[edit] License tagging for Image:YankeesRetired7.PNG
Thanks for uploading Image:YankeesRetired7.PNG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

[edit] Yankee number 34
The New York Yankees have not retired this number yet. The player to which you attributed the number, Elston Howard, wore number 32 and that digit was retired in his honor. So, if you could, please correct this.
BTW: Number 34 was last worn by Mel Stottlemyre, both as a pitcher and coach. Though it would be nice if it were retired for him, I don't see that happening any time soon. Rollosmokes 18:31, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- "Hah! Thank you so much. If you look at the edit when I added them all, I put in a link to number 32, which led to nowhere. When I looked I realized that I had linked to an image that didn't exist, since I'd made 34. I linked to that one, thinking that the mistake was in linking to 32."
- "Fortunately, I made an image of the circle with the pinstripes, and numbers 1-0, so I can easily make any number. I'll get right on this, and, thanks again."

- I'm glad I could have been of service to you, a fellow Yankee fan. Rollosmokes 06:32, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Major League Baseball Lore
I hate to keep poking at the Major League Baseball Lore article but doesn't the 2004 postseason write up belong in the 2004 American League Championship Series article? —Wknight94 (talk) 17:26, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:TwinsIcon.PNG)
Thanks for uploading Image:TwinsIcon.PNG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nilfanion (talk) 15:41, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] St._Louis_Cardinals#Retired_numbers
Great work there, the table layout with the images look fabulous. Going to have to see if I can't work that idea into the Detroit Red Wings ones. — MrDolomite | Talk 03:50, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ballparks
Working too long on any one edit presents that risk. It's better to work on something for a little while, say 15 minutes, and then save what you have so far. Just like you would with any other document. Meanwhile, I want to know if you have a problem with any of what I wrote that you reverted. I don't want to necessarily put it back if you're going to zap it again. Wahkeenah 13:47, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- It's good to see I'm not the only one staying up too late due to wiki-additiction. :) Arguing about Yankee Stadium? I don't recall. I can't remember one editor from another after a day or two. On reflection, you're right, the stuff about championships and trends is overkill. A lot of that is in the main articles. This article is about what makes the park physically unique in a broad sense. So the reasons for the closeness of the Yankee Stadium and Pac Bell right fields should be in their main articles article, and just the mere fact of these things is sufficient for this summary.
