Response to Belfour
From what ive been told WDIV said he was going to sign today, not that he had already signed. --68.248.15.198 06:48, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks again for the heads up
I replied to you with some other thoughts on my own talk page, but thought I'd leave a thank-you here anyway. Doogie2K 03:00, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks from me for another heads-up
Thanks for letting me know what was going on with the box scores on the 2006 Stanley Cup Playoffs page. I didn't mean to take a night off -- I mean, I have the games on TV anyway -- but I *am* a graduate student and it is near the end of the semester and I do need to actually use the computer for classwork instead of Wikipedia every once in a while. :) -- Skudrafan1 06:03, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for your comments on my addition of the #1 picks. And thanks for splitting the Red Wings into two columns...I just didn't know how to do it myself, so I'll follow your lead. One column is fine for the newer teams, but once you get into the Original Six and 1967 expansion, it gets out of hand. I thought about adding a link to the draft page, but I'd just have to change it to each team's individual pick in a couple of weeks anyway.

Yeah, that birthplace fiasco is a good one. I have eight seasons' worth of individual team media guides (which get to be incredibly heavy), and each and every one of them has players' birthplaces as the country that exists today. They were about 50/50 on Wikipedia when I started changing the rest to make them uniform. And I love the fact that whoever reverted my work changed all the Czech Republics and Slovakias to Czechoslovakia, but didn't change Russia back to USSR.

Thanks again...it's good to get a compliment instead of hearing what I did wrong.SportsEditor 21:51, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Question
Hi...I have a question for you when you have a moment. Have you found in editing Wiki hockey pages that the same couple of people revert or delete your edits because they don't comply with the overall style as agreed upon at WP:HOCKEY? I was wondering if it's just me. I've tried to post things that bolster the team articles, only to have the usual suspects revert them because they're against what the "concensus" thinks. If you have any thoughts on the matter, I'd really appreciate hearing them. Thanks in advance...SportsEditor 01:18, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Feedback
Thanks for getting back to me...I appreciate it. And thanks for including that link...it just proves to me that CC and RG are indeed the ringleaders and self-proclaimed WikiPolice. I'm sure you've noticed how they talk down to people with legitimate questions.

My first exposure to them was during the birthplace fiasco. I even brought up the fact that in a few drafts from now, some European players will actually have been born in Russia, as opposed to USSR, so both Russia and USSR will be listed on the same team pages. I was quickly shot down by...guess who. I don't know if you caught any of the draft, but I noticed how Russian players were announced as having been born in Russia (not USSR). Interesting...it appears the NHL is fine with that.

As for the latest thing, I did add a "notable" section with the Penguins that included prominent players and coaches from different decades...guys with team records, with high point totals, and some with unique accomplishments (Patrick Lalime went 14-0-2 to start his career and set an NHL record, and Ken Wregget won the longest playoff game in team history, 4 overtimes). In other words, there was rationale behind it and they weren't just personal favorites. I'd be more than willing to monitor those types of sections myself. Instead, it was "delete first and ask questions later" from...guess who.

The other one was my addition in the Hall of Fame section for "other Hall of Famers associated with the Penguins." When I found out that Tim Horton once played for the Pens, I was very surprised. I imagined that other people might be, too. I knew about the "significant contributions" rule, so I created another category for minimal contributions. RG didn't like that. He also deleted Leo Boivin (who played two seasons with the Pens) but left Andy Bathgate (who also played two seasons) on the list). I asked him why he deleted one and not the other, but he just dodged the question and shifted blame back on me.

It's probably only a matter of time before my draft and awards & trophies sections bite the dust, since they aren't included in the master guidelines. You're right...I guess we joined too late. I you want a good laugh, check out the discussion page on the Penguins page. I'm starting to feel like the Dino Ciccarelli of writing. Oh, well...there's too much going on out in the real world to be too concerned about this. Maybe those guys just don't have lives? Thanks again!SportsEditor 02:53, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Hasek page
Hello. I'm signing off right now. If the silliness continues, please report it on WP:AIV. He means well, but I can't think of any other way of stopping him. -- JamesTeterenko 04:42, 3 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've put him on the noticeboard for repeat NPOV violations, copyright violations and 3RR, seeing as we can't get any work done on the article. He really needs some time to read over policies. God, I hate 11-year-olds with computers.... --Wafulz 16:29, 3 August 2006 (UTC)


 * And he's now having a hissy fit and deleting all of my external links. Man, if only he'd actually read some of the links we gave him =/ --Wafulz 16:34, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Ha,ha,haaaa. Very funny. Yeah I know I can be a bother. I didn't have a hissy fit. Say, I wonder if I'm the youngest user on Wikipedia. Seems like everyone a university student of some kind. I'm only in grade 6. Hasek is the best 01:20, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:ChrisOsgood.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:ChrisOsgood.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Khatru2 08:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:USA_Hockey_Inline.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:USA_Hockey_Inline.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".
