Your suggestion on Water polo
Someone might want to split this article into a few different articles to make it more concise. For instance you could move the main sections of the History, Defense strategy, and Offense strategy into a newly created article such as History of Water Polo and leave just a small blurb about the History and Strategy under the main article. That would make it easier to navigate and read. Outside Center 22:33, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Good idea, why don't you make a new History of water polo article, and move Section 8 (History) and 9 (Leading water polo teams) into it. Once you create the new article, leave a link, ie: to it at the top of section 2 (Overview), similar to the link to the Glossary of Water Polo. --Ryanjo 22:58, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the strategy sections belong in the main article, however. --Ryanjo 23:02, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello. First off I'd like to ask if you'd review the main water polo article and the new History of water polo article to make sure everything is in line. Also, I wasn't suggesting purging the entire sections on Strategy under water only making it substancially shorter, sort of like what happened with the history. Thanks for your time and effort Outside Center 23:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * History of water polo looks like a good start. I added a brief lead section similar to the Origins of baseball, and since the whole article is history, I took out the "History" section and elevated the subsections to sections. I also added categories and a "Notes" section so the "in-line" references are displayed, and a "See also" to refer back to Water polo. I put the "Leading water polo teams" templates into the history articles, since most are team records. Someone may eventually add details on the individual teams.
 * As far as the strategy section, I wouldn't expect such detail in a history article, unless referring to trends in team play, or styles of play developing, etc. I would suggest making another post about moving or reducing the strategy sections on the Talk:Water polo page before making a big edit of that type. Future editors may simply expand the defense and offense strategy sections again, not realizing the new location, since IMHO, it's not a "natural" for a history article.

USA Sevens
It looks fine to me, I think. Thanks for the heads-up. Stilgar135 16:57, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Great job with both articles! I hope to expand on your work on the USA Sevens article and eventually create seperate articles for each year's competition where we can have game results, statistics, etc. (see 2006 Six Nations Championship for what might be a good format).  I did a bit of editing in adding references, a table for the results, some link formatting, etc. and I'll work on it some more in the near future.  Again, excellent work!

Proposal for rugby super league
Leave your opinion on this matter if you are interested. It is basically about the term rugby super league being used as a disambiguation for all rugby competitions by that or a similar name. --Ehinger222 12:43, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
