baseball polls
Hi Swimmer, thanks for all your work in maintaining Clemson baseball pages! One quick note - the established practice on college baseball pages is to use the Collegiate Baseball poll as the default. This is to prevent editors from cherry picking which poll they want to use, leading to a mix across pages. There was discussion of switching to a different poll a few years ago, but it was never implemented. Happy to revisit, but it should be broadly implemented and not just on one or a handful of pages. Thanks! Billcasey905 (talk) 02:49, 30 January 2019 (UTC)


 * no problem. I think I looked at the 2017 Clemson Team and noticed that the Baseball America poll was being used so that's why I used that poll in 2018.  Should I go back and fix the 2017 poll?  I'll use College baseball in 2019. swimmer33 12:59, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

WP:Football talk on college soccer
There is currently a discussion going on in the WP:FOOTBALL talk page about the notability of college soccer tournaments. I feel like given your contributions to the game you might want to give your thoughts. Cobyan02069 (talk) 17:41, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

WNBA rosters
Hi. I wonder if you can weigh in on this proposal. Recent discussion started here. Thank you either way. -SusanLesch (talk) 20:42, 1 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for including me! I've commented on the proposal.  I appreciate any help I can get on the WNBA pages.  swimmer33 12:51, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

2019 NCAA Division I women's soccer rankings moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, 2019 NCAA Division I women's soccer rankings, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 07:46, 7 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Ok, I will submit the draft for review once the first rankings come out. It is a yearly page and I figured it was good to go ahead and make it ahead of the season. Swimmer33 (talk) 14:37, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

Update dates
When updating college soccer standings, please also change the effective date... GWFrog (talk) 13:46, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I assume the updated date means through games played on that date. So I usually make the date the day priors date if I'm updating in the morning.  Otherwise, it will say updated on 9/2 but won't include games played on 9/2.  So that's why I don't update the date sometimes. Swimmer33 (talk) 11:58, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!
