cc photos on flickr

hi there, i don't do baseball but while browsing for nba photos on flickr i came across this set which you guys might find useful... i think they should all be cc-compliant. apologies if you guys have already come across this before. Chensiyuan (talk) 04:13, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

The photo sets do appear to be licensed CC-BY-SA, which is compatible with Wikipedia. Resolute 15:16, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Since they are safe, can they be added to the article? It would be helpful to do so. Thank you. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 15:43, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I can do that fairly easily. Got any preferences as to which images should be added? A good Halladay image, naturally, probably only one or two more for this article to keep it balanced. Some of those would be pretty good for player articles. Resolute 02:50, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Uniform Picture

The "T" cap is now the official road cap, so the picture should be changed accordingly. Also, since when do the Blue Jays have stirrup style socks? I think this should be changed as well. 99.234.145.123 (talk) 00:46, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I agree that the road cap should change. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 15:47, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Nationality of Players

Main page: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Baseball#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)

Retro Uniforms

Are the Blue Jays going to use their baby blue retro uniforms this year? I really liked the uniforms - they are a lot better than the ones they normally use. Reverend Edward Brain, D.D. (talk) 21:02, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Page Error

Can we fix the roster section?24.233.183.37 (talk) 15:29, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Fixed. It was actually a template that was broken. Thanks for the notice! Resolute 15:51, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

The ongoing dispute about sourcing the 2012 colors

I'm just going to jump in and question exactly why it is so important to include a source from a blog for the team colors. Especially when there is already a source for colors that is not in dispute. You're both getting perilously closet to 3RR. Echoedmyron (talk) 20:15, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

Why can they not use a news source from either mainstream news or sports news? Either of those are much more acceptable. Johnny Au _{(talk/contributions)} 03:03, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

I cited the blog cause it's specialty graphic design but that specializes in sports logos. It's a trusted source of colors on Chris Creamer's Sports Logos which I've seen used as a source before. I trust the blog to be accurate and am pretty certain that it would meet reliability guidelines. However, after stepping back for a second. I realize I'm being point-y and would like to drop my argument. However still, I'd like to start a discussion on WT:MLB about the reliability of this blog for future instances. As for the order of the colors, I'd like to see the Blues listed first as they're the prominent colors. Best, CRRaysHead90 | ^{We Believe!} 22:38, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

I've fully protected this page and Miami Marlins indefinitely per the ongoing edit warring. I remind editors that page protection is not endorsement of the current revision, and that all editors are obliged to endorse their changes by establishing a level of mutual agreement. WilliamH (talk) 22:46, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

For the Miami Marlins, I originally supplied the team's official release. It got reverted in favor of a blog not related to the team or MLB. JaMikePA (talk) 16:15, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
