List of Heisman Trophy winners

 * Notified: WT:CFB, User talk:Avenged Eightfold

Due to continuous edit warring over the Reggie Bush Heisman Trophy, list appears to no longer meet criteria #6. Smashvilletalk 19:41, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment I don't see the need to delist because of a small content dispute. Obamafan70's comment on the talk page is spot on, IMO. Make a note of it and move on. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:49, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment (edit conflict) I don't think I've ever seen a Featured item (article or list) lose its status because of edit-warring, and it does seem silly that its status should be imperilled over such a minor point in the grand scheme of things. I'm surprised nobody has sought page-protection to try and enforce a moratorium on editing by IPs (who seem to be carrying out the bulk of the edit-warring) until there is a consensus as to how to handle the situation. (And per Dabomb's comment on Obamafan70's wise suggestion). BencherliteTalk 19:52, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment While we're here I might as well say that the citation needed needs removing, and the shade of the red used for Reggie makes the line utterly unreadable. But I agree with the above. This lists's issues are small and could easily have been dealt with without the need for an FLRC. --WFC-- 19:58, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Issues resolved I have added a footnote that resolves the Reggie Bush situation for now, and removed the citation needed tag. Dabomb87 (talk) 20:29, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Withdraw. Entirely willing to withdraw here. Upon further review, we appear to have some good editors watching the page to keep it in check. --Smashvilletalk 21:20, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I must say that I am impressed at the quick fix of this article. Thanks to all who help resolved this issue before I even got the chance to check it out. A8x   (talk)  00:09, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
