Sun/Miracle Pages

Thanks for the complement! I actually get all the Sun/Miracle schedule information from the Sun media guide. Now I'm not sure if you are asking so you can do WNBA season pages or NBA season pages (or maybe even another league), but if you do not have a media guide (which I'm sure you do not), you can simply change the url year on the NBA or WNBA schedule pages.

For example, for NBA this is default for last October: http://www.nba.com/schedules/2007_2008_game_schedule/October.html#scheds

That can easily be changed to: http://www.nba.com/schedules/2000_2001_game_schedule/October.html#scheds

And as long as those years are still in the websites' database, they will show you the page and you can take information from that.

Hope this helps! Nickv1025 (talk) 19:21, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Stub-rating for Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man

I'm asking if you would consider changing the rating on this article. I think it's as complete as it's going to get, as I've listed every appearance AVM Man made in comics (unless Mark Waid and Co. are planning on bringning him into 52). If I'm reading the ratings correctly, this article could rate a B-class--good for the casual reader. Please let me know what you think. Konczewski 18:03, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Request for third party assistance

Sure, glad to help. Please give me till Monday, so I have time to look things over carefully. --Tenebrae 17:56, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

OK. I've taken a sampling of User:Maple Leaf's Comics Project Talk-page boxes with importance ratings. Let me say first that I had no links to any of the allegedly insulting or inflammatory comments that User:Richard75 may have been leaving; I think it goes without saying that any such comments are not to be tolerated. We can criticize actions — hopefully in a constructive, positive and polite way — but we don't make it personal and we don't name-call. That just creates anger, which leads to flame wars, which just gets unnecessarily unpleasant.

That said: I do see where Maple Leaf provides a service. While he or she adds the box to articles as new as two days old, he or she has also added them to such pages as Talk:Dormammu and Talk:Wolfpack (Marvel Comics), which had sat boxless since 2005 and late 2006, respectively.

What I think might help is for Maple Leaf to add a brief explanation — maybe three or four sentences, using language from Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/Article Classification — each time he or she adds a box. There's even a built-in link phrased "Please explain the rating here" that appears in each box. That would make it easier for others to add their own thoughts, and create a community consensus for either keeping that initial springboard or changing it.

Without seeing any of the back-and-forth between Maple Leaf and Richard75, I don't know if there are other issues involved. I hope some of these observations have helped; I'm flattered at your both asking me, and let's keep our fingers crossed that I haven't made things worse! Happy Wiki'ing, -- Tenebrae 01:33, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey fellow Canadian, I just

wanted to drop a note about WP:MOSCAP#Section headings.  ==Notable Transactions== should be ==Notable transactions== because transaction in this context is neither the first word of the heading nor a common noun. —LOL (talk) 21:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Re:2008 Saskatchewan Roughriders Season

No problem. The biggest thing with this update is the page is inevitably going to become weighty with all the transactions. Especially, considering that each week during the season, there will likely be a minimum of 4 transactions each game, with the Reserve List players being shuffled.

Canadian football recognition

The Red Maple Leaf Award In recognition of innumerable improvements to Canadian football-related articles. DoubleBlue (Talk) 20:41, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: 2001 Milwaukee Brewers

Actually, you were working on it first, and I thought you were done, so it's my fault. I was just doing some cleanup, which you accidentally overwrote. If you want to use my format for any future work you do on stats, here's what I'm doing:

1) Standardizing the headers of the sections, so that they make sense when it's seen in the outline. "Batting" and "Pitching" are second-level headers, then each stat grouping is a third-level heading. That's why I add a position to the top batter table -- that way, people know why those batters are in the top table. If you want to see a blank stat table using my formatting, look at the 1884 Kansas City Cowboys season. You fill in more stats than I do, which is fine.

2) Grouping the pitchers more logically. Starting pitchers are those who pitched all (or nearly all) as a starter, relief pitchers are those who pitched all (or nearly all) in relief, and other pitchers are everyone else. I see you're using baseball-reference for the stats, just like I am, so it's fairly easy to see who those are.

3) Checking for links that are obviously not headed to the right page. I try to make sure, for instance, that the names of Hispanic players are properly accented so they don't have to go through redirects. This usually means copying their names directly from their pages.

Hope this helps! -Dewelar (talk) 23:59, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Navboxes

Please take into consideration the following before you continue to create to new navboxes for college football teams. The name of the navbox has to be the EXACT same as the text written on the create page. When you create the new navbox, the "|name=_____" HAS to be EXACTLY the same as the name of the navbox. Make sense? Otherwise when you're at the page, and you click to edit the navbox, it will come up with a blank page. If you're confused, look at the recent edit I made to the Air Force Falcons navbox.

New NCAA College Hoops pages

Hi - I noticed you recently created pages for the 1951-52 and 57-58 college basketball seasons - thanks for taking the initiative. I wanted to let you know that I have been updating some things on them to make them fit with the format and convention of already established season articles (A good completed example here). Here are some of the things I have done to try and make it consistent:

• Changed the naming convention to fit other years. Starting 1956-57, there were two NCAA Divisions: College (now called div. II) and University (now called Div I). So I moved the 57-58 page to 1957–58 NCAA University Division men's basketball season.
• Conference regular-season & tournament winners, and POYs are done in a table - I created this for 57-58 and will do the same for 51-52
• Took out NAIA info - it's an NCAA page so NAIA would need to be a different entry

I did some other minor stuff and adapted a few headings, but that's the jist. Again, thanks for starting the pages. Rikster2 (talk) 18:28, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Tulane

I started making the Tulane roster 2009–10 Tulane Green Wave women's basketball team a sortable list, but it looks like the Arizona State roster. I didn't look further, not sure what the best way to fix it is, so I'm letting you know. I'll come back and cleanup up the sorting after you decide the next steps.--SPhilbrickT 01:39, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Re:Category entries in italics

The articles in italics are redirects. When it comes to categories that involve individual team seasons, it makes more sense to put the category on the redirect, rather than on the destination page. That's all there is to it. Happy editing.
PS: I've got a question for you too. You've been putting in a lot of work creating season pages. Any reason you are putting your own hand-formatted wikitable in rather than using the {{CFB Schedule Start}} template demonstrated in the style guide? If it's about having the team colors on there, I don't see any reason why we couldn't put a color formatting option into the template title bar. DeFaultRyan 19:25, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Sortable roster

I spent more time than I care to admit creating a macro to make rosters sortable. Most of this is noncontroversial, but I didn't like how hard it was to make heights sortable, then it hit me if they we metric, it would be cleaner. So I convert to metric so it will sort, then display it using markup so both the metric and English appear. I guarantee someone will decide they don't want metric even showing, so I wanted to give you a heads up, in case you felt that way.

On other minor issue - I wanted to convert English to metric, save several decimal places but only show two. I didn't figure out how to do that, so I rounded to two decimal places. I note that 5 feet even converts to 1.52 meters, which translates back to 4 foot 12! Will check with help desk to see if they have any thoughts.--SPhilbrickT 01:26, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Team roster templates

You created some team templates. I just modified the ones relating to UConn, removing wikimarkup around players not likely to be notable. I did this for two reasons - one is that I do not like red links (despite their purpose) and second, the existence of red links is being used as an argument to delete templates. While I think that argument is flawed, removing the red links helps reduce the chance of fights over template deletion. Let me know if you want to discuss it further.--SPhilbrickT 13:18, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

decades seasons

Hey Maple Leaf, I like the idea I'm seeing of merging some individual year team seasons into decade articles until they can be broken up into individual articles. I've some thoughts:

• You do not need to move the articles all around to make the redirects just create the articles you want to be redirects with #REDIRECT [[Article name target]]
• Is there a standard you are using for your article name creation? I haven't looked carefully but it does appear to be of the form Team Name football, Year&endash;Year like Toronto Argonauts football, 1970–1979. Why did you include the word "football" in there? I might have thought Toronto Argonauts seasons (1970–1979) to more closely match the 1970 Toronto Argonauts season title or, as per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (numbers and dates)#Articles on events, Toronto Argonauts (1970–1979). I don't understand the need for "football".

DoubleBlue (talk) 04:11, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I think that avoiding duplication is a good idea. I was just saying that you don't have to move the articles to create the redirect. You can make the redirect directly by creating the article with the line #REDIRECT [[Article name target]] at the top. Cheers! DoubleBlue (talk) 16:37, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Baseball Seasons

Hey there, I've been working on standardizing the rosters for all the baseball season pages and I noticed you are still adding some of them. A couple of things.. We don't use flags on the rosters anymore.. that was decided by consensus at WP:Baseball awhile ago, and the rosters should be sorted alphabetically rather than by uniform number.. that makes it more consistent from the pre-number eras. I've updated all the roster up through 1987 and I keep having to fix the ones with the flags so it would be great if you could switch over to this style so I don't have to duplicate any of what you are doing.

I hope to take this to WP:FAC so if you get a chance this is one of the more important articles that you might be able to help out.

Also, since you like to work on team season articles, I have found a quick way to beef up articles is to go through the NCAA, Conference and team record books. I recently added statistical accomplishments to 1990-present Michigan Wolverines football team articles and a bunch of Oklahoma Sooner football team articles this way. You might find that interesting to work on several years of one team at a time while theumbing through the record books for that teams name.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:59, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Switzerland women's ice hockey league

Thank you for your comment. I would like to explain why I prefer the title Switzerland women's ice hockey league over Women's ice hockey in Switzerland. The latter one imply that the page is an overview of women's hockey in this country. This would mean a complete history of the subject (what was the 1st club?, a list of swiss female players in the men's league, the performances of swiss teams in EWCC, etc...), the actual situation, the national association's main objectives in the near future and I don't know whatelse. The page I have been working on is mainly about the league. I do mention other competitions because I haven't enough developed them to give them a page of their own (I'm against micro pages) and I have nowhere else to put them. --Tiouic (talk) 16:00, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Chuck Finley and Kansas City A's moving

In the 1967 KC A's article, I saw you edited in how Finley was trying to relocate the team. The trouble is, some of what you wrote was wrong. I'm WP:AGF that the mistakes are due to the source you were using aka that book on Finley. News stories written at the time, and available via Google news archive have different facts. The mistakes are small, the name of Seattle's Mayor and that a phone conversation, not a visit took place on Aug 1st 1961.

What I did was make the corrections, and replaced some of the Finley book references with news articles from 1967. I'm just letting you know what I did and why. Feel free to write back to me here if you have any comments, I'll keep a lookout for any. Cheers!- William 16:16, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Online Ambassador, Spring 2012

Hi, Maple Leaf! As you may know, the Wikipedia Education Program has instilled a new set of standards that courses must meet to officially join the program for the semester. As you can see, one of the requirements is that at least one ambassador or professor is a Wikipedian, as this should give students more access to helpful information about contributing to Wikipedia and creating good content. You are listed on the Online Ambassador page; are you still interested in remaining active this semester? Some of these classes will have to remove themselves from the program should they fail to meet these standards, but we would like to ensure that new students are receiving proper support during the editing process. Please let me know if you are still interested in mentoring these students this semester and/or visit the Online Ambassador talk page to select a course that still needs an Online Ambassador. Thank you! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 20:09, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Online Ambassador Inquiry

Hello Maple Leaf. I'm the instructor for a section of students at Ball State University in Indiana USA who are beginning a collaborative research project on Wikipedia for our Introduction to Digital Literacies class. I've been teaching with WP since Spring 2011; from my user page you can see a few example projects highlighted. We are currently in need of an online ambassador to advise five class groups on selecting topics and putting articles together: this means there will be five topics for an ambassador to assist with. Might you be interested in helping us? You can see the project timeline in my user area project subpage . I have gone through the appropriate channels and application documents with the Wikimedia folks in charge of education programs, but have not heard back in nearly two weeks (I've emailed Jamie Mathewson twice). But time is getting short and we must begin—thus I'm taking the liberty of contacting potential ambassadors directly. Thanks for your consideration and good luck with your projects! –Webster Newbold (talk) 15:57, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Wikipedia Ambassadors update

Hi! You're getting this message because you are or have been a Wikipedia Ambassador. A new term is beginning for the United States and Canada Education Programs, and I wanted to give you an update on some important new information if you're interested in continuing your work this term as a Wikipedia Ambassador.

You may have heard a reference to a transition the education program is going through. This is the last term that the Wikimedia Foundation will directly run the U.S. and Canada programs; beginning in June, a proposed thematic organization is likely to take over organizing the program. You can read more about the proposal here.

Another major change in the program will take effect immediately. Beginning this term, a new MediaWiki education extension will replace all course pages and Ambassador lists. (See Wikipedia:Course pages and Help:Education Program extension for more details.) Included in the extension are online volunteer and campus volunteer user rights, which let you create and edit course pages and sign up as an ambassador for a particular course.

If you would like to continue serving as a Wikipedia Ambassador — even if you do not support a class this term — you must create an ambassador profile. If you're no longer interested in being a Wikipedia Ambassador, you don't need to do anything.

Please do these steps as soon as possible

First, you need the relevant user rights for Online and/or Campus Ambassadors. (If you are an admin, you can grant the rights yourself, for you as well as other ambassadors.) Just post your rights request here, and we'll get you set up as quickly as possible.

Once you've got the ambassador rights, please set up at a Campus and/or Online Ambassador profile. You can do so at:

• Special:CampusAmbassadorProfile
• Special:OnlineAmbassadorProfile

Going forward, the lists of Ambassadors at Special:CampusAmbassadors and Special:OnlineAmbassadors will be the official roster of who is an active Ambassador. If you would like to be an Ambassador but not ready to serve this term, you can un-check the option in your profile to publicly list it (which will remove your profile from the list).

After that, you can sign on to support courses. The list of courses will be at Special:Courses. (By default, this lists "Current" courses, but you can change the Status filter to "Planned" to see courses for this term that haven't reached their listed start date yet.)

As this is the first term we have used the extension, we know there will be some bugs, and we know the feature set is not as rich as it could be. (A big wave of improvements is already in the pipeline. And if you know MediaWiki and could help with code review, we'd love to have your help!) Please reach out to me (Sage Ross) with any complaints, bug reports, and feature suggestions. The basic features of the extension are documented at Wikipedia:Course pages, and you can see a tutorial for setting up and using them here.

Communication and keeping up to date

In the past, the Education Program has had a pretty fragmented set of communication channels. We're trying to fix that. These are the recommended places to discuss and stay up-to-date on the education program:

1. The education noticeboard has become the main on-wiki location for discussion of the Education Program. You can post there about broad education program issues as well as issues with individual courses.
2. The Ambassadors Announce email list is a very low-traffic announcements list of important information all Ambassadors need to be aware of. We encourage all Ambassadors (and other interested Wikipedians) to subscribe to the list; follow the instructions on the link to add your email address.
3. If you use IRC regularly, or need to try to reach someone immediately, the #wikipedia-en-ambassadors ^connect IRC channel is the place to find me and fellow Ambassadors.

Ambassador training and resources

We now have an online training for Ambassadors, which is intended to be both an orientation about the Wikipedia Ambassador role for newcomers and the manual for how to do the role. (There are parallel trainings for students and for educators as well.)

Please go through the training if you feel like you need a refresher on how a typical class is supposed to go and where the Ambassadors fit in, or if you want to review and help improve it. If there's something you'd like to see added, or other suggestions you have for it, feel free to edit the training and/or leave feedback. A primer on setting up and using course pages is included in the educators' training.

The Resources page of the training is the main place for Ambassador-related resources. If there's something you think is important as a resource that's not on there, please add it.

Finally, whether or not you work with any classes this term, I encourage you to post entries to the Trophy Case whenever you see excellent work from students or if you have great examples from past semesters. And, as always, let students (and other editors!) know when they do things well; a little WikiLove goes a long way!

Proposal to start a women's basketball task force

I'm very interested in improving coverage of women's basketball. I thought briefly about forming a Wikiproject, but while researching, realized that a task force would be ideal. There are two major advantages of a task force over a Wikiproject. First is that the task force can leave some of the bureaucracy to the parent Wikiproject. Second, and possibly more important, is that a task force can have more than one parent Wikiproject. While WikiProject Basketball is an obvious parent, so is WikiProject Women's sport, and the task force may be able to draw from both.

According to this process for starting a task force, the first thing to do is gather consensus, so I am sending this to some editors who have been active in editing relevant articles. If there is sufficient interest, I'll take a first stab at filling out the task force template and creating a draft task force page.

At this point, all I need is an answer to two questions:

1. I would (or would not) be interested in being part of a task force to improve the coverage of women's basketball
2. I think a different approach would be better (followed by alternative).--SPhilbrick(Talk) 14:12, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Basketball/Women's basketball has been created. I haven't yet added it to the Wikiproject pages, but will do that, however, I wanted to let you know it exists, and has some suggested tasks.SPhilbrick(Talk) 19:22, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

MLB teams going entire season without being shut out

If you get a moment, please could you have a look at this reference you added and let me know what the book says? I'm wondering if the same reference could be used to fix the lead section of 1932 New York Yankees season, as I'd like to change "They are the only major-league team ever to go an entire season without being shut out." to something like "They became the first major-league team ever to go an entire season without being shut out, an accomplishment later matched by the 2000 Cincinnati Reds" However I don't want to simply copy in a reference without knowing what the reference actually says, and I don't own that book.

We need you at the Sam Jacks article

Hi Mark! Hope you're still around wiki. Recently at the Sam Jacks article, content which you added in 2009 was removed by an editor who felt it did not belong because it wasn't sourced. It mentioned that Jacks was instrumental in developing the NOPHA, Northern Ontario Playground Hockey Association. I'm going to do a revert and put it back and add "citation needed" instead because this removal was needless considering there is a better option. I'm here to ask if you can remember where you found this information so it can be cited in the article. I think it's important to keep it there for a number of different reasons including chronological development, history and heritage, and the fact that this development was probably critical in the development of the sport of ringette which Jacks created, as well as female ice hockey and brown in the Canadian province of Ontario.
