College basketball teams' seasons

I see where you're quickly creating lots of college basketball teams' season articles, especially older teams like Princeton. Just so more work doesn't need to be done than necessary, please refer to Category:College men's basketball seasons in the United States for the correct categorization of where these articles should be placed. I know you're not intentionally placing them in NCAA season categories that don't exist, but they don't exist for a reason. The naming conventions of the seasons is historically accurate (as explained in the category's description). Since I have a feeling you're not quite through making college basketball team seasons (sarcasm :)), I figured you should be aware of the categories' names. Gracias.

Re:Featured Topic credit

The topic was already recognised. You can claim points for the articles themselves, but you cannot claim points for the topic all over again. I understand what has happened, I understand the situation- you cannot claim. J Milburn (talk) 11:29, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hugh Culverhouse Nomination

Thanks for reviewing my Hugh Culverhouse GAN; but couldn't it have been put on hold to address easily-fixable issues, rather than quickfailing it? It took about six weeks for it to roll up the list to get to the point of being reviewed; why send it through that whole process again when the things you're asking for can be done in a couple of days? I feel that this is somewhat disrespectful toward the amount of work that went into the article, and is in violation of the Wikipedia reviewing guideline of providing solutions instead of problems.

BTW, as to your suggestion of an infobox, there doesn't seem to be an infobox template for team owners. I looked at the GA list, and there are no team owners in that list. The few owners that have infoboxes use the infobox:person template. Is this what you want? (And, this is part of the problem with the quickfail: it leaves no room for questions or clarification, so all I can do is go through the process again, and then I still have to get the clarification from whoever reviews the article at that time. Why not just take care of it now, while it's on your plate?) Dementia13 (talk) 05:11, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your response; major or not, the problems you've addressed can be fixed in a couple of hours' worth of work. The lead can be rewritten relatively quickly, the links at the end (which I believe once referred to something in the article, but no longer do) can be deleted, and an infobox can be written in short time. I'm not sure what you mean about the "rough" links, and images are not going to happen (I've searched for far too many hours, and unfortunately, Mr. Culverhouse died before there was a Flickr. The only way to get a picture of him is to buy one from Getty or a newspaper. I even tried Federal sources, since he was briefly an Ambassador, but our government's commitment to making such photos public is sadly lacking.) If there's, as you imply, a whole mountain of issues behind those, I would like more specifics as to what they are. I feel that this is very "pass the buck" of you.

Submitting multi-article DYKs

Hi, thanks for combining your DYK nominations into multiples, but please review the correct way to nominate multiple articles at Template:NewDYKnomination/guide, especially the "ARTICLES" section. If this is not done correctly, you may not receive proper credit for your nominations. I've just fixed eight of your submissions for a total of 21 articles.
