[edit] Short, Sweet History of Brian McCann

Before history merge, to correct a cut&paste merge, the bad title had this history:

  • 08:58, 10 March 2006 Golbez (redir)
  • 08:16, 10 March 2006 AdmiralTreyDavid m (Adding image and fixing Estrada link.)
  • 08:12, 10 March 2006 AdmiralTreyDavid (Added player box and expanded article a bit.)
  • 15:21, 4 March 2006 Pablo9000


This is the portion of the good title's history that (after the merge that was impending when it was preserved here) surrounds and overlaps with it:

  • 23:04, 6 March 2006 SmackBot m (RM caps in section headers, minor fixes. using AWB)
  • 19:16, 11 February 2006 Iceberg584
  • 22:05, 1 February 2006 D6 m (adding category:Living people)


Here's the combined partial history, with the revisions italicized that done under the bad title:

  • 11:35, 10 March 2006 Jerzy (Bring last by SmackBot back to current after History Merge)
  • 11:28, 10 March 2006 Jerzy m (moved Brian mccann to Brian McCann: Merge histories)
  • 08:58, 10 March 2006 Golbez (redir)
  • 08:16, 10 March 2006 AdmiralTreyDavid m (Adding image and fixing Estrada link.)
  • 08:12, 10 March 2006 AdmiralTreyDavid (Added player box and expanded article a bit.)
  • 23:04, 6 March 2006 SmackBot m (RM caps in section headers, minor fixes. using AWB)
  • 15:21, 4 March 2006 Pablo9000
  • 19:16, 11 February 2006 Iceberg584
  • 22:05, 1 February 2006 D6 m (adding category:Living people)

[edit] Need for Followup after History Merge

Comparison of the latest versions of the two histories that i merged shows material added under the bad title, that may not simply duplicate what was added under the good title before the merge. To wit,

  • bad title used {{Tl:Mlbplayer}} whereas the current revision of the history-combined article has a non-transcluded rough equivalent table, and
  • bad title had a different account, to my eye more detailed, of his minor-league experience & the impact of his moving up.

But i am neither a fan nor experienced with WP sports articles. Someone who is one or both of those should examine the short (bad-title) version and the now current one, and note their conclusions here.
