Fair use rationale for Image:90_Days_number_24.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:90_Days_number_24.jpg. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 08:36, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit]I took care of the awards/accomplishments section. Also, thanks for the helpful suggestions. I was able to do most of them, and will put in some more work when I have more time. I've been looking for a better photo for quite awhile, but have had no luck. Hopefully one will turn up at some point next season. StormXor 08:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Cardinals Care
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/35/Information_icon.svg/62px-Information_icon.svg.png)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Cardinals Care, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Cardinals Care seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Cardinals Care, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 07:00, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
I have reviewed the article and the talk page, and declined the speedy based on your comments as well as my own trivial search for <"Cardinals Care"> on Google News which netted 470 results - quite good. However, I have added a {{primarysources}} template to the article because right now all the references are from the Cardinals' official site. Although the amount of coverage in Google News means that secondary sources (write-ups of Cardinals Care by parties that are unrelated to it) are likely to be easily found, I felt that I had to add it as a reminder to you, the primary editor. (Your passionate defence of the article on the talk page is another reason why I'm addressing this to you specifically, instead of on the article talk page. ;-)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Cardinals Care, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Cardinals Care.

Bolding vs. quotation marks
[edit]Thanks for your input on Ryan Braun. Tough week, what with holiday travel, but I will do what I can to respond timely. Quick initial question. You suggested that we remove the Bold type from “The Hebrew Hammer” in the introduction paragraph, and instead place quotations around it. My understanding from the closest example I can find, under WP:NAMES, is that -- as with Slim Pickens -- bolding is appropriate here. If you have a better source for a closer analogy, I will be happy to change from bold to quotes as you suggest.--Epeefleche (talk) 21:26, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

The Wizard
[edit]Thanks for the compliment on the user name, Ghostbusters is great stuff. The stuff in there about Shandor is classic. Anyway, I am just returning to Wiki after a 5 month hiatus, I will put Ozzie at the top of my to-do list. I just happen to be a huge Ozzie Smith fan, he's my favorite player from when I was young. Still a big Cards fan. Hope I can help. IvoShandor (talk) 19:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

NYT article - Ozzie
[edit]Hey I might be able to get you that article for free, I have access to ProQuest, I just have to update my login info with the university, I will do it in the next couple days. Then I can email the PDF article. Also, I can't stop listening to that 85 LCS home run call, it's my earliest baseball memory (besides a passing memory of the 84 Series), I will never forget where I was and what I was doing at the ripe old age of 6 when Ozzie hit that home run. Digression over, I should be able to get your article for you. :) IvoShandor (talk) 12:20, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- Haven't had a chance to look for this article as it involves me resetting up my account and downloading the software necessary to access the university's network, and I am kinda lazy on my days off. Sorry. I noticed you have been doing some work on Ozzie and making some notes on the peer review, I have them both watchlisted and have been checking in here and there periodically, things are looking good, looks like there probably some stuff left to do and look into but so is the nature of Wikipedia I suppose. When the article gets to a more "final" point I can look it over again and probably bring in some other outside eyes to take a look too. IvoShandor (talk) 08:23, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- I have still been monitoring the progress on Ozzie, and watching it too in case vandals strike and no one else notices. Keep up the good work. IvoShandor (talk) 12:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Ozzie Smith facts
[edit]This article I found, http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/news/2002/01/07/oz_hall/ , has a factbox on the side that lists Ozzie career rankings for Games Played, Double Plays, and Fielding % all at shortstop, which are missing from the statbox for career fielding on his page. But I'm hesitant to use the article as a reference because it's six years old and may no longer be correct, especially with a guy like Vizquel still playing. Do you think it's worth using?

Moshin 18:37, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
In reply to your posts on wp:baseball talk, the article looks good. The only thing I believe should be worked on is the sourcing for the intro. Users do oppose for those reasons sometimes. Also, be careful about the post you made. The part about asking for support is borderline canvassing. Cheers.--LAAFan 21:49, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Ozzie sidewalk.JPG)
[edit] Thanks for uploading File:Ozzie sidewalk.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit]The userbox {{User Good Articles reviewed}} has been updated so that it can now link to a page in your user subspace where you keep track of all your GA reviews, if you have such a page. This can be done by adding a | and then the name of your user subpage (or subsection of your regular user page) wherever you have the template called. For example, on my user page I am using
{{User Good Articles reviewed|6|User:Rjanag/GA reviews}}
which displays as

There is more information on how to do this at Template:User Good Articles reviewed.
Note: If you are not interested in doing this, you don't have to do anything; the template will still work for you exactly as it does now.

GA Sweeps invitation
[edit]Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

Stan Musial talk page
[edit]I've left a fuller message there. Please reply at your convenience.208.120.7.152 (talk) 06:52, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't perceive that we're operating at cross-purposes here, and I hope you won't either. Your most recent Musial edits all look fine and sensible to me. I've added references for both the "lost '48 home run" quotes... both originally come from books, so perhaps even better refs can be added later.
- I wrote about my 8/5 edits to the intro in some detail on the Musial talk page (explanation on July 20, edits on August 5). I hope that will help illuminate their premises and reasoning, and I'd be happy to explain further if needed. The intro's two main problems (as I saw them) were its style (phraseology, copyediting), and its emphases (there was more space devoted to his sandlot ball, year in the Navy and year as GM than to Stan Musial the actual baseball player).
- I doubt you're unhappy about the statistical information I added to the Musial intro. As for the other edits, many other players with lengthier and more significant WW2 absences than Musial's (e.g. Ted Williams, Warren Spahn, Bob Feller, et al) have Wiki intros that mention their military service in passing, or not at all. The same goes for virtually all players' pre-MLB careers, except where compellingly notable (e.g. Daisuke Matsuzaka, Lefty Grove). Going by the examples of other players' articles, the athletic activity of their youth is generally not considered intro-worthy material, particularly since that period of their life is typically the very next item in the full article.
- I hope you will be reassured to learn that I've been editing Wikipedia for several years, albeit under anonymous IP addresses. My reasons for doing so are simple. I've seen far too many situations on this site that have turned nasty and personal, and feuds that extended past the point of original disagreement. Over the years, my provider has naturally rotated my IP address, which minimizes the possibility of longterm, one-on-one conflicts. Also, I have no interest in building a Wikipedia profile or reputation (aspiring to an admin slot, amassing article reviews, commendations, etc.). There's nothing wrong with those ambitions, of course. I just don't have 'em. Since official Wikipedia policy prohibits bias against contributions by anonymous editors, the only major drawback to anonymity is that I'm occasionally obliged to explain my status and history, as I'm doing right now. I'm always ready to interact and collaborate with any Wikipedia user.
- If you're curious to see other baseball-related articles that I have substantially edited (in some cases, over 50% of the text is directly attributable to me), you can go to Spahn, Cy Young, Rickey Henderson, Phil Rizzuto, Pedro Martinez, Greg Maddux, and others. If you're really curious (or incredibly bored), you can investigate the edit history of Rickey Henderson's intro, before I was able to streamline the prose and shoehorn in a lot of competing information to the other editors' satisfaction. I hope these articles will be to your liking, will soothe any concerns you may have about my editing ability or intent, and will generally mesh with your ultimate goals for Stan Musial's page.208.120.7.152 (talk) 14:10, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Musial cleanup
[edit]I've made a few edits for style, added a few references, restored a little text, and done some general polishing to the bottom half of Musial's page. Take a look when you get a chance. Thanks!208.120.7.152 (talk) 08:43, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
More on the Man
[edit](cross-posted on User_talk:208.120.7.152)
Monowi-- Your paternal interest in my Wikipedia apprenticeship is misplaced. I've been editing Wikipedia for more than five years, and have never been unavailable to other editors. In fact, we're interacting right now! I understand that some editors prefer dealing with a username to an IP address, but I don't. What if I'd edited the page as "MusialFan1" instead of "208.120.7.152"? How would that have impacted your opinion of anything regarding this discussion?
You've cited WP:LEAD several times, Monowi. But many of your reversions haven't fit the criteria spelled out on that page. I'd appreciate if you took another look at it yourself. In particular, WP:LEAD instructs us to restrict introductory text to "concise overviews," "roughly reflect(ing) its importance to the topic." It also instructs us to "establish context."
Let's take "importance" first. WP:LEAD says the following-- "The emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic." Thus, the inclusion of Stan Musial's high school baseball days and uneventful year in the service are out of place in a Wikipedia intro. Ted Williams' five years as a military pilot are dealt with in 10 words in his Wiki intro, then detailed later. Bob Feller was the first player to enlist; his years of service aren't mentioned at all in his intro. Warren Spahn fought in the Battle of the Bulge; no intro mention. Yogi Berra landed at D-Day; no intro mention. Wiki bio after Wiki bio of the 500+ WW2-era baseball players follow the same pattern. Their leads omit this information, but you keep reinserting Stan Musial's time at the Philadelphia Navy Yard into the second paragraph. Is this according to WP:LEAD?
In a similar vein, other than your own Ozzie Smith text, I can find almost no examples of a prominent baseball player whose high school (and pre-high school) activity is highlighted in their Wikipedia introduction. David Clyde's intro emphasizes it, but that's because Clyde's fame is entirely predicated on the fact that he went directly to the major leagues from high school, and burned out doing so. Musial's fame doesn't derive from his teenaged years. Other than being switched from pitcher to hitter (which IS referenced in the intro), there's nothing unusual about his path to St. Louis. WP:LEAD states, "In general, the relative emphasis given to material in the lead should reflect its relative importance to the subject." And Stan Musial isn't remembered by history or the public as a former sailor who once attended Donora High School.
Next, "context." Your current revert has taken valuable context out of the intro, notably his rankings in various offensive categories at the time of his retirement. Musial is currently 28th on the all-time HR list, for example, but increases in power numbers have radically changed MLB's leader boards. It adds perspective to the reader to note that in 1963, Musial was 5th. You've also removed the two quotes by his peers that attest to Musial's reputation within the game. For the second time, your edits have wiped those quotes entirely off the page. Meanwhile, your revised intro now mentions Musial's 1969 HoF election twice, along with double mentions for his nickname, and his World Series wins. You've called the result the "last revision that had a decent lead section," but I'd like to hear why.
No, I don't "happen to like Nate Colbert," but the fact that one of the only two players in baseball history to hit 5 HRs was physically at the other one's doubleheader is certainly worth a sentence-- Colbert's Wikipedia page mentions the coincidence in an identical manner. It has to be more notable than Musial's nondescript 2,957th career hit, for instance, or his hoping to get his 3,000th hit at home (like every milestone player ever), or a non-historic 1-for-15 stretch in a 10.900-at-bat career (e.g. Musial began 1955 hitting 3-for-19, and began 1956 hitting 2-for-15). Meanwhile, you oppose the much-reported two-baseball incident that has made its way into numerous baseball books and websites (and which you mistakenly said was unreferenced).
Other references you've deleted include the box scores for the pair of games in which Musial had the Cards' only hit. Surely these are more useful Wiki links than another Lansche ref; also, both of the dates you've reverted to are incorrect. A POV alert: Musial didn't "spoil" either of the no-hitters, since his hits were mid-game ones. You've also removed useful context from the article, such as where Musial's consecutive game streak stands historically, or the context and aftermath of the 1957 All-Star voting.
We know that it's common for Wiki's editors to take a proprietary interest in certain pages or topics. Yes, Wikipedia policy advises against it, but I don't think it's so bad when it's done in a positive way. So I appreciate your stewardship of the Stan Musial page. However, I left fairly lengthy explanations of my previous edits on both the Musial discussion page and your talk page, and I asked you directly for specific objections. That I should get a username and learn how to someday improve isn't exactly the fulsome reply I was anticipating.
Therefore, I'm again asking you to explain why you feel the particular, specific text that's come and gone in your edits should have come, and should have gone.
I won't make any further edits or re-reverts until we've come to some consensus. Your obvious seriousness of purpose and interest in improving Cardinal articles convinces me that we will.208.120.7.152 (talk) 05:54, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, Monowi. You appear to be back on the site more frequently after a quieter stretch. I'd still appreciate a response to the above set of concerns, before I resume editing in accordance with WP:LEAD and other Featured Articles for baseball stars. It appears there have only been 8 of those (unless you count Jim Thorpe), and I'm sure we can work together to make this #9. Thanks a lot!208.120.6.244 (talk) 08:30, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
- Hello again. I'd prefer not to interfere with the Good Article nom by making it "unstable" with edits, but you have not responded to my specific queries. Please do so.

Ozzie Smith (born 1954) is a retired American professional baseball player who was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002. Nicknamed "The Wizard," Smith played shortstop for the San Diego Padres and St. Louis Cardinals in Major League Baseball, winning the National League Gold Glove Award for play at shortstop for 13 consecutive seasons. A 15-time All-Star, Smith accumulated 2,460 hits and 580 stolen bases during his career, and won the National League Silver Slugger Award as the best hitter at shortstop in 1987. Smith continued to earn Gold Gloves and All Star appearances on an annual basis until 1993, and later missed nearly three months of the 1995 season after undergoing shoulder surgery. After tension between Smith and his new manager Tony La Russa developed in 1996, Smith decided to retire at season's end, and subsequently had his uniform number (# 1) retired by the Cardinals. Smith served as host of the television show This Week in Baseball from 1997 to 1999, and continues to be an entrepreneur in a variety of business ventures. (more...)

[edit]Hello, you are receiving this message because you are currently a participant of WikiProject Good articles. Since the creation of the WikiProject, over 200 user's have joined to help review good article nominations and contribute to other sections of the WikiProject. Over the years, several of these users have stopped reviewing articles and/or have become inactive with the project but are still listed as participates. In order to improve communications with other participants and get newsletters sent out faster (newsletters will begin to be sent out monthly starting in October) all participants that are no longer active with the WikiProject will be removed from the participants list.
If you are still interested in being a participant for this WikiProject, please sign your user name here and please help review some articles so we can reduce the size of the backlog. If you are no longer interested, you do not need to sign your name anywhere and your name will be removed from the participants list after the deadline. Remember that even if you are not interested at this time, you can always re-add your name to the list whenever you want. The deadline to sign your name on the page above will be November 1, 2012.

GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive
[edit]![]() In past Backlog Drives, the goal was to reduce the backlog of Good article nominations. In the upcoming drive, another goal will be added - raising as much money as we can for the Wikimedia Foundation. How will this work? Well, its pretty simple. Any user interested in donating can submit a pledge at the Backlog Drive page (linked above). The pledge should mention the amount of money the user is willing to donate per review. For example, if a user pledges 5 cents per review and 100 nominations are reviewed, the total donation amount is $5.00. At the time this message was sent out, two users have submitted pledges for a total of 8 cents per review. All pledges, no matter how much money, are greatly appreciated. Also, in no way is this saying you must make a pledge. |

March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
[edit]It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:
- This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
- Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
- The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
- An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.
Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.
More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.
I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive
[edit]Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!
TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.
If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.
At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.
As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup
[edit]Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!
As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:
For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.
For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).
The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good Articles - GA Cup
[edit]
![]() WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the GA Cup, from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing Good article nominations; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers. Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! Sign-ups will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the four judges. Cheers from NickGibson3900, Dom497, TheQ Editor and Figureskatingfan. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC) To receive future GA Cup newsletter, please add your name to our mailing list.
