With this edit, you put text in front of a source that didn't support the addition. Please make sure to put text after, preferably with its own proper source. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:43, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

Technically ...
Being DFA'd does not mean your tenure with the team has ended. You are off the 40 man roster. But one of the DFA options is that you are -- within 10 days -- returned to the roster. It is after your DFA option shows you not to be in the organization that it is proper to indicate in the time-span (year x to year y) something other than present at the end. Best. --Epeefleche (talk) 23:25, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Trades
When a player on the minor league page is traded, you can move the section (manually) to the new page. There's no reason to keep the person on the page for an organization they're not in anymore. You just delete it from the old page, put it on the new page, and change the redirect. Also, when a fully notable player is traded, you can remove the current sports transaction tag, and their old uniform number. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:06, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks yeah I didn't know how to move it or I would have done it my mistake I appreciate the help! Muboshgu (talk)  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 04:42, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

You just did this again with Yeison Asencio. The blurb should've been moved to its own page. I did it. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:11, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

DFA'd players
When updating the DFA'd guys can you try to keep the Major League Baseball (MLB) link somewhere in the intro? An example would be like what I did with Chris Heisey.--Yankees10 23:54, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Yup no problem thanks Yankees10  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 23:58, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Guys its kinda silly to change the wording when a player is DFAd... you really should wait till they either get outrighted or released. It's kindof a trivial change that doesnt actually mean anything. Spanneraol (talk) 00:03, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

You're still removing it for some reason.--Yankees10 00:50, 15 August 2015 (UTC)


 * You still insist on removing it for some reason. Why can you not just leave it there and just add "organization of Major League Baseball (MLB)"?--Yankees10 21:33, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

From now on I am going to put the Major League Baseball (MLB) in the top part of the article but not right after it just doesn't look right considering everyone on a minor league deal just has organization and the MLB is somewhere in the top is that fair Yankees10?  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 21:36, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Ok, give an example because i'm kind of confused.--Yankees10 21:39, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 check out Onelki Garcia.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 21:41, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Yeah that works.--Yankees10 21:44, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Or it could be like Vic Black's "He made his Major League Baseball (MLB) debut with the Pittsburgh Pirates"--Yankees10 21:46, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 yeah man I saw you do that so I put that in there for people who didn't have anything after like Danny Muno.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 21:47, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I just changed the wording a little bit and unklinked the Mets to avoid overlinking.--Yankees10 21:53, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Only a few months later and yet again you remove Major League Baseball (MLB). I'm glad we even bothered with this conversation before.--Yankees10 22:35, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 The way you are using it doesn't make sense Simon Castro isn't playing for the Colorado Rockies he is in the organization the Major League Baseball (MLB) doesn't seem necessary you are making a huge deal over nothing.


 * It's the fact of the matter that it takes little effort to incorporate it into the intro and yet you refuse to for some reason and keep removing it. Why can't you do what we discussed above?--Yankees10 01:25, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 Because I forgot we even had that conversation.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 01:29, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
 * How can you forget? I've bothered you numerous times about this.--Yankees10 01:31, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 I understand what you mean I feel I am becoming a better editor not making changes till made official and I feel I am becoming a more respected editor like you.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 01:41, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 I usually don't read the messages anyone sends me on here because usually it is complaining I hop in conversations that I deem as important.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 01:34, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Well you should read all of them. That "complaining" is usually someone trying to help you became a better editor.--Yankees10 01:38, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

NFL infoboxes
You're not using the * in NFL infoboxes right. It only goes next to the team if the player didn't appear in a game. Brian Tyms and Frank Alexander appeared in games with the teams they were just released from.--Yankees10 00:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

NFL updates
Thanks for updating the NFL cuts. There's gonna be a bunch over the next few days and your edits are going to be very helpful. Like I said last year though don't forget to add the "*Offseason and/or practice squad member only" when you add the *. Thanks.--Yankees10 19:31, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually it looks like all you need to do now is add |pastteamsnote = yes under the teams.--Yankees10 19:33, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Also don't forget to remove the "Active" from the roster status in the infobox and the roster navbox at the bottom.--Yankees10 20:03, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Hidden text message re non-free-image photos
Ryan, please do not remove the following hidden text message from transclusions of Template:Infobox NFL player:    This hidden text message is supposed to be included in every instance of an infobox for a still-living current or former player where the image field is not already linked to a free-image photograph. This is intended to reduce the uploading and use of non-free-image photos -- i.e., copyright violations -- in our bio articles for NFL players. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 06:32, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Final cuts
Yup thats final cuts for you. So many transactions. Your edits are very appreciated.--Yankees10 06:15, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Make sure you don't put the * if the player has appeared in games with that team.--Yankees10 21:39, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Zurlon Tipton appeared in games.--Yankees10 00:38, 16 September 2015 (UTC)


 * As did Cyril Richardson. Why do I have to keep asking you not to add the * if the player appeared in games with that team? I'm very appreciative of all the work you do here but it's getting annoying that I have to keep coming here to remind you not to do this.--Yankees10 21:45, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Template:Infobox NFL player
Hey, KR -- FYI, this infobox does not require anyone to add "px" to the "image_size" parameter in order to alter the default size infobox photos. In fact, most infoboxes no longer require the added "px" coding for photo-sizing, but the thumb template still does. In the case of the NFL player box, most of us have been deleting the "px" coding along with the other deprecated template parameters that are no longer in use. I thought you should know.

What was the purpose of requesting for this to be un-deleted? There's zero notability with him right now.--Yankees10 22:42, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Yankees10 I just don't see a purpose for removing articles of someone on here if they play pro ball I feel they should have a page.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 22:56, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

NPB
We don't put MLB next to every MLB team so there's no reason to have NPB next to every NPB team. There's no consistency or logic. These infoboxes aren't just for MLB players.--Yankees10 19:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Hey Kingryan227, just a heads up that the KBO is the Korea Baseball Organization, and not the Korean Baseball Organization. "Korean" would make more sense, but they don't use an "n". Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 16:03, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

A request
When entering a players data like you did for Brandon Boggs. Please check to make sure that the player is retired. You didn't do that and he is retired. Going forward please do this. Aggiefan47 (talk) 16:26, 04 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I havent entered any recent information on Johnson and i dont know if he is or isnt retired. Spanneraol (talk) 04:24, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Updates
You didn't update the free agents intros with the teams they played. Just looking at Todd Cunningham's for an example you didn't didn't add the Angels to the "He previously played for the" part. You did this with pretty much ever player. It would be nice if went back and finished the update.--Yankees10 00:44, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
 * And you're still not doing this part.--Yankees10 22:18, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Dustin Molleken
You're not new. You've been here a while. So why are you adding unsourced information all over the place? You have to source your edits when you make them, or they can and should be removed (especially in BLP cases). Not being able to find a reliable source isn't an excuse for adding info without a source (I've looked, can't find anything at the moment for Molleken, Kensing, and Cuevas). That's why I'm reverting this again. Please stop adding unsourced content. Trut-h-urts man (T • C) 21:02, 19 November 2016 (UTC)

Tyler Naquin change of number?
If a player is changing number in the off-season, you really need to provide some reliable sources to support the claim. —C.Fred (talk) 18:50, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Indians' roster numbers
Please don't change the roster numbers for Gonzalez, Morimando, Clevinger, Naquin, and Merritt again. The Indians.com numbers are wrong; those are their spring training numbers from last season. The correct numbers can be found at Indians Press Box.com. As a general rule, MLB players, with rare exceptions, are NOT allowed to have their numbers changed once they have made their MLB debuts, unless they were assigned numbers in the 60s or 70s.

MLB change of uniform number rule
"Any big leaguer who wants to change uniform numbers without switching teams better give eight months’ notice unless he’s willing to buy warehouses full of his overstocked jerseys. . . . Players must tell the commissioner’s office by July 31 of the preceding year if they want a new jersey. That is, unless ‘the player (or someone on his behalf) purchases the existing finished goods inventory of apparel containing the player’s jersey number.’ As in, every replica jersey, jacket, T-shirt, mug and anything else with a number that’s anywhere in stock." (see here: http://www.uni-watch.com/2011/12/14/new-mlb-labor-deal-includes-new-uni-rule/) (I assume, for example, that Encarnación paid this cost for Gomes to take his no. 10 for the 2017 season.)

The only exception I have found is in the case of a rookie who barely played in the majors the previous season who is then given a new number in spring training when a veteran non-roster invitee who wants his number is added to the roster. For example, Morimando (who only has 2 days of service time) could be given a new number, but Naquin, Gonzalez, Merritt, and Clevinger have enough service time to fit the description listed above.

Subsections
You don't think this many sections for such a short article isn't over the top? I don't think there's any policy rule about this, but one-sentence sections are unnecessarily small, no? – Muboshgu (talk) 03:06, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Muboshgu It makes the article look a lot nicer compared to a bunch of sloppy paragraphs and makes it easier to navigate to certain points in a players career. If you believe the sections are too small feel free to add some more info into those sections.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 15:09, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I completely disagree. I think it makes it look choppier, and has less flow. Some of these guys, like Ramón Cabrera (baseball), don't have much more to add. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:10, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Following up, I found this in MOS:LAYOUT: "Very short or very long sections and subsections in an article look cluttered and inhibit the flow of the prose. Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading." – Muboshgu (talk) 17:36, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

Muboshgu (talk) I appreciate the follow up and extra little research I don't know though it's just an opinion I feel it looks better to have the subsections in there. It divides into categories for easier access if I am looking for something particular I don't have to read through a whole bunch of stuff that's irrelevant at the time.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 17:43, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

REPEATLINK
MOS:REPEATLINK says Generally, a link should appear only once in an article, but if helpful for readers, a link may be repeated in infoboxes, tables, image captions, footnotes, hatnotes, and at the first occurrence after the lead. Linking second instances of the same team name within the infobox is excessive. UW Dawgs (talk) 17:44, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

Infoboxes
You're forgetting to put the "finalleague=MLB" parameter.--Yankees10 22:52, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

My fault Yankees10, Isn't that just in case they played in another league? I was going to go back and do that for Leyson Septimo.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 23:10, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

World Series
An agreement at WP:Baseball from awhile ago. I 'm not sure exactly when it was, but it was agreed that only the players that were on the 25 man roster got "World Series champion" in the infobox.--Yankees10 23:51, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

"Currently"
Thank you for making edits like this one to update player articles, but please don't use the word "currently". Per MOS:CURRENTLY / WP:PRECISELANG, we need to use precise language that doesn't go out of date. And "is currently a free agent" means the same thing as "is a free agent", just with an unnecessary word. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:46, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

March 2019
Your recent editing history at Jonathan Sánchez shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:23, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

AAF player pages
Hi, I noticed you went through and changed many AAF player pages to say these players have been released from their contracts. This is simply untrue, as the AAF released a statement saying players can exercise an escape clause in their contracts to sign with NFL players — meaning they're still under contract with the AAF until they exercise these clauses. I am going to revert your changes, but we certainly appreciate your enthusiasm in making them in the first place. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Eagles  24/7  (C) 17:34, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

I actually do have a comment Eagles  24/7 ''' (C) because when they folded they aren't going to be playing the players the remainder of their contracts so their contracts are all voided.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 18:18, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * The league has not folded, it has "suspended football operations" which is different than "ceasing football operations". According to the official league statement, players have the ability to opt-out of their contracts if they sign with an NFL team, which means their contracts with the AAF are still valid. Eagles  24/7  (C) 18:22, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

But I mean other players are marked as free agents like Johnny Manziel as an example and the most notable people. These players aren't getting paid for the rest of their contracts for the season though Eagles  24/7  Kingryan227  ( Decrees  •  Acts ) 19:08, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing out the Manziel article, I've gone ahead and fixed that too. The season has ended, that's why they aren't getting paid for the rest of it, but they're still under contract through 2021 unless and until the league folds or they sign with an NFL team.

Adding Teams & Mexican League Rosters
Hi Kingryan,

Good to see you back online editing again. Just wanted to give you a couple of pointers - some requests that I had as you recently made some edits that I've had to undo. Please make sure of the following:

- For Korean League (KBO) & Japanese League (NPB) players - in the player biography Infobox, please do not add the new team they have signed with until they have officially debuted with that team. League play has not started yet, so you should not be doing this. A player could theoretically sign with the team in the offseason, and then get injured in spring training and be released - thus never officially playing with that team. The rule is, until they have debuted in a regular season game, the new team should not be added.

- For Mexican League (LMB) edits: I do not know where you are getting your roster information from, but rosters have not been finalized as Spring Training (or Pre-Season) hasn't even started yet. So please stop making premature edits on players that are "not appearing on rosters" - as those rosters are outdated and will be finalized at the end of Spring Training and once the start of the Regular Season begins.

Appreciate the work, and I know you are trying to help where you can, but please make sure you are making worthwhile contributions and not causing more work for the rest of us.

Thanks!

Template:Kansas City Chiefs roster
This goes for all roster templates and player articles as well, but do not update templates and articles until team's make an official announcement of the transaction. This is a long-standing policy on here.-- Rockchalk 717 19:04, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I repeat. Do not add transactions unless they have been officially announced by the team or they have appeared on the transaction wire.-- Rockchalk 717 14:45, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I would check sources before reverting edits. Reverting without a valid reason is destructive editing  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 22:21, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I did check the Chiefs website for transactions and I always do. With the fact the edit was made yesterday I didn't expect to have to go back before the draft to find the transaction because it's pretty uncommon me or Jrooster49 miss a transaction. I also follow several Chiefs insiders on Twitter and didn't recall seeing them mention the transaction when they normally do post them. Also, update the count and date when you do a transaction if you're going to edit the templates.-- Rockchalk 717 03:39, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

FYI
You'll probably remove this too and quite frankly I don't care but I just feel like you should know this. Removing the warnings about your premature edits before official announcements for sports transactions from your talkpage doesn't erase their validity. Two more violations of this policy and you can and likely will be blocked. Keep that in mind before violating it again.-- Rockchalk 717 05:39, 21 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Not concerned.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 17:04, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

nfl free agents
i appreciate the work you have put in to many of the nfl off-season free agents, however there are just a few things i’d like to correct. first, in the lead there is no need to use the word “currently”. second, make sure to remove “active” from the status section in the roster nav box. This will make it a lot easier for everyone so we don’t need to go back and correct it. Thanks Bears247 (talk) 01:38, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Please do this site a favor and google the definition of "resigned" and then "re-signed". And when editing this site please remember this info you took the time to look up. Yankees10 00:02, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Thanks — But you're ALSO deleting the pre-infobox stuff too, accidentally.
Hello! Thanks for your help with editing the pages of the players who are being drafted into the NFL. However, when you're deleting the "college football" infobox template (which is helpful), you've been also accidentally deleting the other stuff that comes before the infobox too (like the "short description" line or the "use MDY" line, etc.) Can you please make sure you don't accidentally delete more than you intend to, like you've been accidentally doing?

Free agents
Hi Kingryan227. Just wanted to drop by and see if I understood this. Today I left Terrence Brooks as a free agent. Normally I would have changed him to former, no play in 2021 and 2022. But I read that he was released in August 2022 (less than 2 years). How was that? This way we won't trip over one another in the future. :) Thanks in advance. - Bringingthewood (talk) 21:11, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

hey Bringingthewood (talk) my rule of thumb that I tried to teach that bears dude because he used to just do one year of no activity and then would mark someone as former which people take a year off constantly so I don't get that lmao. I tend to do just around 2 years since last known transaction that meaning when a contract expired or a player was released etc. Like 1 year and 11ish months is probably the earliest same thing with baseball articles. The workout rule that dude made up all on his own they aren't notable enough to be included in articles so if they worked out and didn't sign that doesn't matter. For Terrence Brooks the way people have it set up is that he was on the roster in 2021 and played games and was there till the 2022 pre season and was cut but he was part of the pre season team in 2022. So even though he hasn't played a regular season game since 2021 his last transaction was being released during the 2022 pre season. I think the best rule for both baseball and football articles is right around two years since the last transaction being like a year and 11 or 10 months id say is fair but guys who were cut in the 2022 pre season is still another 6 months away from now. Plenty of players from baseball and football come back after taking a year off but usually after 2 they just fizzle out. Don't get me wrong players do come back after that but I'd say 95% of players who sit out two seasons don't come back. I don't think a year is enough time at all I've always felt two years was a fair time frame. The workout thing he made up on his own lol let me know your opinions but this same discussion has been had in baseball I'm kinda the one who ushered in the two year rule just because I think jumping the gun after one year is a bit ridiculous I think makes Wiki less credible being premature and someone signing then thereafter. Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 23:02, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Yankees10 if you have any imput or questions since we tend to bash heads on edits quite a bit on things like this feel free to chime in  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 23:10, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll be honest I'm not gonna read the long paragraph, but I will say I agree with you on the Malcom Brown revert. I didn't notice that he had been cut just prior to last season and not 2021.-- Yankees10 23:23, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Yankees10 was also wondering where to start a discussion regarding the CPBL in the info box. Because I believe it has the same rights as the KBO and NPB to be in the info box. Don't get me wrong the league isn't as good as those two but the CPBL is a major league not classified as an independent, seasonal or minor league.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 23:56, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I mean you can start a discussion at WP:Baseball. I've just removed it because it's not been included in the WikiProject Baseball/Player style advice. I personally don't know if it's on par with those leagues or just a Mexican League type. I know that in the past players were not presumed notable for articles in the CPBL like they were in NPB or KBO-- Yankees10 00:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Yankees10 it is definitely a step down from the KBO and especially the NPB but technically it is a major league. The Mexican league is considered a minor league baseball still, atlantic independents, australian a winter league so I know the talent is definitely not the best in the CPBL but I think fits the criteria to be in the info box. So I will start a discussion see what other people have to say if they rule in favor of it not then I won't add it then we won't clash on those edits.  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 00:44, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * It looks like the bottom line for me is actually reading the ending of an article. You did bring that to my attention with your reverts. Just a week or two ago I contacted @Yankees10 asking his input and it looked like 2 years was the way forward. Truth be told when I saw I was reverted, I thought Mr. Bear was back in a different form, lol. From now on I'll read and not use just the infobox. I'm hoping some people will update something and not leave the infobox at 2019 and the article stating so and so was signed in September 2019. That sucks. Well, it's looking good going forward .. and when in doubt just revert what I did. @@ - Bringingthewood (talk) 01:51, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The reason they have it where if someone plays in 2021 but gets cut in the pre season of 2022 it only shows 21 is because typically if someone is in the pre season they put a * next to the year but cant do that if they played in the regular season then got cut in the pre season it's weird lmao yeah just check the article for last transaction im not weird about workouts like Bears was I just care about last known contract transaction lmao so just check the dates if its like a year and 11 or 10 months can just go with it cause the odds of them signing in that month or two are not the most likely but anything other than that I would just wait. If we get everyone on the same page of 2 years from last transaction for all sports I think everything will be a lot smoother lmao  Kingryan227  ( Decrees •  Acts ) 02:18, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Can't argue with that. Sounds good to me, especially your last sentence. I appreciate the feedback! Regards, - Bringingthewood (talk) 02:27, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Kingryan227. I noticed you undid a few edits I did recently on Aristides Aquino & Patrick Weigel’s pages. I used some Mexican League teams social media as my source, how would I put that in as a source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.215.240.135 (talk) 14:15, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
