Removal of offseason/free agency in 2024 Commanders season article

Hello fellow fan. I see that you removed the Offseason section from the 2024 Commanders season article and tagged WP:INDISCRIMINATE to justify the removal. I'm curious as to how the tables in the 2024 Baltimore Ravens season can remain if this is the case. This also applies to past seasons with the Ravens, 49ers, and Chiefs where player additions and departures are recorded and sourced, within similar tables I inputted for the Commanders, in their respective articles. Would this not provide more in-depth coverage of the 2024 Commanders season if offseason player movement was recorded and credibly sourced? Vataxevader (talk) 23:39, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late response. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is why other team pages include it. I simply don't have time to maintain 32 pages in addition to fixing all previous seasons as well. My issue isn't with it being sourced, it's how much of it is important enough to cover since some editors could cite and add every single transaction. If WP:NFL could come up with some written guidelines, it would help a ton. Maybe I could present something in the next few days. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 15:31, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop

Stop removing "career" from the "College career" headings please. This has literally been the standard for years, not sure why you are removing it all of the sudden. Yankees10 23:20, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Career" implies a relation to a profession, occupation, trade, or vocation, not amateur sports that can only be played by students. I'll stop removing them since NILs have blurred the line on the amateur part. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 15:25, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you always act as if the NAVGTR Awards never existed?

In the Sea of Stars article, I wrote that the game was nominated for "Gameplay Design, New IP" and "Game, Original Role Playing" at the NAVGTR Awards, as shown in the link here, but you always remove the evidence by claiming that the NAGVTR Awards are "not notable"! You always act as if the NAVGTR Awards never existed! If that's the case, then I suppose you'll want to remove the "NAVGTR Awards" section from the Video game award, since you claim that the NAVGTR Awards are not notable, so you'll wipe out all evidence of its video game nominations and winners through the years! You never care about the NAVGTR Awards' existence at all! --Angeldeb82 (talk) 16:35, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Angeldeb82 WP:VG/AWARDS, part of the manual of style, says to exclude awards from non-notable shows. This isn't about recognizing the existence of NAVGTR, but about the fact that NAVGTR is not a notable topic on Wikipedia per WP:N/WP:GNG. Please try not to be so defensive on behalf of a organization. -- ferret (talk) 16:42, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So that's it? Should I remove all the NAVGTR Awards nominations from all video game articles, including Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical? Angeldeb82 (talk) 16:58, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
From tables, yes. They can remain in prose per WP:VG/AWARDS. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 18:52, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. BTW, Bringingthewood removed the awards from prose for no reason, so I restored them to prose again. Angeldeb82 (talk) 04:37, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Out of context

Hello, D93. Just didn't want you to take what I said in that edit summary, (J.J), out of context. This has been bothering me. I wanted to get the point across that your name should be the correct spelling. Don't poke the bear etc. Not that I had a gripe over a year ago and had to mention that. Hope you understood my intent. Good luck with what's going on here. Stay well, Bringingthewood (talk) 01:46, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about it man, I really only care about improving articles and don't take things here personally. I can't even remember what gripe we had anyway. Let's continues to make NFL articles better; the draft is certainly going to keep us busy for a while. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 10:55, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that. Believe me, I mentioned about our interaction, (Chase Young - April 2022), only because I wanted to let this person know that others could have a dispute and eventually move on, like don't slip in jabs when not needed. When I said ******* name, I meant that I never played games, I remembered how to spell your name 'while reverting', not in a vendetta type way, lol. You guys seemed to be going at it and I wanted him to stop poking. Well, good luck with all that you're doing and hope the draft treats you well! Bye for now. John.

Second overall pick template/category

I don't see why the second overall pick needs it's own template/category. Being the second overall pick isn't nearly as notable as being first and not much different from being third or fourth. It's WP:TCREEP. Is the plan to do this for every selection in the first round? Yankees10 17:14, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion should be directed at the primary article, which I unsuccessfully nominated for deletion a while ago. As long as the article remains however, the templates and navboxes serve a purpose. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 17:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

D93

Hey, I saw you’re Dwayne Haskins comment and edit regarding Big Ten Most Valuable Player. I know now with that redirect MOS:NOPIPE applies to the way I piped the recent MVP winners. I was really just seeing if anybody would object to the naming, and nobody has. My question to you is, how exactly would I give my edit explanation for changing Chicago Tribune Silver Football on the older pages? I.e Dick Butkus, with no big ten pipe. Is there an article/link that would help, or just do what I did before and just explain in writing that its the most commonly used vernacular and understanding of the award. Centurion Seraph (talk) 17:26, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You could just link back to WT:NFL discussion showing there is consensus for that format, either directly in the edit summary or the talk page if debated. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 14:29, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thank you D93. I appreciate the help. Centurion Seraph (talk) 17:57, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dota 2 FAC

Have you considered nominating Dota 2 as a Featured Article candidate? It's been in phenomenal state for years and it's mostly owed to you at this point. Also, I re-reviewed the closing reviewers' comments and, eight years later, I still feel like their rationale was full of shit & patronizing. BOTTO (TC) 18:08, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
