Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

A tag has been placed on Ohio State Buckeyes baseball, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Go Buckeyes[edit]
OHIO is right, but I'm anti-playoff. Go Bucks!!!!!Bcspro (talk) 14:54, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Why[edit]
I grew up watching the bowl games. The 1997 Rose Bowl launched my love for Ohio State football. You cannot remove the tradition from the Rose Bowl which has been around since 1902. It has been said so many times, a playoff would dilute the importance of the regular season. Many March Madness fans don’t or rarely watch the regular season, I am one of those fans. I am actually for a plus one format, but without the 1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3 format. Traditional tie-ins must be followed. But that’s just my opinion. Bcspro (talk) 02:43, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Giving the Rose Bowl the NC still violates its tradition of Big Ten/Pac-10. What I would like to see is the major bowls played and then two teams selected to play a week or two later from those winners. The tradition of the Rose, Sugar, Orange Bowl etc. still intact. Bcspro (talk) 22:35, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Reds[edit]
Correct founding date of the current team is 1882, as discussed at length in talk. Continuing to try to post 1869 constitutes vandalism. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 06:27, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- As has been discussed at length, and as the Reds themselves acknowledge, the current club dates only to 1882. If you continue to push the 1869 year, it will continue to be treated as vandalism on your part. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 12:34, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Stop it. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 19:11, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
You also need to stop adding back that supposed "1919" team photo, which is plainly marked as "1909" and also looks its age. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 05:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Chillicothe Paints has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive.

Would you be willing to discuss it? I prefer the fully collapsed version.--Rockfang (talk) 09:26, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Ohio state buckeyes football68, you really need to discuss this with Rockfang, either here or at Talk:Green Bay Packers. Continuing to edit war over this article, as you have done here, here, here, and here, is not appropriate. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Thank you. — Satori Son 13:19, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Why[edit]
Why, after all this time of inproving Ohio State articles, do you feel the need to vandalize? It is getting to the point where you will be blocked if it continues. Bcspro (talk) 22:01, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- That's what I'd like to know. I've been getting close to turning this guy in to WP:ANI. It's almost like there are two different guys operating in this account - which is strictly against the rules. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 22:13, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- In fact, I think it's about time I did. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 22:15, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
I have now reported this user's peculiar activities to WP:ANI. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 22:23, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Fixed[edit]
First off, my apoligies. I believe it is now fixed. Try comparing other pages to see what is different. Miami Hurricanes football of all teams cracked it for me. Happy editing. Bcspro (talk) 02:53, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
Like I said, I went to Miami Hurricanes football, they also have a National Champions box. I looked at what was different from your box and theirs. You were missing another |} at the end. Ask for help next time and explain any deletions or additions that may appear controversaial to avoid this whole mess in the future. Bcspro (talk) 17:45, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Stop re-adding the above photo to Green Bay Packers. The above photo is not a free image, as can be seen on the image's description page. It cannot be used in this article. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk ♦ contribs) @ 15:36, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- Because the image is copyrighted. That means that we on Wikipedia must have a very, very good reason to be able to use it. Now our reason in the article Don Hutson is that the article is about the person in the picture, the person is dead so it would be really hard to get a free picture of him, and the photo helps the reader understand the article. It cannot be used in the Green Bay Packers article because the article is about the Packers, we could easily find another free image that could be used in its place, or not even put a picture at all because one isnt needed, and it really doesnt help the reader understand this article better. Pictures aren't just added to make things look pretty, they should help the reader understand the article, but if the image is free than we usually add it just to make things look better. If the image is not free than we cannot add it to any article we want, there must be a extremely good reason to, and there is not an extremely good reason to add it to the Packers article.

Goochelaar (talk) 19:08, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
I reverted your erroneous change of their founding year. 1960 is when they moved from Chicago to St. Louis, but the Cardinals are older than the NFL itself, as is well-covered in the article. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 17:03, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Albert E. Herrnstein[edit]
A tag has been placed on Albert E. Herrnstein requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
