Billy Hamilton
So you just want to ignore the fact that "pinch runner" is not a position and that he is listed as a CF on MLB.com?--Yankees10 22:28, 7 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Are you seriously just going to keep reverting without a response?--Yankees10 18:51, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Organized Baseball
Thanks for making me aware of the specific definition of "Organized Baseball" at Shoeless Joe Jackson. I didn't realize its usage there, but now understand the context. I suggest linking the term to the Wikipedia's redirect for it and capitalizing the term (such as is done in SABR and the Baseball Research Journal). This will help the average reader to understand the specialized use of the term in baseball circles, and to avoid confusion with its generalized usage in other areas, such as List of organized baseball leagues. In this particular instance, it will help the casual reader understand the seeming contradiction of Jackson's later involvement in other baseball leagues. — Cactus Writer (talk) 20:40, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Please see Template:Did you know nominations/Noodles Hahn, and the nominator's comment about. Looks to me like you uploaded the one at Commons and also created File:Noodles Hahn.jpg on Wikipedia. Would you be able to assist this DYK nom by changing the name to either one of those? It is the one at Commons that the nominator would like to use for DYK.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to The Breakfast Club, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 18:31, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at The Breakfast Club, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 21:47, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at The Breakfast Club, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Dan56 (talk) 23:53, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring, as you did at The Breakfast Club. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Toddst1 (talk) 01:43, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi, several people from the baseball wikiproject are getting together after Wizardman's sudden retirement to figure out a better way to organize the Wikiproject.

Well, thank you for the article Victuallers (talk) 16:03, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Libelous content
Why do you keep undoing the removal of this libelous content on Jeremy Jacobs' page? Referring to a living person as a "bully," "villainous," and "hated" is libel and in clear violation of the living person's biography regulations.

This content -- although sourced -- is extremely subjective and should be deleted permanently:

Jacobs was referred to as one of the "most militant hard-line" NHL owners responsible for the 2012–13 lockout.[17] Described as "villainous" and a "bully", he was reportedly hated by the players.[18] On the first day of the 2012–13 NHL season after the lockout ended, Jacobs blamed the Players' Association for the season's delay, saying of the union, "There was no expression of a desire to make a deal."[17]

Kyla Ross
Hello PM800, I've noticed that you constantly edit Kyla Ross article. I couldn't find a 2014 link that stated her at 163 cm. The reference provided for her height is in American measurements 5'4", but it's from 2013, and it's one of a few that has her listed at 163 cm. Others links have her at 160 cm and google and yahoo have her at 157 cm. I did find one link, which was dated 2013, that had her at 157 cm, but I don't think it's a reliable link. Anyways from what I've heard is that females stop growing at ages 14 to 15, and males from 18 to 20. I'm going to leave your edit, but note that you should leave a reference next time. Thank you for contributions to wikipedia. GoldenBoy25 (GoldenBoy25) 17:06, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Randi Lau
You're wrong about Randi Lau - she does have elite experience!

2015 World Artistic Gymnastics Championshps
So we've been going back and forth a while on this, and the reason I keep adding Brenna Dowell (USA), Chen Siyi (China), Kelly Simm (Great Britain), and Natsumi Sasada (Japan) back to their team rosters, despite contributing no scores, is because they are listed as members of their team. They are not alternate members and therefore should be listed. All were on the floor during competition except Dowell. Please understand my reasoning. This is not a vandalism edit. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.51.166.81 (talk) 23:28, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

Please do read what I have written here about my edits, as I believe they are valid! Precedence shows that these gymnasts should be listed! Teams are usually also linked back to the country, not the national team, but I don't really mind that as much. 108.51.166.81 (talk) 01:13, 16 November 2015 (UTC)


 * As a long time editor in the Project Gymnastics, I can confirm that the gymnasts should be added to the teams even if they did not contribute a valid score in Team Finals. -- ThiagoSimoes (talk) 00:27, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

Template Gymnastics
I see you have reverted the changes I've made to the template about Gymnastics. I would like to know why the revert took place. My idea was to aggregate other disciplines not recognized by the International Federation (such as Aesthetic group gymnastics and TeamGym to the template, since these sports are getting increasingly more popular and readers could be confused about not finding any links to them. -- ThiagoSimoes (talk) 00:28, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Never mind. For some reason I thought you had completely reverted the changes, but now I see you just made it easier to navigate. Thanks for the changes. It looks good as it is. -- ThiagoSimoes (talk) 01:11, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

Why did you revert my changes to the template this time? Did you not read the summary? Sports aerobics is not the current name of the sport. Besides, why did you remove the mentions to the World Cup Final and the Gymnasiade? I'm working on these articles and they should be ready by tomorrow. -- ThiagoSimoes (talk) 23:33, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

Simone Biles
Hello! It looks like we are both interested in improving the Simone Biles article. I hope we can work together constructively. Your "try to keep up" comment was not appreciated.

I created a section for 'Awards and honors' because some are related to more than strictly her performance as a gymnast and may take into account things like her being a role model. I think this is something that can be open for discussion. The section only had two items because I wanted to make sure each honor had a reliable source and was significant enough to warrant mention. I expect the section will have more items in the coming weeks and months. Knope7 (talk) 02:48, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
