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.

What is TCWSF ?

I have got to assume that TCWSF is some conference in the 1970s (and earlier?). But the article does not say what it stands for or what it is. Can someone in the know add this (and to Pat Summitt too. thanks. MDfoo (talk) 01:27, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why did the article get moved??

Can someone tell me why the article got moved from "Tennessee Lady Volunteers basketball"?

Tennessee has ALWAYS used "Lady Volunteers" for all of its women's teams. (Note the school's women's athletic logo depicted in the infobox.)
In fact, Tennessee is one of only two NCAA Division I schools with completely separate athletic departments for men and women (Texas is the other). Tennessee goes one step farther than Texas—Tennessee women's athletics has a completely separate website, at utladyvols.com; note the usage of the traditional short form "Lady Vols". (Texas uses a single website for both its men's and women's sports programs.)
US sports media universally refer to Tennessee women's sports as either "Lady Volunteers" or "Lady Vols" (the university approves both terms, IIRC).

So, what's the deal? I say the article should be moved back to its correct place of "Tennessee Lady Volunteers basketball". Of course, someone will need to merge the histories of the two versions... I'm an admin, so I could theoretically do it, but I'm not experienced at all in that aspect. — Dale Arnett (talk) 21:54, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date of Delta State victory

A new editor changed the year from 1976 to 1978 in this edit. Because the same claim is made in this article, but the neither the existing claim nor the revised claim are referenced, I thought I'd try and track it down.

I've only partially succeeded.

I found:

Robert H. Palestini (30 June 2008). A game plan for effective leadership: lessons from 10 successful coaches in moving from theory to practice. R&L Education. pp. 146–. ISBN 978-1-57886-814-8. Retrieved 24 March 2012.

which clearly says 1976. Ironically, that source convinces me the right answer is 1978, and I am going to make the change. (For extra credit, figure out why it is obvious the right answer is 1978).

I can't use a reference claiming 1976 to support an edit to 1978, but I'm going to put the right value in, and hope someone can identify a clean source with the correct answer.--SPhilbrick (Talk) 01:03, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

1985 regular season champion? I don't think so

There is at least one error in this article, tracing back to the creation in 2007. I think the text and infobox claiming a regular season championship in 1985 is incorrect. At present, I can only infer this, so I'm not ready to made an edit without better sourcing. I'm attempting to contact someone to look into it, but if anyone is reading this, I hope you will double-check some of the claims.--SPhilbrick (Talk) 00:24, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed 1985 they was 2nd in the east that year. Found that in their media guide at http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/tennw/sports/w-baskbl/auto_pdf/09wbb-records.pdf Theworm777 (talk) 05:25, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
