[edit] STOP the vandalism
I understand your enthusiasm for UNC, but you WILL stop vandalizing the UVA basketball article. Whether you like it or not, there is no such thing as a tiebreaker for the mythical regular-season championship. Perhaps our loss will convince you to find somewhere else to go play. 1995hoo 03:09, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- You posted this to my talk: "I am NOT vandalizing the UVA basketball page. I fixed incorrect information, that's all. I hate UNC. UVA is not regular season ACC champ. I am a big Cavs fan. Let me explain something. The regular season title is unofficial and is only meant to determine the #1 seed in the ACC tourney. They can't have two #1 seeds. So a tiebreaker comes into effect to determine the 1 seed and thus the regular season champion. This year it is UNC which, sadly during the regular season, beat UVA."
- I will take you at your word, but you're wrong. The tiebreaker doesn't apply to a "regular season title," which, as you note, is indeed unofficial. The tiebreaker applies ONLY to the seeding, and the schools that finished tied for first (this year, UVA and UNC) can both claim to be "co-champions." The ACC's media guide bears this out. I cannot link you directly to the source, but please take a look at the second page of the PDF linked here: [1] If that link doesn't work, then go here [2] and click the "Pages 77-103" link and go to the second page. This is the ACC's media guide for the season that ends tomorrow. Look at the second column on the page I reference and take note of 1956, 1959, 1960, 1979, 1982, 1983, 1985, 1995, and 2001. In particular, note 1995, where four teams (including UVA) finished 12-4 and were "regular season co-champions." The ACC have always been pansies about breaking ties in any sport; consider the 1989 and 1995 UVA football teams, both of whom beat the teams tied with them in the standings (Duke and FSU, respectively), but both of whom were deemed "co-champions" by the league, to the point where the ACC allowed the Bowl Alliance to take FSU over UVA in 1995 because there was no tiebreaker. If your argument were correct, then only one school would be listed in the media guide column I reference. (While it is an unofficial thing, any time a team picked to finish 8th ends up tied for 1st it's a notable achievement.) 1995hoo 15:39, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] NCAA Tourney de-linking
I'm not sure I agree with your assessment on 2007 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament that "Since the teams are already stated above it is redundant and not necessary to wikilink them." It's OK to have multiple links to the same article on a page. According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links), a good guideline is to include the same link only once per subsection. The article followed this guideline before you removed all the links. That's why the team name was a link in the first round, but not later rounds. Those links would have been redundant, but the first link in a particular subsection is not. As it stands, a reader has to scroll through most of the article to find the team link.
If you feel differently, let me know. Otherwise I'll add those links back in. --dantheox 19:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
