Tommy Mills[edit]

Nice job adding the basketball record table for Tommy Mills. Good luck to your boys tomorrow against Duke! Jweiss11 (talk) 22:52, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm starting to figure it out, basically just copying other pages' templates. Cutting my teeth on what I am familiar with. I still need to work on tense and sourcing for what I've contributed so far. What's your interest in Mills? I see you linked your facebook, I don't believe he coached at Tufts. And I expect the Jays to lose tomorrow, which would be okay...getting by Cincy was the goal. Plvcolin (talk) 23:56, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I went to Tufts, but there isn't much of an athletic tradition there. It's a Division III school. I've always been a fan of Michigan football. I don't have a particular interest in Mills, but coaching biographies tend to be my main focus here on Wikipedia. Using other well-developed articles as a template is generally a good practice.
