==Undrafted free agents in NFL infobox== |
|||
Hi, I'm writing you because you have previously posted on [[Template talk:Infobox NFLactive]] and I would like your opinion on an addition I made that is being contested. I have added a field to the infobox called "undraftyear", and when a year is entered it adds a line under a guy's college that says "[[Undrafted athlete|Undrafted]] in [[1997 NFL season|1997]]" or whatever year is appropriate. I did this because I felt there should be something noting a guy went undrafted, similar to the info for drafted players that was already in place. To see how this would look in an article, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sammy_Knight&oldid=152712176 here] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Priest_Holmes&oldid=152668581 here]. If you would be in favor of this edit, I'd ask you to kindly voice this at [[Template talk:Infobox NFLactive#Undrafted free agents]]. It is being contested by one person because they feel the year should not be there. I feel the year is important, just as the year of drafting is important. I also feel that since we have an NFL debut section in the infobox as well as a listed of teams and years played for each, it wouldn't cause any confusion. So if you're okay with this edit or you'd like to get in the discussion, I'd encourage you to do so.

I'm sorry, but the edit you made wasn't a full revert of me, so could you please explain the edit? Looking at the edit summary, I assumed you reverted me and I was confused. I understand the edit now, but for future reference, could you please try to avoid using the default edit summary if the edit you're making isn't a revert? But thanks for the right link, either way.

Link
Thank you for actually providing a link to a discussion on the topic. Just a couple of notes though - it seems very "hit or miss" and that no real consensus was established. As the MOS does specifically describe that it is appropriate in certain cituations, and seeing as that discussion did not lead to a consensus - i can't say i'm in agreement with the decision to remove the content or to leave it. It's still up in the air and due to the rampant edit wars going on, and the tense situation, I have said time again that we need to go with status quo. There are lots of other edits one can make than to change contentious information in an infobox. All that aside, at least you pointed to pertinant text and that should not be overlooked as the discussion continues. Juan Miguel Fangio| ►Chat 01:07, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
Red Sox
I've seen you around editing Patriots related articles. On your userpage, you say you are a Red Sox fan. You may be interested in joining the Red Sox Project. New England Review Me! 20:58, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Carolina Panthers
Please provide for me exactly why fan pages aren't allowed, and why you are monitoring a Panthers page to begin with.

Undrafted free agents in NFL infobox
