Kahlil Felder
Any interest in creating his article? As of March 6, he leads Division I in assists per game and would appear on Template:NCAA Division I men's basketball assists champion if he keeps his lead. I know you're an Oakland guy so I figured I'd lob it your way if you have any interest. Jrcla2 (talk) 22:06, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm interested in doing it. Oakland's season ended last night. Felder had 11 assists, so he's currently second. If Jalan West has 5 or fewer assists tonight, then Felder will take over the top spot. — X96lee15 (talk) 12:14, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Color graphics for Infobox college football player
X96lee15, here's a taste of how the revamped CFB player infobox is going: Template:Infobox college football player/testcases. What do you think of the colors, graphics, and layout and design -- and the "college varsity stripe" graphics in particular? Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:36, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/University at Buffalo Rugby Football Club
X96, I've only recently become aware of these college rugby club team articles, and I only found this Articles for deletion/University at Buffalo Rugby Football Club after it was already closed. This is an extremely problematic "keep" closing that relied upon a WikiProject's own notability "guideline" for teams instead of WP:ORG and WP:GNG as all other sports teams -- professional, college and amateur -- are required to do. If you nominate another college rugby club for AfD, please ping me. It's time that these articles are judged by the same notability standard as all other sports teams.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Many Bengali students go to Davison and DIA, so I am adding the Bengali and adding them to Bengali Wikipedia articles WhisperToMe (talk) 06:29, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * One of your pictures is used in the Bengali article for school: bn:বিদ্যালয় - I put it there since DPS went out of its way to make a brochure in Bengali (meaning many parents are Bengali), so it would be relevant to the Bengali community abroad and in Bangladesh. I added sourced info about Davison, along with your picture, to Detroit_Public_Schools. WhisperToMe (talk) 06:50, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Dumb question
Hey, X96. Here's a question for you: why is Template:Infobox NCAA football school not named Template:Infobox NCAA football team? Would you have any objection to moving it to the more logical template name? If not, I will make the move, and have someone update the name in all of the articles using the template with a bot run. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 17:42, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I have no objection to the move. — X96lee15 (talk) 23:03, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Could you please be more careful...
In an an edit to the article on Dave Boswell (baseball) you removed the disambiguation header. You didn't explain why you removed it, so I restored it.

If you think there is a good reason to temove the disambiguation, could you please offer it on Talk:Dave Boswell (baseball)? Geo Swan (talk) 07:09, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I was very careful and removed the hatnote on purpose. See WP:NAMB. A hatnote is not needed when the article title is not ambiguous. There are other Dave Boswells, but none that play baseball so the hatnote is extra information that is not needed according to Wikipedia guidelines. It's probably a good idea to remove it again. — X96lee15 (talk) 12:25, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Template:Western Michigan Broncos football navbox
Per your reversion of my edit on Template:Western Michigan Broncos football navbox, it's not merely the case that most other navboxes of this sort use ampersands in group headings such as "Bowls & rivalries and "Culture & lore". As far I know every other college football team navbox does (see Category:American college football team navigational boxes) and so do all of the college basketball team navboxes (see Category:American college basketball team navigational boxes).  That's several hundred analogous navboxes there.  I'm also not sure that your citation of MOS:AMP is applicable because that guideline refers to "normal text and headings", which I would interpret to mean prose and headings for sections of prose.  If you think that the use of ampersands in all these navboxes is inappropriate, please bring this up at one of the applicable WikiProjects.  In the meantime, it makes no sense to have one example buck the standard. Jweiss11 (talk) 02:49, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
