Unfortunately, I will be deleting this nomination, per this. Feel free to renominate when your first FLC is promoted/archived. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:13, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of New York Yankees coaches/archive1 too (I left the DHL Delivery Award FLC up). Please keep your active nominations to one at a time in the near future, as we don't have enough reviewer resources to keep up otherwise. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:20, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
- I understand. I'll try to see if I can make some time to review in the meantime. --Muboshgu (talk) 15:22, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
2008 Election
Hey. I need a third party opinion on the article regarding the presidential election in California. Please go on the talk page on the last section and share your opinion. Thanks.--Jerzeykydd (talk) 13:08, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, I'll take a look. --Muboshgu (talk) 15:21, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!
...for helping revert vandalism at the Joba Chamberlain page just now. Those two IP addresses were teaming up to wreck the page, and when they do the edits fast like that its hard to get back to a clean version. Again, much obliged! Jusdafax 01:48, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
- No problem, I'm happy to help revert vandalism. Especially as a Yankee fan, it's good to have these pages watched. BTW I just requested semi-protection for Joba's page. --Muboshgu (talk) 01:50, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
Lasorda's Kingman rant
I noticed something interesting about the Tommy Lasorda Kingman rant, and brought it up for discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Baseball. I think you might want in on this discussion.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 20:31, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
Members of Baseball Hall of Fame
Most of the other lists are in YYYY-MM-DD format, and there's nothing wrong with that particular format. I don't mind going through and changing the others when it's all said and done. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 23:31, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
Derek Jeter
Tvoz has never edited Derek Jeter. Just because he was mad at my Obama family article, he has followed me to Jeter's article and took out my changes. This is called "wikihounding" and is prohibted by WP:HOUND. PresChicago (talk) 03:38, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
- That's a pretty powerful accusation. If it's true, you should take it up with him. All I know is that the sources all say "Germany" and not "West Germany" so that's what we go with. --Muboshgu (talk) 14:59, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
Protection
If you file a request I'd support it, but I think we should wait and see how concerted it is. Staxringold talkcontribs 04:07, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Your wording is an opinion. Wikipedia articles should not be opinionated on who is the best and who isn't. You're wrong and the wording is inferior so please stop changing it. -- DragonLair04 (talk) 05:42, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
- No, YOU'RE wrong. That statement is cited not only in the lead, but in great detail in the "Legacy" section of the article by a multitude of sources from the sports world. Find me a single respectable sports writer who doesn't consider Rivera one of the best relievers ever. Statistically, he ranks among the best pitchers ever, not just relievers. He holds a ridiculous amount of records - how is it incorrect to say "he has become one of the best closers ever"? I'll tell you what, once you've made more than 10 edits at Wikipedia or you've gotten an article through the WP:FAC process, maybe then you can start drastically changing articles around like that. As it stands, I would recommend you stop before we issue warnings. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 07:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Hmm, it seems like we may have some sockpuppetry going on here. You think warnings faze me? I'll just warn you back and we'll let the admins handle this. It's not your article and because it's on Wikipedia, you don't get to decide who can edit the articles and who can't. If you can't understand that basic concept, I suggest you leave. DragonLair04 (talk) 04:18, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- I'm an admin, you're a troll. It's a well-sourced fact that Rivera is universally considered great and nearly universally considered the greatest ever (I'm actually a huge Mariano fan but say Hoyt Wilhelm has a case as a greater reliever). Staxringold talkcontribs 05:18, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- Like I said before - find me respectable sports writers that don't consider Rivera to be among the best relievers ever (if not the best ever, which is not what the statement in the article says). Find me any popular opinion that begs to differ that Rivera is not among the best relievers ever. You know why you won't be able to do that? Because such dissent doesn't exist - Rivera holds dozens of records, among both starting and relief pitchers. And generally, when that happens, you are likely to be considered one of the best in your field. It's not uncommon either for the lead in a baseball article to qualify how good a player is (e.g. Babe Ruth - "regarded as one of the greatest sports heroes in American culture" ... "he has been named the greatest baseball player in history in various surveys and rankings"). If you continue to subvert the quality of an article that reached FA status (and went through 2 stringent nomination processes), we'll make sure an administrator deals with you. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 05:26, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- I'd say consensus has spoken. --Muboshgu (talk) 11:39, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter if the entire world thinks Mariano Rivera is the greatest, it's still an opinion and you're writing it as a fact. Whoever passed it through to FA status clearly didn't read that part or is so biased they don't realize what an opinionated sounding article is. I'm gonna continue to challenge this regardless of what you three Yankee nuts think until it gets corrected...DragonLair04 (talk) 04:49, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

- Really? A newbie editor with no more than 20 edits is threatening experienced editors who obviously know more about what they're doing? Now I've seen everything. You didn't even bother to address a single point I mentioned and therefore don't care about what anyone else thinks, so why should we listen to a word you have to say? If you can't be bothered to participate in civilized discussion, lower your expectations for how people will act towards you. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 05:26, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- Now you're just lying. I did address what you said and you failed to read it. Poor edits over a long period of time doesn't make you experienced in anything, except lowering the quality of articles on Wikipedia. Congratulations. You're doing well in that regard.DragonLair04 (talk) 22:01, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- You haven't made single worthwhile contribution, yet you act like you are some kind of expert. And if you haven't noticed, no one agrees with you. Try contributing to something or getting an article to FAC before coming in here and acting like a knowitall. Last warning. Y2kcrazyjoker4 (talk) 06:23, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
Dang, I was planning on writing this article soon having seen KV5's Phillies one, and I go and see you already have! when are you going to FLC this baby, looks to be FL quality? Staxringold talkcontribs 18:04, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- I was going to, but then they slowed down the nominating process due to the backlog and I stuck with the DHL Delivery Man Award FLC. Now that that's passed, I could either nominate this or another from that baseball awards featured topic. I forgot to see what's up next. --Muboshgu (talk) 18:16, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- All we've got left are MVP and List of WS Champs. I'm thinking I'll work on WS champs next if you want to give MVP at least a start. But yeah, this list is practically done, just copy the lead sentence and ref from the Phillies list on how compensatory picks work and rework that paragraph and it's basically done. Staxringold talkcontribs 18:22, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the suggestions. I followed them and relisted the FLC. I'll get to work on the MVP article next. --Muboshgu (talk) 18:40, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Heh, is User:Eposty an alt of yours? As soon as we chatted about this he started formatting en masse. Staxringold talkcontribs 20:17, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Minor league players
Hi, I saw you were doing some work on Minor league players today, prodding, cleanup etc. This list may interest you (or not).--kelapstick (talk) 19:22, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- That does, thanks. I've been looking through Rule 5 draft results and have noticed pages for some people who really don't meet notability guidelines. Some, like Andy Graham (baseball) had the consensus to merge, but noone ever merged them. I'll take a look at that list and see what else there is to be done. --Muboshgu (talk) 19:25, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sounds good, I got tired of sorting it out once I finished the A+ group. If you see anything that is wrong on the list, I would appreciate you correcting it, also feel free to add to it if you want, Fabrictramp (talk · contribs) (among others) and I were using it as a consolidated location to keep everything, so we weren't working on our own seperate lists. Cheers.--kelapstick (talk) 19:29, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

- A lot of information, but not any that establishes notability according to WP:BASEBALL standards. --Muboshgu (talk) 02:07, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- Hey.. when you afd these things, could you add them to Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Baseball.. a lot of us check that page and it's easier to spot the articles that are up for deletion that way. Spanneraol (talk) 22:03, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Deletion
Hello, I just wanted to discuss many of the articles you have been nominating for deletion. I feel that they are becoming a bit much. In every case I looked at I could establish notability with WP:WPBB/N. I just wanted to bring this to you attention. To see what i'm talking about see, here and here. Oh and also your comment here about if he had been sent back to the Reds, the answer is yes. I found it here. Thanks. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 21:54, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I will look at them on a case by case basis as you have commented on them. And thanks for the info on Young, I saw that his MLB page lists him as a member of the Reds but it seemed possibly outdated.--Muboshgu (talk) 02:06, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- I just feel they shouldn't have been AfD in the first place. They meet WP:ATHLETE and WP:WPBB/N standards so I find it deconstructive to go about deleting MiLB players. I could be looking at this all wrong, some pages are lacking in references so is that it, or could there be a guideline I'm missing? Thanks. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 17:21, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- The general consensus among WP:BASEBALL, though not fully fleshed out in writing, is that all MLB players are notable, while minor leaguers are not inherently notable. There has to be something noteworthy about them aside from playing minor league ball (such as being a highly touted prospect, or playing internationally). --Muboshgu (talk) 00:31, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Do you have an example of this consensus? --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 02:13, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- I dont have an example but a couple of months ago the user Gjr rodriguez created a bunch of minor league players and it was decided that most of those that he created would be deleted because they were not notable.--Yankees10 02:28, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- I can try to pull up some of the conversation we've had. Certainly creating a page for every single minor league player is overkill. --Muboshgu (talk) 02:40, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, but I think that should be established in writing before deleting pages. I don't see anyone rushing to create MiLB players, but I do see people deleting them. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 03:27, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism
Webster's definition of vandalism is as so: (n) a person who destroys who destroys property for the pleasure of destruction. Wikipedia defines it as: any addition, removal, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia. My updating of the silver slugger awards given to Derek Jeter do not fit into these definitions. Next time, understand what you are doing or saying in order to prevent libel and slander. Also, check a fact that you do not believe is accurate before arbitrarily dismissing something as not being a fact. Last time I checked this was an encyclopedia for everyone, not an autocratic, bronze star editor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Att109 (talk • contribs) 00:01, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Jason Marquis
Hi. 2 things. The stats didn't bother me, but I think I saw a discussion re deletion of stats, and if that is the consensus, that's fine. You just might take a look at other pages, as I expect a few others have them, and we should be consistent if deletion is in fact the consensus. Second, you left in his minor league stats. Did the consensus relate to that as well? Tx.--Epeefleche (talk) 20:53, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
- It has been decided amongst a number of us that there is no good reason to post all of a players stats, when the links to BR, cube, fangraphs, etc. are all listed at the bottom of the page. Wikipedia isn't meant to be a stat sheet. Lots of pages still have the stats there and I remove them when I come across them, but I don't have the time or energy to go through every single page looking for them. Thanks for mentioning the minor league stats, I hadn't noticed them there. --Muboshgu (talk) 20:57, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Javier Vazquez
Has been traded to the Yankees. It is confirmed all over the web my all major sports news sites. ie: ESPN, Fox, SI, etc. I referenced the article. Whats the prob with the changes I've made?
- The trade is not official, and might fall through. The trade of Mike Lowell just fell through the other day. We can mention the trade in prose (which we have), but we don't change the infobox until the trade is completed. Thank you. --Muboshgu (talk) 17:35, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Jason Bay Deletion
Hey, dude, you think I'm typing up BS about Bay's signing with the Mets, saying it's not official, well it is official, look around. I think you owe me an apology.
- I do not owe you an apology. It's true that it's being reported, but it's also true that it's not official, and that it might fall through. The editors who are members of the Baseball project have established as a guideline that we do not change the player's team affiliation until it is official. The Jason Bay signing is not official. So please stop editing this article, or else you will be blocked as a vandal. Thank you.--Muboshgu (talk) 20:14, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

You identified the Jason Bay undo as vandalism. It was not vandalism. Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia.

curtis painter
I don't understand why it is "vandalism" to add that Curtis Painter's fumble ended the Colts' perfect season. That is the only reason anyone cares about Painter. And besides, it IS cited as the title of the article cited is "Painter fumble ends Colts' Perfect Season.". Please explain to me why this worthy of an edit? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.250.86.26 (talk) 20:59, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- I feel that while Painter's fumble did contribute to their loss, but we have to be careful with the way it sounds. The way it's been put in the article, it blames Painter for the Colts not going 16-0. However, Painter is hardly to blame, as most (if not all) of the Colts' starters were on the bench. It is undue weight in Painter's case only because the quarterback is more visible than the offensive linemen who failed to block the defensive linemen properly. Also, the recency of the event is making it seem a bigger deal than it really is. Does it really matter that the Colts didn't play with 100% of what they have, considering they went 14-2 for the season and are in the AFC championship game? --Muboshgu (talk) 19:45, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Infoboxes
You need to consult the editors of the Senate articles before you can get rid of them. Not to mention, what you did wasn't necessary considering the fact that it can be used to link to the previous election (2004).--Jerzeykydd (talk) 20:38, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- We had this discussion during the 2008 election. I'll have to dig it up later. The whole point of the infobox is to show the party nominees and the results. We have none of that information at this time (except the nominees in Illinois). As for the link to the 2004 election, it's contained in the state election templates that are already on the page. Furthermore, there's a policy on Wikipedia of being bold as a method of making changes. --Muboshgu (talk) 20:40, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- That, and I am one of the editors of those articles. I don't remember seeing anyone ask for consensus for adding those in the first place. --Muboshgu (talk) 20:42, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- What's happening with this? The infoboxes really don't make any sense at all before the primary, and even then don't make much sense until after the election. At least not for individuals—there's nothing wrong with the ones at the main House and Senate election pages because they actual convey information such as the party leaders and previous election results. -Rrius (talk) 21:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- My point exactly. I'm going to continue to remove them from the individual Senate election pages later today, though I'll leave the Illinois one up, unless you want that down too. --Muboshgu (talk) 12:36, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- After the Pennsylvania primary, May 18, 2010, we will know who the two major party candidates are going to be for United States Senate election in Pennsylvania, 2010, and we might know who some of the minor party candidates may be, too, since some of them may have filed nominating papers by then. At that point, is the Infobox we are discussing useful, or not? I am unsure, so I am asking for more information from other editors here. --DThomsen8 (talk) 16:49, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

If we have rivaling consensuses then we have rivaling consensuses. Either way, I don't like your edits with the unnecessary headlines, and other things you've added.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 00:00, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- It would be good if we could find that to have a full and thorough debate. My other edits, aside from removing the teams and awards/honors from the infoboxes, may not have been the highest quality. I was killing a little time at work. Any ways to improve them are of course appreciated. --Muboshgu (talk) 02:15, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Again, it wouldn't surprise me if this topic has been debated more than once, and there exist rivaling consensuses. I suppose we could pose the question again.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 09:29, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Do tell... Why did you revert those edits? I put it exactly the way it was discussed it should be. Check Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Baseball, we just finished having a discussion about it. --Johnny Spasm (talk) 17:54, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Do Wikipedia administrators get paid for their services or do they actually hold down a real job? I've noticed that Wikipedia administrators make something like 50 - 100 edits and contributions every single day. Where do they find the time to do this? It's like they start editing articles at 3:00 A.M. and don't stop until 11:00 P.M. that night. I've also noticed that they will edit articles if it doesn't conform to "their" standards or satisfaction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.213.67.149 (talk) 21:41, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
