J. J. McCarthy
Hello, as you can see in: MOS:MORELINKWORDS, it's okay to put more words inside a piped link to make it clear which page the link will take you to. As you're doing it, it appears like the link to College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS. So using, it's pretty clear which page is linked.

No other conferences have awards named after player. For example, the SEC doesn't have an award named Jackson–Walker Running Back of the Year, it's common sense, as you can see in: WP:COMMON

It's not necessary to use the  to indicate McCarthy's three championships, because isn't a broken link, as you can see in: WP:NOPIPE. This also applies to the Griese–Brees Quarterback of the Year, as you said yourself, we should keep the links simple, so by using, you are contradicting yourself, making a link longer than necessary and breaking that rule.

Lastly, I ain't part of anything that you cannot be too, if I told you that you could be banned it's because you're breaking rules, always try to follow them, you can find it on pages like: WP:MOS, WP:REDIRECT and some more.

Have a nice day =)

Hi there. If you're linking to Big Ten Quarterback of the Year, just encode it as Big Ten Quarterback of the Year, dont pipe it as Big Ten Quarterback of the Year, per MOS:NOTBROKEN. Keep up tbe Big Ten edits. —Bagumba (talk) 02:51, 26 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Okay thanks, I didnt know that was possible. Can any other Big Ten awards newly encode like that now, that previously couldn’t? Centurion Seraph (talk) 11:32, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
 * If the term looks like something that other pages would also want to link directly to or if it looks like a useful search term, just create a redirect if it doesn't already exist (How to make a redirect). —Bagumba (talk) 15:23, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

It's great that you involved the wider WP:NFL about the situation with McCarthy's lead. A note for the future is to be aware of WP:FORUMSHOP. It seems there was already ongoing discussion at McCarthy's talk page. It would have been better to point editors to discuss over there (also see WP:CANVASS), instead of duplicating some points and fragmenting the discussion. Regards. —Bagumba (talk) 23:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)


 * That was not what I was trying to do at all. Jweiss asked if we thought we should go to wikitalk in the middle to end of the discussion. I asked cbl to help when I brought up wikitalk, and he dismissed my comments. I tagged all the editors, its not fragmented. I dont understand how you think I am trying to inappropriately influence anything? Even when I try and do the right thing, I get accused to doing something intentionally wrong. I did not know you couldnt go from a local talk page with 4 people to WT, Im sorry. I dont understand how I would point people over there without posting anywhere else, like WT. Im not knowledgeable enough i guess, because thats all I wanted to do.Centurion Seraph (talk) 23:51, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it wasn't an accusation as much as it was an FYI to consider for the future. I don't think you were doing it to get an advantage, but other people might be more of a stickler for the letter of the law, esp. in a heated discussion. —Bagumba (talk) 00:00, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thank you. I will make a note not to in the future. Centurion Seraph (talk) 00:29, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
