Hello Howard the Duck
Thanks for the message but I originally created and researched the article and this is how it should be. Obviously, the information you tried to add are erroneous. Redmanizer DOES NOT have any English origin. You obviously do not have a lot of knowledge about these two teams. PBA teams in the 70's and 80's, specially these two teams, were defined by Starting Fives and Team Captains. Obviously you are applying to conventional standards to these defunct teams which is inaccurate.
While I appreciate you trying to guide me through Wikipedias Mos. These are just guidelines. I believe the information held within is what is important.
I do not see anything wrong with my Style which I believe it closely follows the Mos guidelines without being disorganized. I also do not see anything wrong with the information in the article which is as nuetral, historical and informative as possible.
Please stop changin the article. Thanks.
- You say Please stop changin the article. When you submitted the article, did you read the bit in bold at the bottom of the page that says If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it.? Wikipedia is a collaborative medium, this means no-one owns any article. Pseudomonas 12:11, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
- Your changes does not enhance the information. You are even adding erroneous ones. I will allow added accurate information. Not information that would ruin the information and the article.
-
- My changes? What changes did I make that were erroneous? Pseudomonas 12:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
- So ok, screw the etymology part.
- But what's the use of having the Manual of Style if you'll won't use it? Would it be useless? Or should we follow it. Check these featured articles, the best articles in Wikipedia, they ALL follow the the Manual of style. Bad articles usually don't follow the manual of style. In order for an article to be good, we should follow the MOS.
- But please answer this: Did the Chicago Bulls page, probably the greatest club team in history, outline their starting five in the "Players of Note" section (take note that "Players of Note" is wrong under the MOS haha.) Then you can convince me that the "Team Roster" page you so dearly love won't be edited. And please, don't go around in circles, go direct to the point. Even Michael Jordan isn't listed in the "Basketball Hall of Famers" (that is correct, BTW, since it's a proper noun) section, although he is noted at the bottom. Also, another policy you'll find handy: WP:OWN. Thanks and happy editing. --Howard the Duck 12:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

- Recently you'd added this "<!--Toyota,Crispa and Utex were defined by a core starting 5 and Team Captain. Do not rearrange this Roster -->". Although I'll leave thenm that way, you should still answer the question: Did the Chicago Bulls page, probably the greatest club team in history, outline their starting five in the "Players of Note" section? If you don't asnwer, I'll bring this to arbitration. Thanks. --Howard the Duck 12:31, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Team rosters
Instead of reverting back and forth, why not give me a list of Toyota's, Crispa's and U-Tex's final team rosters before they'll folded up? Include their numbers, positions and colleges. Then I'll create a template. --Howard the Duck 15:26, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Userbox...
I thought you may like to use a PBA userbox. They're at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Philippine Basketball Association. You are welcome to edit them however you want. The MOS doesn't apply on templates, but keep it short so as not to stretch the page. --Howard the Duck 12:25, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] An appeal to Wikify
Please wikify your articles so they will link into other articles. Also add categories (such as Category:Filipino basketball players, Category:Living people and the like. Thanks. --Howard the Duck 03:58, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] IN eegards to your comments to my page
First of issue is you need to clearly read WP:CIVIL before posting to anothers user page. Second I am in fact TheRanger and only TheRanger not RexNL or whoever else you claim me to be. I was unable to find the article you are speaking of as you did not include the name or a link to the change that you speak of. However, from the way your comments read I would assume that my changes were made on a recent vandlism patrol of recent changes and if you style is the same in editing as comments you a edit that blanked a large portion of text with out a edit summary, if that was the case your edit looked like vandalism and was reverted for those reasons. Thanks for you attemp to inprove the base of wikipedia however please use the edit summary when doing so as others will then know that you are working to fix and not creat vandalism when doing so. Also please sign you comments when leaving them on another users talk page. TheRanger 21:51, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright
You say that the Florencio article was posted here with the authorization of Jay Mercado?
Well, here's the thing. We can't just take your word for it. Most of the time, people tell the truth about that, but sometimes they don't. So we can't allow it, unless you can get Jay Mercado to edit his original post to the forum, so that it says "I, Jay Mercado, release this text under the terms of the GFDL". Then it'll be okay.
