[edit] "Player of the Week"? Are you kidding me?

Do we honestly need such ridiculous, minute details like "Player of the Week"? How many players have won this award? Hundreds, probably thousands at this point. I'm sure that many players have won a number of "Player of the Week" awards that DWARF this number, but so what if no one else is keeping a record of it besides a very dedicated fan or something? Also they are not cited yet anyhow.--Hoopsknowledge 00:48, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arbitary Cutoffs and Arcane Awards

If you want to keep such things, then include them for every other player as well. It's called consistency. Otherwise, you're giving player A an incorrect appearance of having more achievements that player B. Not very hard to understand. Meanwhile, there is nothing more arbitrary than point cutoffs of 27 and 31 points. Find a source for 30 points, and X and Y, or else it doesn't deserve to be included, because clearly 31 and 27 were chosen for a reason, many other players have just missed the mark and yet excel farther in other fields.--TyrusThomas4lyf 12:12, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Read WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. Not very hard to understand. All "arbitrary cutoffs" were sourced from a reliable publisher: espn, the nba, etc. Just because something does or does not exist in another article, does not mean it can or cannot exist in another. Consensus has been met on this issue already, you've been warned plenty of times already about reverting and starting edit wars. From now on, I'm going to issue official wiki warnings, which if you avoid, or continue to avoid, will lead to your account being suspended/blocked. I've allowed you to completely dismiss stats from the DWade article, because they were not well sourced. These on the other hand are, and I will not allow you to exibit this type of behavior anymore.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sporting News LeBron.jpg

Image:Sporting News LeBron.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
