RE: gerry
I was thinking the same thing about the lead. Looking at other basketball players' articles, I don't think its necessary to mention his height in the lead, especially since its included in the infobox. And the part about being known for his tenacity, while I think should still be in the article, should not be in the lead...same with his birthday. Perhaps:


 * Gerry McNamara is a former guard for the Syracuse University men's basketball team, from 2002 to 2006. He currently plays in Euroleague and Greek league games for Panionios in Athens, Greece.

And then add all the info taken out of that (birthday, shooting&tenacity) into the early life (birthday) and then either College or College legacy (shooting/tenacity).

I'm not commanding that this is what should be done, its just my two cents. Let me know what you think. Darry2385 13:05, 24 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Looks good to me. Good work. Darry2385 18:22, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

No problem, reverting vandalism is like racing. Its just annoying that people feel the need to do it, I'd rather be building the web, not constantly cleaning it lol. --  Chil dzy  ¤  Ta lk  14:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello there, I have left my opinions regarding how to improve the article to GA status onto the talk page. Please go over it and acknowledge me when they're done. OhanaUnited   Talk page   23:05, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Awesome, I'm going to promote it to GA now.  OhanaUnited    Talk page   04:06, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I noticed Gerry McNamara has lots of potential. I also notice it has a Template:Syracuse Orange 2002-03 NCAA champions. I am not sure if collegiate championship templates would pass at WP:TFD. However, as it exists it should be in Category:Sports_champion_navigational_boxes. I am going to put it there. If you know of any other similar such templates please add them as well.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 16:44, 2 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I just moved some comments to the talk page. I see it is already a GA.  IMO, it is on the weaker end of the GA quality spectrum.  It has the bells and whistles (nav box, info box, image, etc.), but it has some work.  If you get a chance I would advise at least making the changes suggested on the WP:GA.  The article could easily fail a WP:GA/R as it is.  Try to lump some of the stubby paragraphs together.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 17:01, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I have a ton of pics of a lot of the cuse guys, but I got them all off of the AP photo wire, so I doubt they'd be eligible for inclusion on here. I'll ask around though, see if anyone I know took any back when he was here. Darry2385 20:39, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
