1992 controversy

Move to new page titled 1992 Little League World Series - The page should not be moved into this page, which is on the Little League World Series in general, not just the 1992 event. Rather, there is precedent on this subject to create individual pages for the specific tournaments - 2000, 2005 and 2006 have their own Wikipedia pages, titled 2000 Little League World Series, etc. I would suggest that the page regarding the 1992 controversy be moved to a new page dedicated just to the 1992 Little League World Series, on which other information could be added if other Wikipedians wish to expand it.--DaveOinSF 18:50, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Go for it. Search 4 Lancer 22:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Updated 1999 results

The winning and losing teams were reversed. I've switched them back to show Japan as the winning team based on this article: [1]

3 states?

Shouldn't it be "4 states" that don't crown a state champion: California, Texas, S. Dakota, and N. Dakota?

3 states (part 2)

Seeing no objection I changed 3 exceptions to 4

Go team!

Maybe I'm missing the point, but, shouldn't the links go to the winning team, not the town? Trekphiler 01:21, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But the winning team often doesn't have an article. --Howard the Duck 12:09, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And probably doesn't deserve one, either. Matt Yeager ♫ (Talk?) 23:56, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:LittleLeagueLogo.jpg

Image:LittleLeagueLogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:10, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Critics

There should be section on critics of the LLWS. Many believe that it puts too much pressure on the kids, and gives viewers who are kids the wrong impression of what sports should be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.229.128.169 (talk) 13:49, August 30, 2007 (UTC)

Um, I'd like to see some concrete evidence of this, as I've never heard of them before. Megarockman (talk) 19:33, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Europe Region

The LLWS website shows the creation of a new Europe region, split off from the EMEA (now just MEA, presumably for Middle East and Africa). Transatlantic has disappeared. Does anyone know the details? Megarockman (talk) 19:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect 1989 Champion listed.

Kentucky is listed for winning the 1989 LLWS. It was actually Trumbull CT, led by NHL star Chris Drury, who won the 1989 LLWS. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.2.251.142 (talk) 16:54, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up, it is fixed now Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 17:02, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Taiwan/Chinese Taipei

So the past champions list on the LLWS website mentions all the Taiwanese teams as "Chinese Taipei", but most of the LLWS-related articles on Wikipedia still refer to them as Taiwan (especially because they sometimes get reverted to back to Taiwan when they had been Chinese Taipei), including this very article. Doesn't this mean Taiwan should be referred to as Chinese Taipei on all the LLWS articles? As far as I know, every Taiwanese team in an international competition, such as the Olympics or the World Baseball Classic, goes by Chinese Taipei because they have to. Tampabay721 (talk) 06:44, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But you should understand that "Taiwan" is a "Country" that "Chinese Taipei" is a "Team" and as we know Taiwan is not a part of China.If you use "team"for title then you can write Chinese Taipei but if is "Country",you'd better say Taiwan.

I know many of you cannot understand the relation between Chinese Taipei and Taiwan has how much different to others.Taiwan is not so popular now, if you still use "Chinese Taipei" to replace "Taiwan" in the title "country", it'll be a big disaster. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.160.28.252 (talk) 09:54, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Seems that Little League has taken this "risk" by doing so already, as I've shown in the provided link. Tampabay721 (talk) 17:08, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

According to the Wikipedia page on Chinese Taipei, the name was not adopted until November of 1979. Perhaps we can divide the usage of the names at the 1980 LLWS?Jojorocko (talk) 05:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
