G'day, I was wondering why you've decided to use the term "National Cup" to describe the AFL Preseason Cup competition. I've never heard it called that. The AFL uses "Pre-season/Night Series" in its records. The ABC (who obviously avoid using the sponsored name) call it the "pre-season cup" (see [http://www.google.com/search?q=%22st+kilda%22+%22grand+final%22+%22Cup%22+site%3Aabc.net.au here]). It's been the pre-season cup since 1988 and the night series before that, so unless you have a source calling it the national cup, I'd prefer to see it called "Pre-season Cup" or "Pre-season/Night series Cup". In terms of the variable in your template, you don't have to change it, just the text, like I did yesterday. It is also good editing to fill in the [[Wikipedia:Edit summary|edit summary]] box to explain your edits, such as your revision of my change to the info box template. What is your plan with the Preseason/Night series premiers lists.. there are now three that are virtually identical. [[List of Australian Football League night premiers]], [[Australian Football League Pre-Season Cup Premiers]] and [[Australian Football League National Cup Winners]]. I think we should delete the last two and just keep the first one. Regards, [[User:The-Pope|The-Pope]] ([[User talk:The-Pope|talk]]) 16:30, 6 October 2008 (UTC) |

Thanks for uploading Image:LakeNarracan.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated.

This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Speedy deletion of Clinton Jones (footballer)
A tag has been placed on Clinton Jones (footballer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. — DædαlusT@lk / Improve 07:11, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

National Cup

The AFL uses "Pre-season/Night Series" in its records. The ABC (who obviously avoid using the sponsored name) call it the "pre-season cup" (see here). It's been the pre-season cup since 1988 and the night series before that, so unless you have a source calling it the national cup, I'd prefer to see it called "Pre-season Cup" or "Pre-season/Night series Cup". In terms of the variable in your template, you don't have to change it, just the text, like I did yesterday. It is also good editing to fill in the edit summary box to explain your edits, such as your revision of my change to the info box template. What is your plan with the Preseason/Night series premiers lists.. there are now three that are virtually identical.

VFL season infoboxes
Excellent work with implementing the infoboxes from the 1950s onwards, but why are you replacing the ones that I've already done in the 1940s? The one I've used refers correctly to clubs as clubs instead of 'teams', premierships to premierships instead of 'titles', has a tidier and correct term for the leading goal-kicker and includes the Champion of the Season.
