC)Coulraphobic123

Note
For sortable table, every items should be linked because you never know which item appears first after sorting.— Chris! c / t 00:08, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you know why 17 game streaks is chosen to be the minimum? It seems arbitrary to me. Should we expand the table to include 15 or 16 game streaks?— Chris! c / t 00:12, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I can see the logic behind that. But the NBA article here also includes 16 game streaks. Should we at least expand the table to cover 16 game streaks. To me, 16 game streaks seem pretty rare.— Chris! c / t 00:51, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I see your concern although imo I don't think we should stop including 16 game streaks just because of that. I understand that the NBA article is far from comprehensive, but with more researches I think I can make this list as comprehensive as possible. Anyway, I would not try to include 16 game streaks right now because of this concern.— Chris! c / t 01:29, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Dwight Howard
I left a resp on my own talk page and I've started the discussion in the talk page, but I wanted to let you know that you're already past WP:3RR. --Mosmof (talk) 18:18, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy Deletions
This was just plain disruptive. Please don't disrupt Wikipedia just to make a point. I already declined your speedy as the article doesn't meet speedy deletion criteria. I have directed you at least twice already, but WP:AFD is the appropriate venue for deletion discussions. --Smashvilletalk 22:55, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Michael Jordan
Please see WP:SEEALSO – "Links already integrated into the body of the text are generally not repeated in a "See also" section, and navigation boxes at the bottom of articles may substitute for many links (see the bottom of Pathology for example)." In addition, two editors have now reverted your addition to the see also section. The usual course of action is to discuss the edit on the talk page instead of blindly reverting. Dabomb87 (talk) 20:21, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I've started a discussion here. Dabomb87 (talk) 20:27, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The links have removed again after a couple more editors agreed that the links were not necessary. Please do not reinstate them until you gain a consensus to do so. Thanks, Dabomb87 (talk) 21:04, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Once again, please do not continue to reinstate contested edits. Please discuss on the talk page first. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:28, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I would strongly advise you to discuss any edits you want to make to Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant on their respective talk pages first. I think you know that your edits are controversial, but too often, you go forward anyway. You do some good work elsewhere, so I don't want to see you blocked, but you've been on thin ice for a while. Zagalejo^^^ 20:29, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Putting in a similarly contentious claim in Dennis Rodman after two editors warned you not to insert such statements in articles without discussion (or an edit summary, at that) is bordering on disruptive. Please be more careful. Dabomb87 (talk) 02:10, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Ray Allen
Hiya. Let's discuss your recent reversion of my formatting edits at Ray Allen. Also, I notice that you do not, as a rule, leave an edit summary of your edits; I'd encourage you to do so, as it helps other editors follow your work...PRRfan (talk) 02:29, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

September 2010
Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to George Clinton (musician). Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:04, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Dennis Rodman. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:06, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Please stop introducing jokes into articles, such as those you created at Talk:George Clinton (musician). Wikipedia is a serious encyclopedia, and contributions of this type are considered vandalism. Continuing to add jokes and other disruptive content into articles may lead to your being blocked from editing. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:18, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Dennis Rodman
Please read WP:BLP. Unsourced material may be removed from a BLP on sight. Repeatedly restoring it is edit-warring. If you restore it again without providing sources, you will be blocked. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:38, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I read the content in question at Dennis Rodman. Please read WP:BLP. "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion." — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:43, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * That's a good idea. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:49, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * The reverted additions aren't so much a BLP problem as they a violation of our other core content policies: verifiability, no original research, and neutral point of view. Even if Rodman had died 50 years ago, that paragraph would be problematic. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:50, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

The paragraph needs some work, but since it has been documented in books, it is verifiable and is not original research. The only problem is subjectivity. With some fine tuning it could be non-problematic.Hoops gza (talk) 19:56, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Jokes
Seriously, if you want to add jokes to articles, like you did at Patrick Ewing, head over to Uncyclopedia. Don't make extra work for other editors here. It's a pain to check through all of your edits. Zagal e jo^^^ 04:25, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

Slavko Vraneš
Hello. Vraneš may have once measured 2.26 however he is at an age whereby one may still just about grow, and there are more sources to state that he is now 2,29 and these are measured sources. This coincides with what he declares and what people say he is. Earlier sources did have him at 2,26. Anyhow, please be aware that when making reverts, you may not remove sources in the process. Such behaviour is unconstructive and can lead to a block from editing. If there is more doubt concerning his height then it is fine to give two heights along with sources to explain dicrepancy. Note that all 2.10+ basketball players have disputed heights over one or two inches for various reasons. Furthermore, Vraneš has not played in the NBA or had anything to do with it since 2003, then he was just 20. Evlekis (Евлекис) 18:56, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Ah, you are talking at last. There is a way around it. You (or we) will need to add a footnote to confirm that this was his height at the time, since that is the subject of the article. I didn't realise your interest was NBA only, it seems odd but fair considering. Evlekis (Евлекис) 22:05, 19 September 2010 (UTC)


 * How about now? A minute or so after your last revert. Evlekis (Евлекис) 22:09, 19 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I've noticed. You've done a good job and I'm glad we've reached a solution. They'll be no more need for reverting now. Evlekis (Евлекис) 22:17, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

Larry Steele
Do you ever intend to add a source for your addition to Larry Steele? Zagal e jo^^^ 05:06, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, my concern is that there's nothing at all online that confirms it. If it was a commonly used nickname, I'd expect some evidence for it. Maybe it was only used a handful of times on tv or the radio. Zagal e jo^^^ 05:49, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Requesting moves
Hi I noticed you moved List of National Basketball Association players with most points in a game. I don't mean to jump on you but you should attempt to reach a consensus on the article's talk page before moving it. Quadzilla99 (talk) 21:49, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I noticed the change too, as is the case with all of the other NBA statistical leaders pages. Sweeping changes are being made to established pages without a hint of consensus. Jrcla2 (talk) 03:52, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure a list of every player's career highs is necessary either, which is another thing that Hoops is adding. I applaud a lot of his work; filling out all of those templates is no joke, but there should be at least some attempt made to discuss some things occasionally. Quadzilla99 (talk) 05:14, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I just thought that the title changes would make more sense for searches by people. A common search term would probably be "most assists in a game" as opposed to "22 or more assists in a game". Since I titled most of those pages, I thought that it wouldn't be a big deal to change them.Hoops gza (talk) 14:03, 30 October 2010 (UTC)


 * But the numbers may have significance, and by re-titling them the significance is lost. Whether you created a particular article or not is irrelevant in the context or moving it; if it's a non-controversial move (for example, moving Ronnie Mccollum to Ronnie McCollum because of stylistic and capitalization importance) then that's fine. But when pages are being moved because someone thinks that the new title would "make more sense", that's when problems arise since it's an opinion, not a fact. I happened to take a keen interest in this conversation because I created and wrote the content for every article in the template NCAA Division I men's basketball statistical leaders, and then I began to worry that you were going to go in and start moving those without discussing it (for the record, each NCAA article's number in the title has significance and so moving the pages would be erroneous on multiple accounts). Jrcla2 (talk) 02:47, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * While Hoops gza should have discussed before moving the pages, I do think that the title changes make more sense. All the pages are basically about players who lead in a particular statistical category. The number is merely a cutoff point and including that somewhere on the articles is fine.— Chris! c / t 03:14, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Album/song moves
Please don't move articles unnecessarily. Where we only have one article with a particular title, there is no need to have '(album)' in the title, and where there are several topics with the same title but only one album, or one that is clearly the primary topic, '(album)' is sufficient - adding the artist's name to the article title is redundant. Thanks.--Michig (talk) 18:17, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

We only disambiguate article titles when it is necessary to do so, not just in case another article is created in the future. Please stop these moves. Thanks.--Michig (talk) 18:30, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Raised at WP:ANI here.--Michig (talk) 18:35, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Warning in regards to your Article moves
I'm not going to template you - but I must warn you that continuing to move album and song articles during an ongoing ANI discussion is disruptive, and does nothing to help convince other editors that your position has merit. Please stop moving articles until the ANI discussion has determined where consensus lies for such moves. If you continue to move articles while discussion is ongoing, be advised that You may be Blocked from editing. Thank you. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 19:56, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Serious warning
You are right on the verge of getting blocked. Stop now! Looie496 (talk) 19:54, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

WP:BURDEN
No, it is not "good enough". The material has been challenged. The material about "When the Levee Breaks" is obviously false, as the song is ten years older than the book the statement claims it references. The material about "Black Dog" needs a source. I've challenged it. I've removed it. WP:BURDEN says that it is your responsibility to find a source before restoring the material. Find a source. Add back the parts you can source. Do not add blatantly false material to articles.&mdash;Kww(talk) 23:57, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you have no concept of sourcing? Do you not bother to read WP:BURDEN?&mdash;Kww(talk) 00:30, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

"Sourcing" doesn't mean something like "Source "It Might Get Loud". Find a page number, author, publisher, and quote, as the source you have added is completely inadequate. And, in this case, since the statement about "When the Levee Breaks" cannot possibly be true, that part should never have been readded.&mdash;Kww(talk) 00:43, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

What is inadequate about audiovisual material like a documentary? JIMMY PAGE HIMSELF has said it.Hoops gza (talk) 00:45, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * You need to cite it properly. What's "It Might Get Loud"? Who produced it? What date was it released? At what point in the documentary is the statement made? What exactly is the statement? Who exactly made it? Certainly Jimmie Page didn't say that Memphis Minnie named the song in reference to "Grapes of Wrath". Even if he had, the statement couldn't be used because it's demonstrably impossible. The statement you keep putting back says nothing about themes of the album or anything of the kind, it specifically says that the song was named in reference to the book.&mdash;Kww(talk) 01:04, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Warning
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Led Zeppelin IV. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the three-revert rule states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains consensus among editors. If unsuccessful then do not edit war even if you believe you are right. Post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Dpmuk (talk) 00:33, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll let you have that latest revert as you can't possible have seen the warning above. Please also see WP:A, specifically the bit that states "Any reader should be able to verify that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source." which your "source" statement does not.  Also see WP:CITE to how to cite properly.  Further please discuss and get agreement on the article's talk page before re-adding even with a good source. Dpmuk (talk) 00:37, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for violation of the three-revert rule on Led Zeppelin IV - five reverts in the last 7 hours. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Black Kite (t) (c) 00:46, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Double (basketball)
I just notice you add a near miss section for NCAA triple-doubles. Even if it is true, it still needs a source. Also I don't think a missed triple-double is particularly notable since it is more easily archived than says quadruple-double.— Chris! c / t 19:59, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I hide the section for now. I still think this is too trivial to include. Please discuss here if you disagree.— Chris! c / t 20:22, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * While I'm here, I agree with Chris. There has to be thousands of times players nearly missed a triple double. Quadzilla99 (talk) 00:15, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

There's probably only a handful who have had 9 in a third category, but that's fine.Hoops gza (talk) 20:18, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

WP:ALSO
Per the above link, pages which are linked in the article don't go in the see also section. Also only links things once; in Hakeem Olajuwon, you linked "list of players with most blocks" or whatever eight times in two close successive date fields and you or someone else also put it in the see also section. Quadzilla99 (talk) 00:08, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

November 2010
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on The Boat That Rocked.

I have started discussion on the topic at Talk:The Boat That Rocked. Please discuss the issue there before continuing to revert, and remember that you do not own the content. --IllaZilla (talk) 17:39, 11 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi Hoops gza. I see you were just blocked for violating the three revert rule in another article, so you are well aware of it. IllaZilla has more than once politely asked for you to cite Wikipedia policy on the article's talk page to justify the inclusion of the lengthy album cover list. Something you have yet to do. I understand his/her reticence to report you to the admins, which could well have been done already, but I bear no such compunction. Wwwhatsup (talk) 09:17, 14 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm not involved in this particular article but I feel it's worth pointing out to you that edit warring while not technically breaking the 3RR rule is still frowned upon and still likely to lead to a block. You waited a couple of days before the fourth revert in this case but many people would see this as an attempt to game the system and still block you for edit warring. Dpmuk (talk) 09:52, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Garnett
Could you please explain this edit? Garnett no longer holds those records. I don't think we need to list them there. Zagal e jo^^^ 01:48, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Pretty simple, he held the record at one time, which is why it's listed. I've listed when the record is broken, so I don't see how it is a problem.Hoops gza (talk) 02:37, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * To me, "Records" means records he still holds. If Kevin Love breaks the record again, will you still mention Garnett's rebounding achievement? What if a dozen people eventually break Garnett's record? Zagal e jo^^^ 02:45, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Dashes
I remember I was going to ask you a question about how to insert the correct length of a dash in a list. For example, if you go to look at Kareem's seasons for both the Bucks and Lakers...note the length of the dash between 1969-70 and the length between 1969-70 and 1974-75. I don't know how to insert the longer ones of the latter form on the other pages that I edit. Does this make sense?

Thank you again for the advice...and I usually always do sign my posts...I don't know why it slipped my mind this time...my bad. Coulraphobic123 (talk)

List of National Basketball Association players with most points in a game
Why would anyone want to sort field goals attempted in that list when it is better to sort by field goals percentage? Please explain because I think you are reverting for the sake of reverting, not for the improvement of the list.— Chris! c / t 20:06, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * But what is the benefit of sorting field goals made and attempted? I argue that sorting them is not as important because they can't show how good a player shoot. I don't understand. Please explain and maybe I can be convinced. Also can you reply here so we can have unfragmented conversation?— Chris! c / t 20:17, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

The benefits include being able to see who took the most and fewest shots, see who scored the largest percentage of their points from the field, and from the line, respectively, etc. The benefits are mandy. There's no reason why we cannot include both a) and b) that I mentioned on your page.Hoops gza (talk) 20:21, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, fine. I don't have the energy to argue anymore. To install my edit easily, I will have to revert. After that please don't revert back because I will be editing to make the columns sortable again, ok.— Chris! c / t 20:25, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

OK.Hoops gza (talk) 20:29, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

List names
My thinking is that less specificity in the title is better, and that the cutoff can be placed in the article lede (i.e., I support the change you made to move the article names to the current version). But it would be best to discuss this first on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Basketball Association and gain general consensus for these types of changes. Submit your argument in favor of returning to the numbered based titles, and see what happens. &mdash; Myasuda (talk) 04:02, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Locking certain sections of pages
I don't believe that article locks can be performed except through admin action (and only as a way to control content disputes or vandalism). You might consult an knowledgeable admin for confirmation, though. &mdash; Myasuda (talk) 14:12, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

List of National Basketball Association top individual scoring season averages
Do you honestly want to go down this route again? We can go about reinforcing the ban that was imposed upon you, or we can permit you to operate as a rehabilitated user in spite of your past transgressions. If you persist in edit warring, I'll contact an admin to reinforce the ban. Or, you can simply take the discussion to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Basketball Association and have the content dispute settled there. It's up to you. &mdash; Myasuda (talk) 15:42, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Wes Unseld.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Wes Unseld.jpg. I noticed that 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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 19:06, 16 January 2011 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 19:06, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

RE: List improvement
Hey! I agree with you for using the games played for the steals/blocks/turnovers pages for when the stats were officially recorded. As for the name disambiguation, I'll leave it alone for now but there was a thread about it on the NBA WikiProject page dealing with nicknames and it the general consensus was to go with the WP:COMMONNAME format. I don't know if you're familiar with it but I'll have you check it out and get back to me. Coulraphobic123 (talk) 15:27, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Yup, I'll go through and make sure the applicable number of games played for those stats are updated. Did you check out the thread on the wikiproject page about nicknames? What do you say to reverting the names back to the WP:COMMONAME format we had? Coulraphobic123 (talk) 22:50, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Lebron James as point guard
Regarding your edit in LeBron James, can you elaborate on your comment "Needs a serious rewrite" so that the sourced material can be reincorporated. Thanks. Bagumba (talk) 12:30, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Sourcing
I don't think I need to tell you this since you have been here for a long time, but your editing suggests otherwise. You cannot just use a random website as source when its reliability is questionable. And please don't add info to articles without a source.— Chris! c / t 23:12, 19 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, the way you presented the reference made it seems like a random website from a google search. Also the article looks like a random email. I have to browse the website until I found out that it is the official website of Iceland Football Federation (KKI) and the email looks like to be a newsletter sent from NBA.com to KKI. Therefore, I believe it could be identified as a reliable source. But if you could find a better source, you should add them to the article. I have no luck in finding any other source for this. Cheers! — MT (talk) 07:38, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * To Hoops gza: You said you could find more source. If you do, then add them to the article. I still doubt the reliability of that source as Iceland isn't a big basketball country.— Chris! c / t 19:46, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

En dash vs. em dash

Career Games Played
I had a few questions regarding this list of players who have played 1,000+ career games. I figured since you were the last person to make edits on it, I'd ask you the questions. Here they are (at least the ones that are on my mind) with my opinion under each: These are all I can think of at the moment. Hope to hear back from you soon! Coulraphobic123 (talk) 04:12, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you think we should update each active players' games played after each game they play (instead of waiting until the end of the regular season as is noted in the intro paragraph)?
 * I think that the active players' games played should be updated continuously when they've played another game. This is because since on other stats pages, in order to calculate statistical averages, the most up-to-date number of games played is listed.  Example, on the assists and steals leaders pages, as of the date of writing this (January 23, 2011), the number of career games played by Jason Kidd is 1,230, whereas on the career games played list, it remains at 1,187.  I think these should be updated regularly.
 * Do you think like on the other stats pages, we should add the green highlight indicating players who are not yet eligible for hall of fame induction?
 * This one I have sort of a so-so attitude towards. On the other career stats pages that I routinely edit, I added the green color scheme denoting players who are ineligible for Hall of Fame induction because if you look at white background cells of inactive players (like Reggie Miller or, now, Allen Iverson), I think the reader of the list would wonder why/how they aren't in the Hall of Fame yet.  Granted, there's a footnote explaining rules for eligibility, but if the reader doesn't see the footnote, they could scroll up and see quicker what the green background is for.  With consistency in mind, I don't think it would hurt to add the green background to the career games list.
 * For the international players, how do you feel about having the indicating nationality or country of origin listed before them? Is it necessary?
 * Being a geographer, I actually like the idea of indicating the origin of international players. The current setup is players who were born in another country, but did not represent that country in international tournament is preceded by ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code...while those who represented another country in international play is preceded by that nation's flag.  Personally, I think the aforementioned ISO codes don't look nice...at first I thought they were glitches where flags were supposed to be.  I think the usage of flags looks cool, but I also don't think, (for example), Steve Nash should have South Africa's flag neglected since that is where he was born even though he didn't play for them internationally.  If there's an idea you have to identify country or origin or nationality, then let's discuss and maybe apply to all other stats pages too (?)

using user subpages
When you will be making multiple small changes to the same article every few minutes, an option to consider is to create your own user subpages for drafts, and then copying it over to the main article when you are satisfied. It cuts down on the number of edits the public sees in an article's history. Let me know if you have further questions. Bagumba (talk) 07:07, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of List of career achievements by Kevin Garnett


A tag has been placed on List of career achievements by Kevin Garnett requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. OSbornarfcontribs. 22:49, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at List of career achievements by Kevin Garnett
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from List of career achievements by Kevin Garnett, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 22:50, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with List of career achievements by Kevin Garnett. Please use the template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 22:51, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Adolf Hitler. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively. In particular, the three-revert rule states that: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Orange Marlin  Talk• Contributions 01:55, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Ernst Zierke.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Ernst Zierke.jpg. I noticed that 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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 02:00, 9 April 2011 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Yellow Submarine template
I notice you deleted the changes I made a while ago on the Yellow Submarine album template, and some related articles; I’ve replied here. Swanny18 (talk) 21:42, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

PS Also here, here, here, and here. Swanny18 (talk) 22:31, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

PPS When you added the project box to the talk pages you omitted the closing -->, which cacked the page for anyone else using it (viz). I fixed the pages I wrote on, but if you’ve done that anywhere else I would suggest you go back there and fix them. Swanny18 (talk) 21:47, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Uprising fist.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Uprising fist.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

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 File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 00:58, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Articles for creation/Redirects
Hi, just letting you know I declined several requests you made at Articles for creation/Redirects. AfC/redirects is really limited to creating new redirects, not dealing with potentially controversial proposals for redirects. I would urge you to propose the changes at Talk:Bełżec and Talk:Chełmno respectively. If no one objects, you can probably be WP:BOLD and make the changes yourself. If you need help with the technical details let me know, and I can try to explain anything you need help with, but your account should be capable of making the changes.

Yellow submarine
A belated reply: I meant this   was missing, which effectively buggered the page up. I've replied on the template pages here and here, BTW. But I can let these ones go. Swanny18 (talk) 21:00, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * PS I notice you edit a lot on Holocaust articles; are you another member of the Third Reich fan club? Or the exact opposite? Swanny18 (talk) 21:02, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * PPS I also notice you’ve been getting a lot of stick about not adding edit summaries. They are important for people visiting the history page (and people patrolling the recent aditions/edits, or checking the watchlists) it also lets them know it isn’t vandalism. A few stock phrases; "add/correct/change detail", "add/fix link", "fix spelling" etc are all you need for most edits. For something more complex, an explanation helps others to understand, without reverting it out of hand as an unexplained change. (Just a bit of friendly advice..) Swanny18 (talk) 21:06, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

I think we are OK on this, now (last comments here). Thanks for replying to the PS, BTW; I'm never sure who I'm dealing with, when it comes to that subject. I suppose I tend towards "never forget" myself. Regards, Swanny18 (talk) 18:07, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Removing tags from images
Hello. Your recent edit removed a file deletion tag from File:Wirth, Christian.jpg, File:Zierke, Ernst.jpg, and File:Hermann Julius Hoefle.jpg. When removing deletion tags, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Julius Streicher
Hoops: I have been debating whether Julius Streicher should be added to the infamous list of: List of major perpetrators of the Holocaust. He would be far down the list if added. His influence was mainly as founder and publisher of Der Stürmer newspaper, which became a central element of Nazi anti-Semitic propaganda. What do you think? Kierzek (talk) 14:58, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't think that he should be added just yet. Let's see how the list fills out.Hoops gza (talk) 07:24, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary&#32;for your edits. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page.

(Nazi) renames
I noticed your renames today and have started a discussion about them at WT:GER if you care to comment. Agathoclea (talk) 21:23, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Hoops, I would really encourage you to seek out a mentor or someone else on Wikipedia who can help you understand the policies a bit better. You are moving into somewhat hot water with these far reaching category creations and page moves without discussing them or obtaining consensus.  I also noticed on your talk page that you seem to be having difficulty understanding the copyright rules and uploading a lot of images with no source data.  You are doing nothing bad here on purpose, everyone understands that, there are just some policies we have to stick to.  I think to find a mentor you can start at WP:AN, someone there will probably be happy to help you.  Thanks for your understanding with this. -OberRanks (talk) 04:42, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I would also suggest a mentor who otherwise is not involved in German topics for a clearly neutral point of view. Agathoclea (talk) 07:01, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Bruno Tesch (chemist) Bruno Tesch was a German chemist who joined the Nazi party, slapping "NAZI" on article headings makes it look like a propaganda piece and not a "neutral" article. 7mike5000 (talk) 16:41, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Edit summaries / "Preview" button
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary&#32;for your edits.

Thank you.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history.

Documentation re: Georg Konrad Morgen
Important documentation is missing from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg_Konrad_Morgen for quotations and specific details in the description of the Poniatowa massacre. These details do not appear in the volume that cited in footnote 1. Please provide references for these quotations and incidents. User talk:Jdvelleman 08:53, 26 May 2011 (UTC).

Your Edits of the Articles I Created
I like them. Fine work. The names are on my personal page. I see you also did lot of work on Sobibor SS. Very nice.

If people bother you about photo copyrights for SS officers, Poland has declared all photographs taken on its territory prior to 1989 to be public domain. US Holocaust museum can not exercise copyright over items received anonymously in the mail. All official Nazi army photos are allied property and the law defaults to the country where the photos were taken. Physical possession of these photos only legally means that you are holding an original that is in the public domain.

Use a template like this when you upload photo (just make sure its from Poland):

(1) This photo was taken in Poland 65+ years ago and according to Polish law, all photos taken inside Polish territory during occupation by foreign powers prior to 1990 are considered public domain. (2) The use of this image falls under fair use for historical images since (a) It is a historically significant photo. (b) It is of much lower resolution than the original. (c) It is only being used for informational purposes. (d) It depicts a non-reproducible deceased historic figure with no free equivalent available.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Leon_Feldhendler.jpg <-- take a look at how this photo was uploaded and all the legal stuff and make sure you put it on yours.

 * I am not sure why he does not do this - It would help us all and help in people not reverting Hoops gza about 40 percent of the time - Your doing lots of work that people are simply reverting because that have no clue what your doing. Your making your self work harder!!Moxy (talk) 16:29, 29 May 2011 (UTC)


 * And since Hoops gza is a rather prolific editor, 40% of all the edits of this user having to be scrutinised and reverted by other editors amount to a whole lot of editor time wasted overall on all sides. In fact so much that it is beginning to fit the definition of disruptive editing. --Saddhiyama (talk) 17:45, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Possible Mentor
Everyone, please see my comments above about HG possibly needing a mentor. I am seeing a lot of things that are heading down a dangerous path. Specifically:
 * 1) Uploading images with incomplete, incorrect, or misleading copyright licenses
 * 2) Engaging in Page Move and Article Renames (sometimes of very significant and extensive articles) without discussion
 * 3) Creating categories or moving existing categories to new names without consensus or discussion
 * 4) Editing without the use of edit summaries
 * 5) Often engaging in POV edits or OR edits

I don't think HG is doing this on purpose, only that this editor needs help. I also hope HG doesnt take this posting the wrong way. Thanks. -OberRanks (talk) 18:58, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Trying to jump start some interest in this. Not an attack against you at all, please understand. -OberRanks (talk) 00:46, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
