Hi - I'm new to editing here and wanted to know about fair use with images - specifically, would scanning in pictures from my school's football media guide be considered fair use? I assume this is the case based on the description I read, but I wanted to get some clarification. Many Gopher coaches have pages without pictures and I'd like to get a head shot of each and this would be my only source for most of them. --Gopherguy 00:23, 17 April 2007 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gopherguy (talk • contribs) 00:20, 17 April 2007 (UTC).

NMajdan, I've been working on a template for WikiProject: Ice Hockey that is at {{Ice Hockey Game}}. The problem we're running into is that when the template is transcluded, it adds two or three lines of HTML that look like this:

<p><br /></p>

Mecu has already looked at it and wasn't able to come up with a solution, so he suggested that I ask you to take a glance. There is a test copy here that is transcluded with test data here. Thanks. z4ns4tsu\^talk 14:36, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

I need your capable assistance, please. I want to move an article Sand Island Light to Sand Island Lighthouse and expand the article. Unfortunately, someone previously made Sand Island Lighthouse a redirect to Dauphin Island which is nearby but the DI article only contains a paragraph about the lighthouse. I plan to put a {{Main|}} link in the DI article. Вasil | talk 02:44, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Recently you revoked the semi-protection of the Ancient Rome article, citing the rules about not using semi-protection as a preemptive measure or to prevent editing by those not using an account. Please go through the history section of this article and take a look at how much vandalism this article received prior to its semi-protection. As you will see, it was getting attacked on a daily basis, and sometimes large chuncks of text were lost for months due to reverters not being careful. In fact, only a few hours after it was unprotected, the article was vandalized. I'll let it go unprotected for a few days, but if it gets vandalized at the same rate that it used to be (which I strongly suspect will be the case), I'm going to put another request for semi-protection in. This is a high traffic article, and it needs protection. Galanskov 03:01, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

The vandalism so far has already caused problems with text being momentarily lost, so I've gone ahead and put in a request for semi-protection. In the meantime it is worth noting that you did not discuss this at the article talk page prior to acting, thus failing to ensure that you had consensus for the revocation. Please do not repeat this mistake in the future. Galanskov 11:21, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

In CSS, color values that have three sets of consistent values (ie: #336699) can be condensed (ie: #369). Your sig has #000000, which could be reduced to #000.

Just a little tweak that could be made. Feel free to ignore it if you want. :) EVula // talk // ☯ // 21:45, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I knew that but I never use it so I rarely remember it when coding. Usually, three characters doesn't make much of a difference in coding but I understand on Wikipedia it does to some. I'll change it.↔NMajdan•talk 22:00, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi NMajdan, I have a question about the template User:1013-josh/workingarticle, which I am using to mark articles currently being edited by students in my composition class. Should I use it on the article page or the article talk page? I've had some editors removing it from article pages (Fort Abraham Lincoln) and others adding it where it was missing (Buffalo Ridge). From a teacher's perspective, it would be best if I could put it on the article page itself so that it's not missed by other editors. These are all new articles or significantly expanded stubs, and I'm hoping that my students can have a limited amount of "authorship" for the next week while we revise collaboratively and bring the articles up to standard. So I'm thinking of it more as an "under construction" template (which would go on the article page), rather than a project template (which would go on the talk page). But I thought I would defer to an admin on this. What do you think? 1013-josh 00:05, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

I did see your WP:BOUNTY entry, but I wasn't doing it for that. I just ran out of ideas for contributions, and I went there and saw your entry.

Greetings. I left you a "Message" on the Tulsa article's talk page but it's fairly urgent so I'll leave you one here as well. A FA Reviewer has some trepidations about the licence of the BOK Center picture you uploaded and that is in the sports section of the Tulsa Article. I took off the picture to avoid further confusion by other reviewers but if there is a way to make the licence more clear or to remove the warning thats on the picture's main page, then by all means, please do so ASAP, because it's a great and useful picture for the article and as long as there is no confusion or concerns about its licence I would love to have it up there.

Is there a page somewhere that enumerates changes in Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team/Chicago_articles_by_quality_statistics? I.e., a list of pages where the importance or quality assessment has changed. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 18:13, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the log link. Can you tell me why the log treats importance and priority differently. I had thought they were the same parameter. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 20:02, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

If you look at the log search on Jesse Jackson. I used priority=top for him instead of importance=top. The log does not seem to recognize priority. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 20:23, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm no expert, but I think there is a fair use issue on the Charles Thompson page. Help me here, but I think the Charles Thompson page has an issue with the SI cover used. Isn't a magazine cover only fair use if it is strictly for the purpose of illustrating the magazine, rather than the subject?→Deser† sapper•≈talk 16:08, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

The article looks really good overall. Here are some minor things that should be fixed before the FA nomination:

• 1.) Magazine titles, etc. should be italicized. e.g. PC Magazine, U.S. News & World Report, the Princeton Review not italicized in lead. Also, it's The Princeton Review ;)
• 2.) In the lead, what does "top tier of national universities" mean? This is a very meaningless statement because it gives no perspective. How many schools are in the "top tier"? 50? 250? State this.
• 3.) For rankings or when some publication says something about OU, or when you present a fact about National Merit winners, etc. you should always state the year of your reference. This will allow the article to remain current even if somebody doesn't update it. This is standard wikipidia practice. e.g. "The Princeton Review named OU as one of its "Best Value" colleges in 2007" or could be "...colleges from 2002-2007" if they have named it every year since 2002. "has" should be deleted. Want past tense.
• 4.) History section is too long. It should be broken into subsections. I'd say 2-3 would be appropriate.
• 5.) "Norman campus" subsection under "Academic profile" seems misplaced. This all seems to be academic profile nothing about the campus, which is talked about later.
• 6.) I still think it's slightly over wikified. For example, law, medicine, gymnastics, etc don't need links. Honestly, do you think anybody would click law? Not likely. I know this is personal preference, but wikipedia policy does call for only making relevant links. See User:Tony1's page for details about this.
• 7.) Some sections are way too short to merit their own section. Try to include this information in other larger sections or expand them if very essential. For example, "Health Sciences Center," "Norman", and "North campus" are too short.
• 8.) "Museums and libraries" seems misplaced. Should be under Campus, in my opinion. Although some might argue this. If want to maintain its own section, at least should be moved up the article (probably right after campus).
• 9.) "Student government" section is pretty worthless. Every school has this; one sentence about the organization is sufficient. We don't need to know all the intricate details.
• 10.) Need more references for "Athletics," "Main campus," sections.
• 11.) Everything in the lead is supposed to be in the article somewhere. The lead is supposed to summarize the article, not add new information. The entire second paragraph of the lead is pretty much not mentioned in the rest of the article. The lead is the only place where it's ok to repeat info. Actually, it's supposed to be that way!

Hope these suggestions help. Good luck! -Bluedog423^Talk 21:19, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Your reply is well taken. You don't need to apologize for disagreeing with some of my points. Obviously, many of my suggestions are personal preference, and everybody has a different opinion, so there really is no perfect article. Those were just my impressions from having spent considerable time writing a university article myself, but others, of course, may disagree. I think the article is probably ready for FA nomination. Although, I have to be honest and I didn't carefully read the entire article for prose issues, so I wouldn't be able to support it without taking a more detailed look; but at the same time, I have no reason to oppose it either. Also, while you point to other FAs as guidelines (which is obviously a good idea, and a strategy I employed frequently), some commentators reply that FA standards have gotten stricter and just because one article got by with some apparent error, doesn't mean that this article should. I know that argument is annoying, but just wanted to warn you that some people use it because I had to deal with things like that during the Duke FA process. Good luck! It is obvious a considerable amount of work has gone into the article. -Bluedog423^Talk 02:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you deleted an image here because it was a duplicate of commons. When doing this, if the names are different, please verify all links are updated, before deletion (e.g. orphan what you will delete). After deletion, it's hard to figure out if an image name was used. It's also not obvious which image in Commons is the replacement, if the original is deleted. Fortunately, in this case, I happened to remember the image. But now I see you deleted a number of other files, for the same reason. Do you know if those were also left as redlinked in the articles using the image? --Rob 05:08, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

• On 10 April 2007 you deleted the image Ocean basin.png. The so-called duplicate image for Ocean basin.png was Oceanic basin.svg, however, that image does not display properly, and as it has a different file type, it was not automatically replaced in the articles that were using the image that you deleted, for example in the Ocean basin article. I recall that several articles used that image, but the What links here function doesn't recover them. So I will have to look for them by subject. Also, could you give us an image of Oceanic basin.svg that will display properly in an article? --Bejnar 15:46, 12 May 2007 (UTC) talk

A 0.333 batting average is pretty good, it will usually get you in the top 20 by the end of the season. It helps to have a lot of RBIs (References Batted In) and maybe a good ERA (Edit Revert Average)... Ok give me some credit I tried.Okiefromokla•talk 03:40, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Per this edit, OU has a hockey team, but it's not highly publicized on television. However, since the link is official and is sponsored by the university, the fact should stay in the article. Reverting back shows ownership and a lack of good faith. Real96 16:04, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

I heard back from the permissions verification, and they said it was not acceptable because, while I made clear that I had asked for permission to use a the photo with GFDL or CC-BY-SA, the photographer had simply replied that it was ok to use it on Wikipedia (which I took as implicit permission to release under a free license). So I sent the photographer another email to clarify, and he said that the GFDL or similar was further than he was willing to go. I'm really disappointed, but so it goes.--ragesoss 20:45, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I have two questions about your welcome script, and I'd appreciate it greatly if you could answer any of them.

• Is it possible to use different welcome templates for IPs and accounts? (e.g. {{welcome-anon}} for IPs and {{welcome-reg}} for accounts)
• Is it possible to automatically include a parameter (e.g. {{welcome-anon|Salaskan}} instead of just {{welcome-anon}}?

Thanks for your time. SalaSkan 16:16, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

You can use a different welcome template but you cannot use multiple welcome templates. This script cannot differentiate between a registered user or an IP user. If you want to add a parameter, you should be able to do it by adding it to the var welcome_msg. So you would have var welcome_msg = 'welcome-anon|Salaskan'. Hope I answered your questions.↔NMajdan•talk 17:03, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

However, I feel for an accurate debate, it has to be brought outside of WPCFB. As I just posted over at the talk page, if you are serious, I suggest you file a RFC. I'd be happy to answer any other questions you have.↔NMajdan•talk 18:37, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

• I don't mind that you are against it. What I upset about is people basically saying: I don't care what wiki documenation says - i like it this way (which is what most people are doing). I have opened up the discussion on the talk page for WP:UNI and give it some time there. Some people have brought up some pretty good points for status quo. It's not about "winning" the argument. It's about having an argument that is well based on both sides. The same thing is happening to another user at San Diego Chargers. And the crap that i've put up with from Chrisjnelson on the NFLactive page is down right ridiculous. I am aware of other avenues (RFC, 3O, etc..etc..) but that requires me to "jump" through hoops just to get anything done - and from my experiences with a lot of these process - they often result in little help. I guess I'm just venting more than anything else. Be well and thanks for your response. Jmfangio| ►Chat  18:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi! Im an English teacher in Toluca Mexico (west of Mexico City). My Advanced B classes will be contributing to Wikipedia as the focus of their English course for Fall 2007. I am looking for people who would like to mentor my students (who will be working in groups) as they do the following assignments: Edit and article (adding a citation), writing a stub with a citation, translating an English language article for Spanish Wikipedia and for the final project, writing a full article for English Wiki (they can expand on the stub mentioned previously). What I would like to do is put a list of "mentors/adopters" on my talk page as a kind of short cut for my students, who have limited time to get things done. The semester begings Aug 6, but the real Wikipedia work wont begin until the beginning of Sept. If you would like to add your name to my list, please go to my talk page and add it there, perhaps with a short introduction, if you like.

Thank you!

Hello, I'm guessing that you disagree that College Marching bands fall within the scope of WikiProject College football's pagentry and tradtions? -- Upholder 17:18, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I do. I brought this up over at WT:CFB yesterday and nobody has disagreed. I was given the go-ahead to remove them. If you disagree, feel free to voice your opinion there.↔NMajdan•talk 17:22, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I requested a change to this template to make a couple of items optional and you asked me to remind you today, so that's what I'm doing. Thanks for your help! Gopherguy 16:33, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I have just begun a blitz on the Oklahoma article to get it up to GA or FA standards (so we can have another page for the portal and something to feature on the main page in november for the centennial). If you have any spare time, would you care to join in? There's a lot to do, but I'm confident it can happen. Okiefromokla•talk 03:13, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

I've got a template system going for displaying stats in a more standardized way. It's not very glamorous but it works. The problem I'd like your help with is the data rows don't have the table background color and are "transparent" just showing the blue color instead of the light gray as they should. Any ideas? The example is at: User talk:Mecu/FBStats Start. Feel free to edit as needed and make any improvements as well or provide suggestions and other feedback. Thanks. MECU≈talk 16:14, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I don't think the problem is in the template, I saw another table with the same "problem" and it looks like someone changed the CSS for WP. I would still like your input and feedback. MECU≈talk 16:19, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't even see a problem. I compared your template to the normal table on 2006 Oklahoma Sooners football team and they look the same.↔NMajdan•talk 17:55, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi - since you've done a lot of work on the NCAATeamSeason template, I was wondering if you could make another change to it. Currently, the "Prev year" and "Next year" parameters are not used for football - these are simply calculated by subtracting and adding one to the "Year". That is perfect as the default mode, but I'd like the ability to use those two parameters so that if they are not empty, the template would use the passed in values instead of doing the calculation. For example, I'm working on a page about the early days of football at the University of Minnesota. Their first season was 1882, so I'd like to be able to specify "none" for the previous year. Then, they didn't have a team in 1884 or 1885, so for the 1883 season, I'd like to specify 1886 as the "Next year" and for 1886, I'd like to specify 1883 as the "Prev year". Is this something you'd have the time to look at? Thanks! Gopherguy 16:06, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I'll try to take a look at this this week.↔NMajdan•talk 23:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I remember when you updated it, only the appropriate sections would show in the articles and the rest would be "hidden" by default.

Interesting website. It shows there are several teams clustered there in the same general area of the list. I remember in 2005 Texas passed Nebraska in wins and at the end of 2005 we were 3rd in both lists. I hadn't realized we lost enough ground in 2006 to have dropped to 4, but it looks like we did. Johntex\^talk 05:28, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Nmajdan. What do you say about doing this so that the CFB schedules fit 100% to the reader's computer screen? I think the schedule would look better that way. After looking through most of the 2007 season articles it looks like no one put a picture or anything to the side of the schedule, so making the table's width 100% shouldn't block out anything. If that won't work, we could create an option that will allow the editor to decide whether they want the schedule's width 100% or not. BlueAg09 (Talk) 22:29, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

You either nominated a WP:FLC or closed such a nomination this year. As such, you are the type of editor whose opinion I am soliciting. We now have over 400 featured lists and seem to be promoting in excess of 30 per month of late (41 in August and 42 in September). When Today's featured article (TFA) started (2004-02-22), they only had about 200 featured articles and were barely promoting 20 new ones per month. I think the quality of featured lists is at least as good as the quality of featured articles was when they started appearing on the main page. Thus, I am ready to open debate on a proposal to institute a List of the Day on the main page with nominations starting November 1 2007, voting starting December 1 2007 and main page appearances starting January 1 2008. For brevity, the proposal page does not discuss the details of eventual main page content, but since the work has already been done, you should consider this proposal assuming the eventual main page will resemble either an excerpted list format or an abbreviated text format. The proposal page does not debate whether starting with weekly list main page entries would be better than daily entries. However, I suspect persons in favor of weekly lists are really voicing opinions against lists on the main page since neither TFA nor Picture of the day started as weekly endeavors, to the best of my knowledge. Right now debate seems to be among support for the current selective democratic/consensus based proposal, a selective dictatorial approach like that used at WP:TFA or a non-selective first in line/calendar approach like that used at WP:POTD. See the List of the Day proposal and comment at WP:LOTDP and its talk page.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:59, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello, I hope all is well...

BlueAg09 and I have been having some discussion about a new table. We'd like to get your opinion on the table and on the question of whether it would benefit from being made into a template.

The basic idea is a (probably sortable) table for each team that lists for each year what their final rankings were and what their bowl results were. It would be something like a combination of: this ranking table and this bowl table.

What do you think? Johntex\^talk 16:27, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Ooh, I personally like the skinny version. It allows for text to flow without having this table cause a long interuption of the article. I suppose it could be difficult for some users, such as those that need large font size.

Since you are the Template King, do you see any advantage to making this into a template, or is a plain-old (sortable) Wikitable just as good for something like this? Johntex\^talk 17:35, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Oklahoma releases new newsletter September 2007 brings a new face to WikiProject Oklahoma: a newsletter. As in all of Wikipedia, the new WikiOkie Reporter (tenative name) is intended to be a collaborative effort among editors. Anyone can edit it: this month's newsletter is placed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/aug07, but next month's will be placed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/oct07, with the following month at /newsletter/nov07, and so on. While this month's article's were initially written by User:Okiefromokla, it is hoped other editors will be excited to contribute to articles, content, layout, and ideas. This is a completely new child of WikiProject Oklahoma, and it should reflect the collaborative work of everyone who's bored and has nothing to do for a few minutes. As such, anything can be discussed here: anything - layout, color scheme, pictures, content, etc. The behind-the-scenes workings for the WikiOkie Reporter will be simple: anyone wishing to receive the newsletter in their talk page may place their name at sign-up list, but they are more than free to remove their name from the same list at any time. Anyone wishing to discuss ideas or anything at all related to the newsletter may look no further than here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/talk. Several WikiProjects already have ongoing newsletters, including Wikipedia: WikiProject North Dakota, from which WikiProject Oklahoma's newsletter has been based. For the time being, Okiefromokla will assume distribution responsibilities for the newsletter, maintaining the template, and writing articles from scratch if other editors have not done so by the 1st of the month. Promotions on the rise For many Wikipedians, summer is a time to kick back, relax, and make an occasional minor edit to their favorite few pages. Not so in WikiProject Oklahoma. Between May 12 and September, editors have been busily working on Oklahoma, Tulsa, and Woody Guthrie, and all three have been promoted. Prior to May, there were only seven Featured or Good articles in WikiProject Oklahoma. On May 12, Tulsa was promoted from B-class to FA class after a few months of extensive editing. Its primary editors were User:Nmajdan, User:SandyGeorgia, User:Okiefromokla, and a handful of others. On August 25, Oklahoma was promoted from B-class to FA class after a month-long blitz. User:Okiefromokla, User: SandyGeorgia, and several anonymous IPs contributed heavily to the article. On June 13, 2007, Woody Guthrie was promoted from B-Class to GA class after two failed attempts at promotion. User:Dannygutters, User:Gaff, User:Maenpong, and a handful of others contributed most to the article.

Modest boost in assessed articles during September WikiProject Oklahoma's massive list of unassessed articles got smaller over the month of September, as 45 articles were assessed by bots and editors. Assessments made on August 31 bring the total to 62 assessed articles over the 31-day period. On September 15, BetacommandBot assessed 40 articles from no-class to stub and start class. This bot automatically updates the talk pages of articles included in more than one WikiProject if at least one WikiProject has already assessed the material, bringing each interested WikiProject's ratings into compliance with the assessment. No B-class or higher quality assessments were given out over September, and only a small handful of importance assessments were granted. On August 31, one Low, Mid, and High importance rating was given to three separate articles. Leroy McGuirk was given the lone high-importance rating. Oklahoma categories receive help from Texan TexasAndroid, an administrator, assisted WikiProject Oklahoma by categorizing nearly 100 Oklahoma-related pages on September 24. The additions were made mainly to Tulsa-related pages. "I've done the major cities in Texas in the past, and was thinking about what to do next, and decided to stay relatively close to home for now. Thus OK's big cities got done," TexasAndroid wrote on his user page. Shortcut WP:TULSA Meet WikiProject Oklahoma's "sub-project" Taskforce Tulsa, a collaboration of editors operating under WikiProject Oklahoma, has been created to increase the scope of Wikipedia's coverage of Tulsa and its surrounding areas. Taskforce Tulsa is many things, but most importantly, it is a way for editors to have a place to put Tulsa-related requests (pictures, article, expansion, collaboration) for other editors interested in Tulsa. News, guidelines, and category trees related to Tulsa articles can easily be accessed and added through the task force's project page. The taskforce is not its own WikiProject. Instead, it works in conjunction with WikiProject Oklahoma to increase the quality and scope of Tulsa-related material. Because of the increased clutter and unnecessary waste of space that would be created with a new WikiProject, editors have opted for a taskforce, or workgroup project. Rather than having a Wikiproject Oklahoma banner as well as a Wikiproject Tulsa banner on most Tulsa-related pages, editors can simply add the Tulsa Taskforce note onto the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner. Cleaner, clearer, and more efficient. In edit mode, such a banner would appear as this: "{{WikiProject Oklahoma|class=FA|importance=Top|tulsa-task-force=yes}}". In other words, simply adding "tulsa-task-force=yes}}" to the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner on an article's talk page would include that article into the Tulsa Task Force. According to an explanation on the taskforce's project page, "The Tulsa Task Force is a 'sub-wikiproject' operating 'beneath' Wikiproject Oklahoma, and is designed to assist it by focusing specifically on Tulsa-related material. Editors who are interested in expanding knowledge of Tulsa on Wikipedia may wish to consider themselves part of Taskforce Tulsa as well as Wikiproject Oklahoma." Interested parties can sign up much like a stand-alone WikiProject.

November 16 is Oklahoma's centennial, and, as expected, WikiProject Oklahoma's newest featured article will appear on the Main Page. Oklahoma will be the first article produced by WikiProject Oklahoma featured on the Main Page since October 23, 2005, when Black Seminoles was featured. Jim Thorpe has also been featured, coming on August 13, 2004. Though featured articles for the main page are always selected by Raul654, Oklahoma's 100th anniversary makes its main page appearance a near sure thing. As of early November 6, Oklahoma had 14 nods of support, with none in opposition. All are welcome and encouraged to help spruce up the article as much as possible for its main page debut, as well as lend a hand in anti-vandalism efforts on November 16th. Wikiproject Oklahoma gets a new Wikipedia ad Thanks to User:Miranda, Wikiproject Oklahoma has joined the ranks of WikiProjects with ads to welcome new editors. On November 5, the ad, in banner form, was completed two days after its request, becoming the 107th Wikipedia ad. The ad, located at Qxz-ad107.gif, can also be seen on WikiProject Oklahoma's project page. Those interested in having the ad on their user pages can add "{{wikipedia ads}}", which displays a random ad picture. An alternative is to simply add the image directly, avoiding unwanted ads. Over 100 articles added to project During the month of October, including Novermber 2, 104 new articles were added to WikiProject Oklahoma. November 2 saw 65 articles added to the wikiproject, all by User:SkiersBot, which adds articles to wikiproject corresponding to tags, such as articles with Oklahoma-related stub tags.
This month's task: Anti-vandalism and maintenance efforts for Oklahoma on November 16!

Hello, I hope you are doing well. If you have a moment, could you please glance at Holiday Bowl, where it talks about OU vacating the win - it doesn't read right to me but I'm not sure how to fix it.

As a side note, I'm off to create 2007 Holiday Bowl right now. It has been speculated that they may try stage a USC vs Texas rematch if all the dominoes fall correctly. I don't really like that idea. As a football fan, I think it is too early to tap that match-up again. As a Texas fan, I think USC would have more to prove and that worries me. Take care, Johntex\^talk 03:03, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 17:49, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I've been thinking about alternatives for that template, since it seems almost certain that it's going to be deleted. I've created a mockup of an alternative design, based around your single-game bowl game infobox, and I think it works rather well. It's a really rough draft, and it's just intended to get across the shape of what I think would work.

I'm not a very good coder, but I'd be happy to help work on it with you if you think it's worth persuing. Let me know what you think. JKBrooks85 (talk) 16:15, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Wow. I really like that. I've been working on a replacement as well but I like your design. In my spare time, I'll start working on coding that template. Edit: I'll be working on it in my userspace: User:Nmajdan/Test.↔NMajdan•talk 17:00, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

I was looking at your test template, and I noticed a remark on "international broadcast information". There's actually one bowl game that is regularly broadcast outside the USA — the International Bowl, which is held in Toronto and broadcast in Canada. There's also an article on the inaugural game in 2007, which would be a good place for that idea. — Dale Arnett (talk) 19:10, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

You're right, that would be a good use for it. Guess I'll have to get around to adding that quicker than I expected.↔NMajdan•talk 19:12, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

What you have so far is great IMHO and could be implemented as the replacement for the NCAAFootballSingleGameHeader. Thanks! Group29 (talk) 18:34, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Just wanted to say thanks for the fantastic job you did on this infobox. It's really nice looking, and worked out pretty darn well. I've thrown it up on the 2006 Chick-fil-A bowl article that spawned this whole process, and it looks awesome. If you've got the time, I'd appreciate it if you could swing by the FAC page and leave some comments or support. I'd really appreciate it, since you (indirectly) contributed to its success. JKBrooks85 21:54, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Template:WolverinesCoach has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. michfan2123 22:34, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue I - December 2007
Project news A new single-game infobox has been created, replacing the old {{NCAAFootballSingleGameHeader}}. This infobox replaces the scoreboard-style header and should be used on all new single-game articles. The 2007-2008 bowl season begins on December 20 with the 2007 Poinsettia Bowl. Editors are encouraged to create and expand individual bowl game articles throughout the bowl season. 2006 Oklahoma Sooners football team is undergoing a Featured Article Review. Editors are encouraged to visit the talk page and leave comments or support. Early history of Minnesota Golden Gophers football has an an open peer review. Andrew Hatch, an article about the third-string LSU Tigers quarterback, was nominated in an AfD and was deleted. An article about Colt David, the LSU Tigers kicker, was also nominated for deletion but was kept. Editors are encouraged to expand the article in order to prevent a repeat of the AfD. 2006 Chick-fil-A Bowl, a Wikiproject College Football Featured Article, has been nominated to appear on the front page of Wikipedia on December 31.	From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the inaugural issue of the College football WikiProject's newsletter! I hope that you'll find this newsletter to be useful, particularly if you, like so many of us, are too busy to regularly check the talk page and the other project pages. I intend for this to be a monthly summary of new events, featured article candidates, good article candidates, requests for peer review, and new tools and infoboxes dealing with the College football wikiproject. Please consider this initial issue to be a prototype; as always, any comments and suggestions are extremely welcome, and will help me improve the newsletter in the coming months.

Since you have edited {{Michigan Wolverines Football}}, I thought you might consider supporting Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Lists of Michigan Wolverines football receiving leaders.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 15:54, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi, i was wondering if you might take a look at a template and see if you could help fix it. I'm asking because I saw that you're both an admin (it's a protected template) as well as an expert template programmer. The template concerned is {{Non-free use rationale}}, and the issue is that it chokes on certain filenames (e.g. Image:!!! (album).jpg). I think the issue might have to do with escaping characters, but I don't know how to do that. Any help you could provide would be much appreciated! Cheers, Storkk (talk) 15:27, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

More info: currently, {{PAGENAME}} has been replaced by {{PAGENAMEE}}, which has solved one problem, but [[{{{Article}}}]] is still causing it to choke. Cheers, --Storkk (talk) 15:47, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Quadell fixed it. Sorry to bother you. --Storkk (talk) 15:52, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Just wanted to say thanks for the words and helpful links. I have been out of town for a while, so it took some time before I got back in and read it. Can't wait to get started on an article for my local football team (Wofford) on the College Football project. I'm sure I'll have some questions...Thanks again! Thör (talk) 02:03, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

I know it's the holiday season and you're probably busy and won't see this until much later, but I'd like to ask if you could do a Good Article review on 2007 ACC Championship for me. I'm sure someone would get around to doing it eventually, but there's an enormous backlog of articles there at the moment, and it could take months. Right now, I'm interested in seeing if I'm going down the right track with this sort of format for single-game articles. It's the same format/style that got 2006 Chick-fil-A Bowl to featured status, but I'd like to find out if that was just a fluke, or if this is something that really works for college football articles. I'm interested in taking the article to featured status, and I can't really do that until it's had a good article review.

Either way, I'd really appreciate your help, whenever you'd be able to give it. Thanks. JKBrooks85 (talk) 02:41, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

I'll try. If I can, it won't be until Wednesday at the earliest.↔NMajdan•talk 03:53, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

I really appreciate the review. I'm not really familiar with the "standard wikitable". What's the best place to find out more information about that? I'll also be sure to emphasize more about how poor attendance at the 2007 game triggered new locations for future games (i.e. the 2008 ACC Championship Game). Thanks for your help! JKBrooks85 (talk) 17:15, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

That looks really nice! I'll have to do that to all the single-game articles I've been working on. Thanks a lot! JKBrooks85 (talk) 20:33, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

No problem.↔NMajdan•talk 20:34, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey I was wandering if you could help me about a problem with the AutoWikiBrowser? I've been approved and i downloaded all the right stuff, but it's not working. The only thing on my computer I find is AWB updater and when I click on that it says no updates available and closes. If you could help me that would be great! Thanks!

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue II - January 2008
Project news Between November and December 2007, over 1,000 articles were added to Wikiproject College Football by editors, bringing the total number of articles in the project to 4,415. The college football article Chris Jessie has been nominated for deletion. Editors are encouraged to visit the talk page and vote for or against the deletion. Administrators are cracking down on fair-use images, including logos, on college football articles. If you use a bowl game, team, conference, or other logo in your article, be sure to provide a fair use rationale on the image page. An article on the 2007 Rutgers Scarlet Knights football team is needed to complete coverage of Top 25 teams during the 2007 season. The 2007-2008 bowl season is wrapping up. Editors are encouraged to create and expand individual bowl game articles as well as base articles about the bowl games in general. 2006 Oklahoma Sooners football team failed its Featured Article Candidacy. Editors are encouraged to visit the talk page and help improve the article to Featured status. Several articles have open peer reviews, and editors are needed for comment. Consider visiting an open peer review and leaving comments. Aggie Bonfire, a Wikiproject College Football Featured Article, appeared on the front page of Wikipedia on December 22. 2006 Chick-fil-A Bowl, a Wikiproject College Football Featured Article, appeared on the front page of Wikipedia on December 31.	From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the latest issue of the College football WikiProject newsletter! I hope that you're enjoying regular updates about the goings on of college football on Wikipedia, but if not, feel free to add your name to the "no delivery" section on the newsletter signup page. I encourage everyone to make regular visits to the College Football Portal and perhaps make it your Wikipedia entry page instead of using the Main Page as your gateway. Nominations for selected articles and pictures are always welcome, and can serve as a great way to show off that new article you just shepherded to Good Article status or the great picture you took the last time you were at a game. Comments and suggestions on improving the newsletter are always welcome, and help me improve it on a monthly basis. Keep contributing and editing, and don't hesitate to contact me or post on the College Football Wikiproject talk page if you need help or just want someone to look over your article.

Hello fellow Wikipedia administrators open to recall category member!

I am leaving you this message because recent events have given me concern. When Aaron Brenneman and I, and others, first developed this category well over a year ago, we visualized it as a simple idea. A low hassle, low bureaucracy process. We also visualized it as a process that people would come to trust, in fact as a way of increasing trust in those admins who chose to subscribe to the notion of recall. The very informal approach to who is qualified to recall, what happens during it, and the process in general were all part of that approach. But recent events have suggested that this low structure approach may not be entirely effective. More than one of the recent recalls we have seen have been marred by controversy around what was going to happen, and when. Worse, they were marred by some folk having the perception, rightly or wrongly, that the admin being recalled was trying to change the rules, avoid the process, or in other ways somehow go back on their word. This is bad. It's bad for you the admin, bad for the trust in the process, and bad for the community as a whole. I think a way to address this issue is to increase the predictability of the process in advance. I have tried to do that for myself. In my User:Lar/Accountability page, I have given pretty concrete definitions of the criteria for recall, and of the choices I can make, and of the process for the petition, and of the process for other choices I might make (the modified RfC or the RfAr). I think it would be very helpful if other admins who have voluntarily made themselves subject to recall went to similar detail. It is not necessary to adopt the exact same conditions, steps, criteria, etc. It's just helpful to have SOME. Those are mine, fashion yours as you see fit, I would not be so presumptuous as to say mine are right for you. In fact I urge you not to just adopt mine, as I do change them from time to time without notice, but instead develop your own. You are very welcome to start with mine if you so wish, though. But do something. If you have not already, I urge you to make your process more concrete, now, while there is no pressure and you can think clearly about what you want. Do it now rather than later, during a recall when folk may not react well to perceived changes in process or commitment. Further, I suggest that after you document your process, that you give a reference to it for the benefit of other admins who may want to see what others have done. List it in this table as a resource for the benefit of all. If you use someone else's by reference rather than copy, I suggest you might want to do as Cacharoth did, and give a link to a specific version. Do you have to do these things? Not at all. These are suggestions from me, and me alone, and are entirely up to you to embrace or ignore. I just think that doing this now, thinking now, documenting now, will save you trouble later, if you should for whatever reason happen to be recalled. I apologise if this message seems impersonal, but with over 130 members in the category, leaving a personal message for each of you might not have been feasible, and I feel this is important enough to violate social norms a bit. I hope that's OK. Thanks for your time and consideration, and best wishes. Larry Pieniazek NOTE: You are receiving this message because you are listed in the Wikipedia administrators open to recall category. This is a voluntary category, and you should not be in it if you do not want to be.

...My guinea pigs and the "A"s through "K"s having felt this message was OK to go forward with (or at least not complained bitterly to me about it :) ), today it's the turn of the "L"s through "O"s! I'm hoping that more of you chaps/chapettes will point to their own criteria instead of mine :)... it's flattering but a bit scary! :) Also, you may want to check back to the table periodically, someone later than you in the alphabet may have come up with a nifty new idea. ++Lar: t/c 00:04, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. I'll accomodate the form and at the template on any future article. I appreciate that you moved the title without radically changing it. "1975 NCAA Division I football season" doesn't have the same ring to it. I've done some research on the Dickerson system rankings prior to the poll years, although these were only done at season's end. Professor Dickerson's system had a simple foundation, but he added variables for different sections of the country as well. Anyway, thanks for the additional pointers. Mandsford (talk) 23:57, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Shouldn't it be 1975 College football season instead of 1975 college football season? JKBrooks85 (talk) 17:30, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I looked at WP:CAPS and it said the second word should be lowercase unless its a proper noun. college is the second word and its not proper. I looked at several style guideline pages and this was the conclusion I came up with. If we're looking for precedence, take a look at 1st century.↔NMajdan•talk 17:37, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, okay. I was looking at "College" as being the first word in the title. Since you can't capitalize the year, I was looking at capitalizing College. To me, it just looks funny to be entirely in lower case, but if that's the style... JKBrooks85 (talk) 20:14, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I'll try and revert the changes I made yesterday. Hopefully I won't screw up things even more. JKBrooks85 (talk) 20:44, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I've opened a discussion on WT:CFB that may call for another name change. We'll see.↔NMajdan•talk 20:45, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I have warned Baseball Bugs that he is being destructive, that future such behavior could result in blocking, and that if he wishes to continue the matter that the proper venue should be RfC.[7] I support your plan to archive the talk page later today. Johntex\^talk 17:56, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Side comment. Baseball Bugs has in fact been in many confrontations on wikipedia. He tends to work in tandem with Wknight94. I'll stay out of this though because I have no interest in being a target of one of his attacks. UnclePaco (talk) 18:13, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Given the tone of many of his comments on the issue we were involved in, this doesn't surprise me.↔NMajdan•talk 18:20, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

As per your comment here [8]. The page is currently back on full protection until Jan 13. I'm requesting a month long full protection. After you unprotected, it went back to edit warring. UnclePaco (talk) 18:13, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

That's perfectly fine. I was never against the protection. I was going through pages on Special:Protectedpages looking for pages that did not have an end date and had been protected for a long time. This article was protected for five months. After looking at the edit history and the talk page, I didn't see any reason for it to be blocked. If the vandalism/edit warring resumed, by all means, protect it. I'm glad that it will only be protected for finite amount of time. I'm really against fully protecting articles for an indefinite period of time except in extreme cases. Thank you for letting me know.↔NMajdan•talk 18:20, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

well I was also asking you if could reprotect (fully) the article for at least a 2 month period. thanks UnclePaco (talk) 09:18, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Let me know what happens after the current protection expires.↔NMajdan•talk 12:59, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I like the new format, with years replacing the before and after box. Can we take it back to 1900? I wrote 1907 College Football Season (title needs correcting), but couldn't get it on to the list of seasons. Mandsford (talk) 01:11, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I'd add that I like the solution that you've crafted for the eras (NCAA Division I-A for 1978 onward, NCAA Division I for 1973-77, and NCAA before that time). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mandsford (talk • contribs) 01:45, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I'll try to research tomorrow and see how far back the NCAA goes. That template is technically only for NCAA football seasons, so that may need to be addressed.↔NMajdan•talk 03:01, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Good job creating the article! I'd been mulling doing it for a while, but laziness kept winning out. Good work. -steventity (talk) 23:16, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

So have I. The deciding factor was there was a lot of good content already on the University of Tulsa article so there wasn't much new content that was needed.↔NMajdan•talk 23:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh yeah, my next project is to write a short little article on the tennis center. There was an article about it in a recent TulsaPeople magazine that I'm going to use as a source.↔NMajdan•talk 00:50, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry if my rationale was unclear, I was on my way out the door when I wrote it. My main concern for substing and deleting the article is that content-containing templates are discouraged due to the high possibility of future GFDL violations. For example, imagine a time in the future when the template is nominated for deletion again, after many more changes have been made to the template. The debate is closed by another admin, who does not realize the GFDL issues. The template is deleted and the history is lost, therefore violating the GFDL. (Speaking of which, I just realized the template has over 300 revisions, so it needs to be restored, although I will mark it as historical to make sure it does not get deleted again.) Please do not continue to use this template due to the (wuite high) possibility it would fail in another TfD. RyanGerbil10(Говорить!) 18:03, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Over the past months, TV episodes have been reverted by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here [9]. --Maniwar (talk) 20:02, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello Nmajdan,

I recently nominated Iowa Hawkeyes football seasons for featured list status. Given that no votes or opinions have yet been expressed, I come to you (along with other CFB fans) in the hope that I get a little feedback. I am in no way asking for support votes, just general opinion. You are free to support or oppose as you like, I'm not going to lobby for votes my way. The nomination page is here, and I would greatly appreciate any vote or comment(s) that you have. Thank you. CrdHwk (talk) 04:38, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Could you take a look at 2007 ACC Championship Game and let me know if there's anything I need to change? It's up for FAC review right now, and any comments or support would be appreciated. Thanks! JKBrooks85 (talk) 21:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Why did you create but then deleted this template {{ReflistScroll}}? It would be very useful becasue it would greatly reduce the amount space taken up by Referece Lists so I was thinking about using it. I found about the {{ReflistScroll}} through here {ReflistScroll/doc}}

EconomistBR (talk) 07:40, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Here's the thing. I created it and was the only editor, so it was in my right to delete it. Only after creating it and implementing it, did I receive feedback from other editors on why this practice is and should be discouraged. ALL references should be visible on the page without having to scroll. I can't remember where this discussion took place but, in the end, I agreed with the consensus and deleted the template. References should not be hidden for any reason, which is what this template does.↔NMajdan•talk 17:51, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

I understand, in the Brazilian WIkipedia they have the {{ReflistScroll}} (you can see it being used at this page http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companhia_Vale_do_Rio_Doce ) but a girl complained that it makes hard for printing, still {{ReflistScroll}} made the page look way better and organized.

But I suppose that there is no chance of you re-creating the {{ReflistScroll}} then, right? EconomistBR (talk) 15:45, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

As I disagree with its usage, no, there is no chance I will re-create it. Also, according to my deletion description, it was already a recreation of a deleted template so recreating it may violate WP:CSD#G4.↔NMajdan•talk 18:12, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue III - February 2008
Project news After a discussion to establish consensus, the "importance" criteria in the College football project banner has been removed. Editors cited the fact that writers rarely use the criteria when improving articles, and that many articles lacked the criteria, causing unnecessary work. Editors are encouraged to watch the project talk page and Featured Article Candidates for potential College Football featured articles. Several featured articles have failed to make it past the nomination stage due to a lack of comments -- both positive and negative. Due to the fact that college football is a niche subject on Wikipedia, fewer editors are likely to comment on college football nominations, making it even more important for Wikiproject members to contribute. User:BetacommandBot adds College football project banners to over 10,000 articles, bringing the total number of articles in the project to nearly 15,000. Editors are now needed to assess uncategorized college football articles, and help has been requested on an as-available basis. Template:Infobox CollegeFB Bowl was deleted following a deletion discussion, and was replaced by {{NCAAFootballSingleGameHeader}}. The article Chris Jessee has been kept following a deletion discussion. The article 1906 Auburn Tigers football team was nominated for deletion and kept. This deletion discussion, in addition to the discussion for the 1902 LSU Tigers football team, provide a precedence for keeping stub-length single-season articles, even if those articles only consist of the team's schedule and results for that season. A hotly-debated discussion about the wording of team conference affiliations ended in agreement that teams "compete" in a conference if they fielded a team in that conference, regardless of the final standings. Partially owing to the addition of most NFL player articles to the project, more Good Article-class articles were added to Wikiproject College Football in January than in any other month in the project's history. Keep up the good work! With 45 Good Articles, this project now accounts for approximately 1.3% of all the good articles on Wikipedia!	From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the latest issue of the College football WikiProject newsletter! I hope that you're enjoying regular updates about the goings on of college football on Wikipedia, but if not, feel free to add your name to the "no delivery" section on the newsletter signup page. I encourage everyone to make regular visits to the College Football Portal and perhaps make it your Wikipedia entry page instead of using the Main Page as your gateway. Nominations for selected articles and pictures are always welcome, and can serve as a great way to show off that new article you just shepherded to Good Article status or the great picture you took the last time you were at a game. Comments and suggestions on improving the newsletter are always welcome, and help me improve it on a monthly basis. Keep contributing and editing, and don't hesitate to contact me or post on the College Football Wikiproject talk page if you need help or just want someone to look over your article.

Nmajdan, It makes sense that you are adding the College football games category to the Rose Bowl article. However, that category has a subcategory of Rose Bowl where all the games are collected. Is there a way to have the category on the articles, but not have all the Rose Bowl, Orange Bowl, and Fiesta bowl games that have their own category cluttering up the list? Thanks, Group29 (talk) 15:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, its just having an article in the Rose Bowl category may not imply it is a game. There are other articles in the Rose Bowl category that are not individual games. Individual games should be in the category. I personally don't think the Rose Bowl category (and Fiesta Bowl and whatever other Bowl category) should be in the CFB games category as not all of the articles in those categories are games. Am I making sense?↔NMajdan•talk 15:45, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I have thought the same thing about the mixture. Would it be better if there were a separate Rose Bowl games category? Then it could go in both the Rose Bowl category and college football games category. Group29 (talk) 16:48, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Might be best to take this convo to WT:CFB.↔NMajdan•talk 18:51, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Would you take a look at User:SatyrBot/Logs and the changes the bot made in my test run?

Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 23:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

It is marking articles as stubs that are not. Such as 1977 college football season, 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes football team. It also tagged some articles, such as 2002 Sugar Bowl, as stub that, while they are stubs, do not have a stub template (so how is it basing this decision to mark as stub?).↔NMajdan•talk 14:12, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

It's guessing. If it finds a FA, GA, or Stub template, it labels it a stub. If it doesn't find any of those, it looks at what other banners are on the page and averages. If there's no indication at all, it labels a stub.

I should probably only guess if there are other project banners, though, and if there aren't I should leave it empty? -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 14:33, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Wait, if it finds an FA, GA or Stub template, it marks it a stub? Shouldn't it only mark it as a stub if it finds a stub template? I can't imagine a scenario where an FA or GA would be a stub. Or are you saying if it finds an FA or GA template it marks it FA or GA class, respectively? If it finds other banners, averaging is fine. If it finds no banners, no stub templates, no other indication, then leave it blank.↔NMajdan•talk 15:18, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

ROTFL! My bad - if it finds a FA, GA, or Stub template, it labels the article appropriately :) I'll change it to leave it blank if there are no indications at all and will run another test of 10 or so. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 15:25, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I figured that was a typo. Thanks. I'll review again when done.↔NMajdan•talk 15:27, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Ran another test. See User:SatyrBot/Logs. The last run was good, ignoring appropriately, updating when necessary. The next-to last seems to have only added a space after 'class=', but I've fixed that run.

If it looks good, I'll go ahead and run the bot to check all 14,700+ articles that have the template. It will report which ones it ignores and which one it changes the banner. It won't report on ones that are already rated.

Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 21:32, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I need to do a more thorough check tomorrow, but how did it know to assess 2005 Sun Bowl as a stub? Sorry if I'm being picky, but after it runs through thousands of unranked articles, if 2% are wrong, that's a lot of manual cleanup. I do really appreciate your work and I can't wait to get this straightened out.↔NMajdan•talk 03:28, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Hm. Because there were other project banners on the page, and the average rating of the other banners was zero - a stub. I can probably adjust that so that there's "at least one rating" rather than "at least one banner". Let me know. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 07:43, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, do that. An article could very easily be start or B quality and simply unassessed by a project.↔NMajdan•talk 22:18, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

K - code changed so that at least one project *rating* needs to exist before the bot will guess based on that. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 14:05, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok. Great.↔NMajdan•talk 22:08, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Shall I go ahead and run the bot on all articles? -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 22:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes.↔NMajdan•talk 02:48, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

(outdent)Y Bot's done. It didn't write the report that I wanted, but you can see all the changes it made through its Special:Contributions. Let me know what you think and/or if anything got missed? Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 18:00, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:DialAmericaMarketing logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 19:37, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Yes I was/am trying to add the statistics section to most 2008 team articles. Even though it's 7 months away, there are lots of articles to get ready for the 2008-2009 season. I was not aware that some teams don't use statistics. Is this a problem? Rocketmaniac ^RT 03:37, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

I am just trying to get ready for the 2008-2009 season. I was under the impression that these were just standard statistics that could be found on websites such as yahoo sports, espn.com etc and therefore used on all articles. Which teams (articles) do you think are not going to use these statistics? I have no desire to do a ton of work that will just be deleted, but at the same time I have no problem doing work that will benefit Wikipedia. Please give me your thoughts. Rocketmaniac ^RT 04:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Doh! You should have kicked me ages ago! I set it up and assumed it was running - forgot to do that thing called testing! Anyway, it's up and running now. Take a look at: Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/To do list short. That page will be updated weekly on Thursdays. Also take a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/To do full list. That page isn't updated - it's a transclusion of six or seven other subpages that *are* updated.

Let me know if you have any questions or if it doesn't update next week. Thanks - and sorry for the delay!!! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 03:10, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I saw that you were the admin that unprotected St. John's University (New York City) back in December 2007. It seems that some anons are back to prove their point, and edit warring has once again ensued. There may be a need to semi-protect (at least temporarily) this article again, seeing as not everyone seems to agree to consensus-building via the Talk Page. ~ Homologeo (talk) 18:43, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Over the last few weeks, I've been putting together a style guide for the most common types of college football articles on Wikipedia. I was wondering if you could take a look at what I've got so far and give some input on what's been written. Right now, I'm starting to work on the recommended layouts of each article type, and it's an area where I could use some help. I was wondering if you'd be willing to write a few tips and tricks about single-team season articles, seeing that you've written quite a few during your editing career. Any contribution would be extremely helpful. JKBrooks85 (talk) 23:29, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Please read the "Edit Warning" section of Talk:St. John's University (New York City) and consider reverting to the other version of the St. John' s article while the protection is in place. The version currently protected is the product of one individual going against the majority opinnion regarding format, and is inherently bias and negative. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.240.101.148 (talk) 04:05, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue IV - March 2008
Project news SatyrBot is now delivering weekly updates to the Wikiproject College Football to-do list. Have a few minutes, but don't want to start a whole new article? Check out the to-do list and knock one or two items off. If everyone pitches in, it'll go a long way towards making Wikiproject College Football the best source for college football information on the Internet. Gwguffey has created a series of navigation boxes for college football stadiums for every state in the United States. If you're creating an article about a new stadium or updating a current article about a stadium, be sure to include one. It'll make the page more useful to readers, and they look darn nice, too. SatyrBot assessed approximately 4,300 previously-unassessed college football articles. There are still over 1,500 unassessed articles out there, so if you get a chance, feel free to lend a hand. If it becomes necessary to use an archaic name for a university, link to the modern name and/or Wikipedia page. Example: Virginia Polytechnic Institute. This is particularly common in articles dealing with subjects prior to the separation of NCAA divisions in the 1970s. (Discussion) A motion to create a Wikiproject High School Football has been brought up on the talk page. Editors are reminded that any template that automatically includes a fair-use image (such as a university logo) will be automatically deleted by Wikipedia. Instead, create a general template that asks the user to select the logo rather than automatically including the logo inside the template.

A tag has been placed on Template:CFbtasks requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).
