[edit] NCAA football championships

It might be a good idea to suggest changes that are going to take a long time to do, if you don't want to waste your time. I would prefer to use initial abbreviations over external links. Rkevins82 01:13, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Film titles

In the future, could you please put titles of films/television shows/plays/albums in italics? Names of songs belong in "double quotes". This is according to the Manual of Style. Thanks, Dismas|(talk) 21:19, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New York Mutuals

Hi, Drew. Are you a SABR member?

What is your source for the New York Mutuals claim to 1868 and 1869 championships? I know of 1868 and 1870 claims. I tagged it {disputed} a while ago and exported it to the talk page recently. It should be restored somehow, maybe in a section on the team record. --P64 18:59, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brooklyn Atlantics

Do you have a source other than Marshall Wright for Brooklyn Atlantics? Is Marshall Wright your source for the 1857-1859 championship --Atlantic emergence as undisputed champion in 1859?

For each of these two clubs and a few others, today I added a rough table "Record" of data provided by or derived from Wright. Before I improve the format a little, I wonder what you think should be included. For example, should it be pre-1871 only, relying on the cited online encyclopedia references for data beginning 1871?

Probably there should be a section on Wright's book in the NABBP article, or even an article on the book, covering some technical points about the data. Then the article on any NABBP member club can refer to the article/section. At the moment, I have a source note below the "Record" table. --P64 23:35, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ballclub names

I wonder what you think of the section Brooklyn Eckfords#Name and I hope you will comment at Talk:Eckford of Brooklyn#Name. I anticipate eventually putting some of this material in a general article like NABBP so that ballclub articles can handle some of it by reference to the general one. --P64 05:15, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
