- That was the score of the latest game. The series isn't over yet :). Ginsengbomb (talk) 05:40, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
FYI
I will be trying to get this article featured ASAP. Staxringold talkcontribs 11:39, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- If that's the case then just a heads up that it would probably be good to remove the non-free logo, per Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/2004 World Series/archive2. I definitely support your efforts, but I wouldn't recommend rushing anything simply to get an FA. blackngold29 19:31, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'm going to leave the logo until a better image arises. Staxringold talkcontribs 19:34, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm sure we'll get some good ones now that so many people put stuff on Flickr, etc. Should be the best WS for free pictures yet! blackngold29 19:48, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Season Series
Should a note be made about the season series between the two teams? I believe they played only once during the regular season with the Phillies winning two in a three game series. 64.141.133.22 (talk) 14:07, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- It'll get added. Like I said above, this is going to become my current project. I'll use 2004 World Series as a style guide. Staxringold talkcontribs 14:10, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Update
Jay-Z and Alesha Keys will be performing their song Empire State of Mind prior to game 2 of the world series. Also can we list the opening pitch of the games and who sang the national athem and other music as it happenes.--Cooly123 16:22, 29 October 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)
country flag icons in infobox without country textual descriptive
why are no country names provided next to flag icons in infobox? see MOS:ICON#Accompany flags with country names. in reality, why are flags used at all instead of just country name in parentheses?--98.113.187.11 (talk) 09:45, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Removed, per the style of newly featured 2004 World Series. Staxringold talkcontribs 14:32, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
Utley and Rivera's stock pics
I found that 2008 WS uses stock pics, too. However, can we provide additional information, such as when/where they were taken, so reader won't be misled?--NullSpace (talk) 22:21, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Add the info (2004 World Series does, mentioning the shots are from 07) if you think it's needed. It's just that sometimes the "stock" image provides a better image of the person discussed within than anything available in that moment. See 1960 South Vietnamese coup attempt, for example, a featured article on an "event" such as this. But the individuals at play in the article are all displayed by more generic, timeless photos. Staxringold talkcontribs 22:29, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Please understand that I am not against using stock pics. But if we use one, we have to also tell readers that it's not taken during the series for clearify. They did that well in 2004 WS and 2008 WS articles... --NullSpace (talk) 22:38, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Go for it. I would but I've gotta' go grab dinner before the dining hall closes! :) Staxringold talkcontribs 22:46, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Why was there a mention of the blown call in the top of the 8th, in the caption of the Rivera photo? That was only a makeup call, for the blown call in the bottom of the 7th. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.169.191 (talk) 16:00, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Quotes
Two things guys. First, unsourced quotes will get deleted really fast. Second, lets not overload the thing and turn it into a trivia section. A few choice ones is nice, too many is ugly. Staxringold talkcontribs 01:44, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Umpire controversy
Would it be worth adding a section on all of the umpire controversy involved in the series? The whole post-season has included it, but I can't remember a World Series with so many calls that have been wrong on the replay. MachineFist (talk) 06:46, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
