* Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.

* Sport industry (currently a sub-stub)
Photo : for pages listed in Category:Wikipedia requested images of sports and games and sub-categories.
Stubs : work on articles in Category:Sports stubs

2009 season schedule

I tried to add "(as the California Redwoods)" to the 2009 heading, since the article is now at the Sacramento location and not the California location, but I was reverted, with the only comment being "implied". Now, I'm not goint to get into an edit war over this, but it's only implied if the reader were to read the history of the franchise, and not just skimmed the article.

I think we can do better than that, and I won't get into the WP:MOS issues with having a long heading with parentheses. Having a separate section for each's year's schedule is barely a long-term solution in the first place. Pats1 ^T/C 22:51, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What's your alternative, other than a separate page for each season? Woogee (talk) 22:52, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just design the articles a bit differently. It's all a work in progress... Pats1 ^T/C 23:03, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
