NBA draftees
Until the players have actually been signed to an NBA contract, we don't describe them as members of an NBA team per WP:CRYSTAL. All we can say is Player A was drafted by Team B.... Thanks. --Madchester (talk) 03:00, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Please Proofread
Hello I noticed that you made several edits to basketball players who were taken in the 2009 NBA Draft. Please try to proofread the intro after making your changes. In many of the edits you made their draft position was already included resulting in redundant info. For example :

''Dante Cunningham (born April 22, 1987) is an American professional basketball player who was drafted in the 2nd round (33rd overall) of the 2009 NBA Draft by the Portland Trailblazers of the National Basketball Association. Cunningham, a power forward, attended Villanova University in Pennsylvania. He was drafted in the second round of the 2009 NBA draft by the Portland Trail Blazers.''

It mentions his draft position twice, I noticed this on several edits. Try to remove at least one instance. Finally you might be interested in joining Wikipedia:WikiProject National Basketball Association, a group dedicated to improving NBA coverage. -- GateKeeper(X) @ 04:48, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Chalie boy
A tag has been placed on Chalie boy requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

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), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
