Player statistics

[edit]

You have been adding player statistics to a number of articles. What is the source of your data? Magnolia677 (talk) 12:00, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for adding data to 2024 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships, it's been very helpful. However in Special:Diff/1228039628, I noticed you removed the redlinks from the list. Per WP:REDLINK, it's helpful to leave redlinks in lists even if there is no article yet because articles could be created later. I would just leave all entries linked (and disambiguated as necessary, e.g. by adding a suffix from Wikipedia:Naming conventions (sportspeople)#Athletics (track and field)).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Janelle Bailey, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Center. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Cite errors

[edit]

Hello! Some (maybe more) of your recent edits reformatting the career statistics tables of basketball players have introduced cite errors, specifically cite error references missing key. This happens because you remove a list-defined reference's only usage in the text (the reference is normally named "NCAA Player stats" and appears in wikitext as <ref name="NCAA Player stats"/>). When editing those tables, please be sure to comment out (by surrounding it with <!-- and -->) or completely remove that reference from the "References" section at the end of the article (the reference will start with <ref name="NCAA Player stats>). Thanks! – Daℤyzzos (✉️ • 📤) Please do not ping on reply. 16:31, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Purplegrapevine, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Atlantic Coast Conference women's basketball Defensive Player of the Year, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Atlantic Coast Conference women's basketball Defensive Player of the Year.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Yoblyblob}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
