[edit] Disambiguation links/piping

I know it's really annoying when someone picks out something you've done and tells you to do it another way so I apologise in advance for what follows. I just noticed your edits to MLB All-Time Triples List and that your "Jim O'Rourke" link pointed to this disambiguation page rather than directly to the baseball player. Though it's a really irritating procedure, it's always best to check if all your links are going to the right place. For example Jim O'Rourke (baseball player) rather than Jim O'Rourke or Jim O'Rourke (musician). If you want to link to Jim O'Rourke (baseball player) without directly showing it in the text like this Jim O'Rourke, all you have to do is add a vertical line "|" (press shift+\) between what you want to link to (first) and what you want the link to say. This is called piping and would look like this: [[Jim O'Rourke (baseball player)|Jim O'Rourke]]. You probably know all this already as you've done hundreds of good edits so sorry if you did and I'm being patronising or such. Thanks. Jellypuzzle | Talk 09:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits for List of Star Trek planets

Please stop adding links to the planet names on this page. It is highly unlikely that every planet will get a dedicated article about them since most are insignifigant and appeared once in an episode or merely given a brief mention in dialog. Anything added to them will be purely fan conjecture since no offical canon info is available. They will be deleted as worthless entries and fancruft. Certian major planets like Bajor do have their own entries because they played a vital role in the series and there is a lot of canon info about them. Likewise, a lengthy entry about such planets is unecessary because they have their own article with more information. Data on a planet should be confined into a single sentence otherwise it will be deleted as being worthless fluff. Everytime you make a dead link it gets filed under "Wanted pages" which fills up everyday and causes controversy because a lot on nonsense articles are asked to be made. Admins may come in and delete everything because they feel it's a waste of bandwidth here. Again linking planets will cause problems, not to mention annoy the hell out of me because I have to clean up useless edits all day. Cyberia23 00:12, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Will you lay off this page! You're still adding total fancruft BS to it and I suggest you stop writing long winded descriptions that have no canon references to support anything you've added. I'm working backwards of Z - A to overhaul the page and clean it up and all your doing is adding nonsense and making cleanup harder. Plus you deleted all the references for the episodes where the planets came from. Thanks, now I have to redo it all over again. Cyberia23 07:20, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blue Jays AL League Leaders

I recently came upon your work on the Jays AL League Leaders page I noticed you did some research and listed some of the their American League leading accomplishments. Possibly you could add the values for these league leaders. (As in George Bell 48 HRs in 1987, or whichever the stat maybe). I think it would add some extra valuable information to the page.

[edit] baseball player articles

Hi - thank you for your contributions to baseball player articles. However, I think you could improve quality of the articles that you create if you could follow the form for established baseball player articles. For example, Eddie Miller (baseball infielder) does not read like an encyclopedia article. A good place to start is Wikipedia:WikiProject_Baseball_players. Look at some of the pages users on that project have worked on for a guide as to how articles should be written. Please let me know if you have any questions. - Mattingly23 02:53, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Please, please, please add your sources to your articles. I'm thrilled that you are creating so many, but it would help tremendously if you'd add a link to your source. If you have any questions on how to do it, I'll be glad to help. Kathy A. 16:09, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Miami Dolphins Coaching Staff

Mike Mularkey is no longer the team's offensive coordinator. He will remain with the team, but likely will not have that title. You can know this because the team is currently interviewing candidates for their offensive coordinator position. Mularkey will probably end up tight ends coach.
