I, too, suspected a vandal, yet his profiles on NHL.com and the Leafs' website  list those figures. If I knew a way to add a cite to the infobox that didn't break it, I'd add it in. Echoedmyron (talk) 02:11, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
 * And for that matter, the edit you reverted by the same editor on P. K. Subban was also factually up to date, again, per NHL.com and the Canadiens' website. So I reverted that also. And you are going to want to revert the warnings you gave that editor, since their edits were actually fair and accurate, and not vandalism... Echoedmyron (talk) 02:20, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Done. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. We have had a spate of height-weight changers lately. A good majority of them are vandalism. Without references, it's hard to tell. Here's the way to do it. Look at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints page. There is a ref under Missionaries in the infobox. I have never done this myself, but my MO is, if I don't know, copy someone else's work. :D Regards, -- Man way  02:38, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I tried adding a ref but it broke the box, so I left it out. Funny on the LDS link you suggested - when you go into Edit, it has the box collapsed and you can't actually see the code. I'll dig up another infobox and figure it out. On a side note, while on these two pages the IP was editing accurately, the 3rd page they did, they did vandalize (500 lbs...) and another editor tagged that one. Just so happened that the ones you saw were legit edits. Don't know why they always target height and weight - Gretzky gets hit like that about once a month at least. Cheers.
