[edit] split article - History of the Chicago White Sox

I propose a separate history page. Anyone else second me on this?--Levineps (talk) 15:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

I will ... the organization has a 100+ year history, and even trimming it (I think there is too much weight given to the last five-ten years, good years they have been) leaves a history section that really eats up the article. Reading and editing have become cumbersome activities. LonelyBeacon (talk) 15:45, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 1900 Pennant shouldn't be counted where it is

It says "Major league titles" which the 1900 AL Pennant is not. It doesn't make sense to have that listed there. For that matter, neither should the Western League pennant. Not trying to be a jerk; I just don't think it's very accurate. Richjenkin (talk) 14:46, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Retired Numbers Section

Those colors and stylization makes it difficult to read, and the colors are far from the team colors. Any reasoning to this? I'll check back on this discussion and if no one else opines, then I'll change it to a more neutral palette and style.--75.34.183.204 (talk) 05:22, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Alternate shirts, 2010 season

It seems like they have been wearing their alternate shirts a lot more often this year than either their home or away shirts. Anybody know why? Tad Lincoln (talk) 01:35, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure why they've done that this year. It begs the question whether black road pants are far behind!--Factchk (talk) 17:27, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

[edit] White Socks in the the 70s.

I was surprised that the section of the Sox uniforms did not include the fact that Bill Veeck brought back the white socks for a few seasons. I though this merited inclusion. [1].--Factchk (talk) 17:26, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Nationality of Players

Given the fact that baseball is becoming an increasingly more international sport (i.e., more non-U.S. leagues in existence, more non-U.S. players in the MLB), the roster formatting on Wikipedia should probably be updated to reflect that. If you look at the formatting for other international sports (such as soccer), the player nationalities are indicated using flag icons. I think this would be a beneficial update to each of the major league rosters in the MLB, it would not be too difficult to implement and it would not clutter the information on the page. However, before such change a change is implemented, I thought it would be healthy to achieve at least some form of consensus on the talk page for each team. yuristache (talk) 01:10, July 24, 2010 (UTC)
