[edit] Begining Paragraph
Removed begining paragraph because it was too POV
Volleyball can be a very active sport. Because many offensive plays involve contacting the ball above the top of the net, vertical jumping is an athletic skill emphasized in volleyball.

- Realistically, I don't think that's too PoV. I have re-added the sentence and included a reference to a paper. --Pak21 17:02, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Kills
What, exactly, is a "kill?" I see it on a lot of statistics as something separate from a point and I have no idea what it is. I was surprised to see no mention of it on here. I'm assuming its another name for something already listed, but that would be good to include this as an alternate name for it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.97.253.2 (talk • contribs).
- See Volleyball jargon. Unfortunately, people have trashed that page again by adding in huge amounts of non-notable jargon but kill is still there. --Pak21 08:46, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Semi-protection
I'm starting to feel that it may be time to ask for semi-protection for this page, as almost every edit seems to either be vandalism by an anonymous IP, or a reversion to undo that vandalism. Any opinions? Cheers --Pak21 08:19, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- It's not as bad as some (suffers vandalism only several times per day) but yes, with no content edits for a while, it might be worth it for some time. Icemuon 10:12, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Whoa, just looking at my watchlist after being gone for a day and seeing this page being vandalised constantly leads me to agree completely with Pak21. I'm in favor of semiprotection.. Cheers, PaddyM 03:07, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
