Thanks for helping out and creating all those CFL team uniform pictures. Jimbö^V1 (talk) 04:34, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Seconded. I only wish you had spelled "colour" in Canadian English but thanks for the nice work on the uni's. DoubleBlue (talk) 18:26, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Awesome work on the Riders uniforms. However, with their alternates (not their retro week) uniforms, the helmet logo is the "Safeway" S. If you need a copy of that logo to add, let me know. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 09:11, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Are you talking about the 2009 jerseys? They haven't used the Safeway logo all year; they used either the regular logo or that football-ribbon-wheat logo. Cmm3 (talk) 19:55, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

An Invite to join Saskatchewan WikiProject

Hi, you are graciously extended an invitation to join the Saskatchewan WikiProject! The Saskatchewan WikiProject is a fairly new WikiProject. We are a group of editors who are dedicated to creating, revising, and expanding articles, lists, categories, and Wikiprojects, to do with anything Saskatchewan.

As you have shown an interest in 1966 Saskatchewan Roughriders season we thought you might like to take an interest in this growing WikiProject.

Please assist with any ongoing requests

You might like to take an extra interest in our To Do list

Another project dedicated to Saskatchewan is the Saskatchewan Roads and Highways Wikiproject

Also, a descendant project for Saskatchewan is the WikiProject Saskatchewan Communities & Neighbourhoods

We look forward to welcoming you to the project! SriMesh | talk 00:29, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey

Thanks for helping out with the roster templates. However, can you also update the corresponding roster navbox (i.e. Template:Edmonton Eskimos roster navbox) so that I don't have to go through and make the same changes you already made in one place. Thanks again!--Giants27(c|s) 13:14, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Template:Saskatchewan Roughriders roster

I noticed you reverted some of the edits I had made to the Template. My guess is you were following the Riderville roster as opposed to the CFL transactions page. Unfortunately, trying to follow the roster on the Riderville page, is like trying to use a map of Berlin from 20 years ago, very outdated. Kent Smith was added to the Riders roster on November 6, Vaalyn Jackson and Marcus Thigpen were added to the Active roster shortly there after. It's probably best practice to generally follow the CFL transaction page, as I had emailed the webmaster a few years ago and apparently the roster reflects the wishes of the coaching staff, not the actual roster. The CFL transaction log instead reflects whatever paperwork crosses the CFL head office's "desk" every day. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 21:01, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Hamilton

If you do any more Grey Cup (or other CFL-related) articles, could you please note that the Canadian city's article is located at Hamilton, Ontario, and not just at the plain title Hamilton? Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 02:23, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of 2012 CFL season

I have nominated 2012 CFL season, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2012 CFL season. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. 2 says you, says two 23:11, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Shawn Gore

The article Shawn Gore has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

At present, the subject's career is non notable.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Stormbay (talk) 04:11, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Foolish Fool! Soon Gore will be signed by the BC Lions and your mad quest for deletion will go unfounded, fufufu... Cmm3 (talk) 05:39, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I am certainly not looking for deletion. (I watched Shawn on pre-season with the Packers and he looked talented). The prod indicated a non notable career to date. I believe that assessment is accurate. The BC Lions could use some help...all of that is in the future (crystal ball) and cannot be considered part of a pro career until it occurs. I do look forward to being proven a Foolish Fool! as you so eloquently phrase my actions. Happy editing! --Stormbay (talk) 14:19, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm definitely eloquent, that's for sure, haha. Cmm3 (talk) 19:25, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Saskatchewan Huskies Uniforms

Hey nice work on the uniform picture for the Huskies. I'm not sure how you go about pants/jersey combinations for those pictures. But last night the Huskies wore white pants with their away jerseys. So that was an alternate look compared to the season opener in Calgary. Also, last night the Huskies wore their alternate helmet. It was also worn with their retro uniforms at their home opener. Here's a link to the look. I'm not a Photoshop wizard (nor do I own it) so I was hoping you'd be able to add that to the picture. If not, not a big deal. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 01:05, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

WHOA, those are some slick helmets, they should wear them all the time. As for how I determine the pants/jersey combinations, I go by what the majority look is. For example, last year, the huskies wore their white jerseys with black pants three times and with white pants one time. Thus, I depicted the look as white on black. Do you know if they're wearing their retro uniforms again this season? If not, I may as well update it now. Cmm3 (talk) 05:07, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Nope, those lids should've been dumped in the ditch on the way back from Regina. Their two blowouts this year were both wearing those lids. From what I hear, they will be mothballed until possibly the playoffs. Next home game, they will wear their blacks. I imagine they will wear their regular home uniforms the rest of the regular season. As for pants, I'm not entirely sure what the plans are. We'll see if they go all white again or not. I'm heading to the game in Edmonton, so I will let you know. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 01:02, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Haha, that and they look like a knock off of the New York Jets. And thanks for the info, I appreciate it. Cmm3 (talk) 02:22, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

File:CIS_UofS_Jersey.png

I agree that the reduced version of the image File:CIS_UofS_Jersey.png does not have much clarity, but this image must be rescaled to meet WP:NFCC. If the current version does not look good, can you please upload a better image whose size does not exceed 350 pixels for both width and height. --Sreejith K (talk) 06:01, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

You're going to have to help me understand this, because I don't see a difference: How can this file be allowed to stand, thumb, and the file I created be reduced to a minuscule 350 pixels? They both use the same licensing. And where in the WP:NFCC does it say 350 pixels? This completely defeats the purpose of being able to see the intricacies of the jersey.

I agree to the point that rescaling the image is impossible without compromising the image quality. However, we can convert the image to SVG format and keep the clarity intact. I have recommended converting both the images to SVG.

The second image will also not stand as per WP:NFCC. It has to be rescaled too. The guidelines does not say 350, it was my recommendation for this image in particular to meet the standards. 350 does not hold good for the second image; it has to be at least 450 to keep it any useful. --Sreejith K (talk) 06:44, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
