Wow!

Just thought I'd stop by to say "Wow". I haven't been so active in recent months, but when I come back from time to tine I see all your great work on historical football topics. It is great to see someone relatively new working so diligently in this area and generating quality work. Cbl62 (talk) 16:55, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Delaware Sports Museum and Hall of Fame members

BeanieFan11, just noticed your edits related to Template:Delaware Sports Museum and Hall of Fame members. I think this navbox template should be deleted. A state sports hall of fame isn't a significant enough honor that a navbox is warranted, i.e. the honor is not so defining that direct navigation between honorees is needed. We've deleted many similar navboxes in the past. Also, note that awards and honors navboxes like this one should be placed after tenure navboxes; see my edits at Joe Purzycki and Mike McGlinchey (American football coach). Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk) 22:49, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can you show me the "similar navboxes" which were deleted in the past? I kind of thought it would be a significant enough honor to get a navbox. BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:57, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I nominated a bunch that all got deleted here: Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2018 February 17. Jweiss11 (talk) 00:48, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Those seem a bit different than this. But, if you want, I am fine with you sending it to TFD. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:09, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
BeanieFan11, I opened the TFD here: Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2022 September 27. Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk) 16:20, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Errington Kelly

@BeanieFan11:, Do you have a subscription to Newspapers.com? If so, I remember you found many sources for Warren Hackett. There is a deletion discussion for Errington Kelly and I wanted to find sources so I searched up Errington Kelly (who made 100+ English Football League apps) on Newspapers.com and found what seemed to be many sources. However, I could not see them fully since I do not have a credit card so can't subscribe. If you have a subscription to Newspapers.com would you be able to put full sources on Errington Kelly in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Errington Kelly? Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience, Das osmnezz (talk) 01:20, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Das osmnezz: I added a few links to Newspapers.com articles in the discussion ([1]). I believe you should be able to apply for free access at the Wikipedia Library. Its really helpful on American topics and to a lesser extent Canadian and British topics. BeanieFan11 (talk) 14:28, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Das osmnezz I very strongly recommend you apply to Newspapers.com as BeanieFan suggests. They don't ask for any payment details or anything, and you can get access within a few days of applying. I just got access granted and it was as easy as anything. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 19:31, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reggie Northrup + Im back

Hey, I have been gone for a months due to needing to take a break. But I'm back to edit and make relevant football articles as best I can. I am done with the Reggie Northrup article, If you find anything wrong with it, let me know. Thank you Karate LemonLime (talk) 15:56, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Karate LemonLime: :) Nice to see you back. After looking again at the draft, I realized that there needs to be a ref in the "Mixed Martial Arts career" section. So all that you need to do is add a reference to Northrup's final match was in January 2022, where defeated Jay Mitchell in 35 seconds by knockout and I can accept it. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:01, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok cool, I will find where I got that from as soon as possible. Karate LemonLime (talk) 16:03, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay I found it, and I'm not sure if I cited it correctly Karate LemonLime (talk) 17:04, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It seems cited correctly (although it would be nicer if you used {{cite web}} format rather than a bare url). I have moved the page to mainspace. BTW, if you request an unblock from mainspace I think it would probably be accepted, as long as you make sure you understand the notability criteria. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:10, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok thank you, I feel like the main thing holding me back currently is citing but thanks again. Also I wrote an article for Jarron Jones, but I forgot how to make it in Wikipedia for review. Karate LemonLime (talk) 14:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
See arrow and circle at bottom left
@Karate LemonLime: To create a page in Wikipedia, you need to click the "publish changes" button at the bottom left of the screen when you're finished (see picture). For referencing, Wikipedia:Citing sources may help (although I personally find it way too long). One thing you could do is have bare urls when you create it, and then immediately afterwards run refill on the page, which fills out most references. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:15, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, and by the way I did some research and there are a few pages that need updating but I can't do it. But I found that Marion Grice, Thomas Mayo (gridiron football) and Darryl Stonum are in the new American Patriot League. Ra'Shede Hageman was updated but I doubt anyone would update the others. You don't have to do it or anything, you are the only person I talk to on here lol. Thank you again for what you gave me it's really helpful!
