List of St. Louis Blues head coaches[edit]

Nominator(s): -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]], « Milk's Favorite Cøøkie »
Toolbox

Though MFC is retired, I still want to give him credit for his work on this article. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 22:39, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from Truco
Lead
  • Barclay Plager and Bob Plager are the only pair of brothers[5] to have coached the Blues; Barclay coached for four seasons, and Bob coached for eleven games, respectively. -- there is no need for the respectively since you state (literally respectively) the distinction between Bob and Barclay.
Coaches
  • The achievement 1980–81 Jack Adams Award winner should be consistent with other FL formatting as "Jack Adams Award (1980–81)"
    • Most of my featured lists with Jack Adams Award winners have that format. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 23:24, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yeah, but be consistent with the formatting of other awards not just that specific one.--₮RUCӨ 23:31, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • If it makes you feel better SRE.K.A.L.24, I can fix the other articles later :) Dabomb87 (talk) 23:49, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
References
  • Does the NHL have other subwebsites (beside the teams) that is different from its main website? If not, the work does not need to be "NHL.Com" since its their official website.--₮RUCӨ 23:17, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • It should. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 23:24, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think what Truco's trying to say is that having NHL.com and then NHL Enterprises is redundant. Dabomb87 (talk) 23:30, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yeah, that's what I meant.--₮RUCӨ 23:31, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well excuse me. I just don't think "It should" is a reasonable answer.--₮RUCӨ 00:48, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think the NHL.com website has more sub-pages besides the NHL team ones. I'm no tsure, but I don't know how to check. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 00:50, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've gotten three pro wrestling articles to FA status. When I sourced to the official company website for those events, I did not write World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as the publisher and the work from WWE.com because it is its official website. Now WWE has a website just for their corporate business, which is called WWE Corporate. The work is from WWE Corporate whilst the publisher is still World Wrestling Entertainment. Just like for the NHL, they state NHL.com is the official Web site of the National Hockey League., so there is no need for the redundancy. I would also replace the work field with content that states it is the Blue's official website.--₮RUCӨ 00:58, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now I understand what you mean. Thanks for the clarification (though the first sentence you said wasn't needed in your statement). I'll let you edit the article, just in case if I make a mistake. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 01:18, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • What do you mean it wasn't needed? I was just stating that they were promoted to FA so what I said after that wouldn't sound incorrect or inaccurate. Sorry, if it offended you. --₮RUCӨ 01:27, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • It didn't offend me at all. It was just that it felt like you were shoving the FAs in my face, and I think it would've still made sense. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 02:23, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry, it just didn't seem like that since pro wrestling isn't really fond on WP. I guess just drop a line here when you've done this.--₮RUCӨ 02:38, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The only this is that for pages that are subpages of the Blues (like the main Blues website on NHL.com) is the work (which goes in the work field, like WWE Corporate did in the World Wrestling Entertainment citation.--₮RUCӨ 22:37, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I really don't know what you're saying. I hope you could just fix the references for me, which will be greatly appreciated. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 23:08, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wouldn't the publisher be the St Louis Blues Hockey Club? I noticed that none of the references make note of the Blues, even though the material is "Copyright © 2009 St Louis Blues Hockey Club and the National Hockey League". Just a thought... – Nurmsook! talk... 00:55, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No the work is from the "St Louis Blues Hockey Club". I did it for you, but you should link the NHL publisher to NHL and to the Blues main article since you link to the hall of fame, or vise versa, unlink the hall of fame.--₮RUCӨ 01:59, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 05:27, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support -- Previous issues resolved to meet WP:WIAFL standards.--₮RUCӨ 00:14, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support, all issues resolved. Dabomb87 (talk) 18:11, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • "Having first played at the St. Louis Arena, the Blues have played their home games at the Scottrade Center, first named the Kiel Center, since 1994"-->The Blues played their home games at the St. Louis Arena until 1993/1994 (I don't know which year); they have played their home games at the Scottrade Center, first named the Kiel Center, since then.
Done. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 17:53, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The majority of the Blues" Do you mean the majority of the Blues franchise?
Added franchise. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 17:53, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why are you using the image of the arena when there are two head coach images?
Because I believe those coaches aren't well known enough as a Blues coach. If I had an image of Quenneville or Murray, then it'll be different. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 17:53, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
But it doesn't make sense to use an arena image (blurry, at that) as the lead image when you have two perfectly fine head coach images. It doesn't matter that the coaches aren't well known; those images are simply more relevant. Dabomb87 (talk) 17:57, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done. -- [[SRE.K.A.L.|L.A.K.ERS]] 18:10, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
