Sources

You need to read the WP:BLP guidelines. And information that could be seen as libellous needs a source. You have now added sources, so there is no problem but the onus is always on you to add sources to text, not for me to refrain from removing it. Also bear in mind that Wikipedia is not censored, those little "expletive deleted" boxes can go, this is not the Nixon tapes. And finally I would be careful of WP:OWN, I see you have a barnstar for your work on that one article, don't let that make you think that you are the olny editor who is allowed to edit that article. I have no interest in Isiah Thomas, I just went past the article and saw some remarks which stood out as possibly in violation of our policies, so I took them out, as I would do on any article. Remember that when editing an article it is important that the information is backed up otherwise it may go, the quote you have on the page about "I am innocent" has no source, if I were you I would find one or another editor may remove it.

Per WP:CRYSTAL, we only change an athlete's team details based on an official signing; not a deal agreed in principle. Thanks. --Madchester (talk) 03:46, 25 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to New York Yankees, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. The material you removed appears to have been sourced, and you did not provide any explanation for the change in your edit summary. Bdb484 (talk) 02:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that with these two edits: [1] and [2] you removed facts regarding the DHL awards. Since you didn't include an edit summary, I am not sure why you did this. Care to share? Atlantabravz (talk) 11:34, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I contend that the DHL Award is notable. See here: DHL Delivery Man of the Year Award. Considering the fact that he broke the all-time saves record and still didn't win seems to be worth mentioning. MLB has also sanctioned that award just as they do the Rolaids Relief Man Award. Atlantabravz (talk) 23:00, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2009 World Series

I'm sorry, you're simply wrong. You are removing a well-referenced statement from the expert in the field. Yes, it is an opinion, but referenced expert opinions are perfectly allowable. Staxringold _talk^contribs 01:35, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This link http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs/2009/news/story?id=4614592 clearly shows AJ Burnett's success on pitching on short rest, actual facts should matter more than the opinion and commentary of some talking head that the average baseball fan hasn't even heard of.
