[edit] Nickname
I grew up in Boston, and went to many games. I always heard and seen him refered to as "Conig". He was my favorite, as a kid. I even got his autograph, and he put "Conig", beside his full name. (I don't have it anymore. :( ) I don't know if he signed it like that just for us, though. We all called him that, so did the other teammates and the sportcasters. We also call "Conigliaro's Corner" "Conig's Corner". There is talk to change the name, but I don't think that will happen. That part may just be a local thing as "Conigliaro's Corner" is too long for Bostonians. We like to shorten names of streets and people, in addition to dropping our Rs. He WAS "Conig" to us. Maybe it's a local thing, but the "nickname" was used in Time Magazine, so I put that as a reference. "Conig" was the man. He and "Yaz". Jeeny (talk) 01:50, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Old-age makeup
I don't understand what that part is about, or how it's relevant to the article.
Me either, so I deleted it. Also the name of the gymnasium...the author just said it was renamed in his honor, why tell us again what it's called? (The Tony Conigliaro Gymnasium)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Tonyconigliaro.jpg
Image:Tonyconigliaro.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 insure 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.
