== WP 1.0 bot announcement ==

This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment|WP 1.0 assessment system]]. On '''Saturday, January 23, 2010''', the [[User:WP 1.0 bot|WP 1.0 bot]] will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Lacrosse articles by quality statistics|summary table]] will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the [[Wikipedia talk:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Index|WP 1.0 project homepage]]. &mdash;&nbsp;Carl <small>([[User:CBM|CBM]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[User talk:CBM|talk]])</small> 03:30, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

As detailed in [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2010-03-22/Wikipedia-Books#Cleanup effort|last week's Signpost]], [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedia-Books|WikiProject Wikipedia books]] is undertaking a cleanup all [[Wikipedia:Books|Wikipedia books]]. Particularly, the {{tl|saved book}} template has been updated to allow editors to specify the default covers of the books. Title, subtitle, cover-image, and cover-color can all be specified, and an HTML preview of the cover will be generated and shown on the book's page (an example of such a cover is found on the right). Ideally, all books in [[:Category:Book-Class lacrosse articles]] should have covers.

If you need help with the {{tl|saved book}} template, or have any questions about books in general, see [[Help:Books]], [[Wikipedia:Books]], and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedia-Books]], or ask me on [[User talk:Headbomb|my talk page]]. Also feel free to join [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedia-Books|WikiProject Wikipedia-Books]], as we need all the help we can get.

== Sports Notability ==

There is discussion ongoing at [[Wikipedia_talk:BIO#RFC:_WP:Athlete_Professional_Clause_Needs_Improvement]] debating possible changes to the [[WP:ATHLETE]] notability guideline.

== Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons ==

The [[WP:URBLP|WikiProject Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons]] (UBLPs) aims to reduce the number of unreferenced biographical articles to under 30,000 by June 1, primarily by enabling WikiProjects to easily identify UBLP articles in their project's scope.  There were over 52,000 unreferenced BLPs in January 2010 and this has been reduced to 32,665 as of May 16.  A [[WP:Bots|bot]] is now running daily to compile a list of all articles that are in both [[:Category:All unreferenced BLPs]] and have been tagged by a WikiProject. Note that the bot does NOT place unreferenced tags or assign articles to projects - this has been done by others previously - it just compiles a list.

Your Project's list can be found at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Lacrosse/Unreferenced BLPs]].  As of May 17 you have approximately 48 articles to be referenced. The list of all other WikiProject UBLPs can be found at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons/WikiProjects]]. 

Your assistance in reviewing and referencing these articles is greatly appreciated.  If you have any questions, please don't hestitate to ask either at [[WT:URBLP]] or at my talk page.  Thanks, [[User:The-Pope|The-Pope]] ([[User talk:The-Pope|talk]]) 17:19, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

== [[List of college men's lacrosse coaches by career wins]] ==

I saw there were similar articles created recently for other college sports (football, hockey, and basketball), and decided to make one of these for lacrosse head coaches. The arbitrary cut-off that I used was 250 wins.

I used the 2009 NCAA record book and added the past seasons results for active coaches, but did notice that the NCAA record book does not count [[Dick Edell]]'s record at the University of Baltimore (1973&ndash;1975), which would put him at either 237 or 282 wins, depending on whether you count those or not. To my knowledge, UBalt was Division II at the time, so those wins should count towards his all-time NCAA record. Oddly, the NCAA record book counted Richie Meade's wins/losses at UBalt from 1979 to 1982, so I don't know if there was an oversight with Edell or whether there were NCAA violations or something of which I am not aware (and sort of doubt) during his tenure there.
Anyone have anything on this? [[User:Strikehold|Strikehold]] ([[User talk:Strikehold|talk]]) 01:59, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

'''''re: Dick Edell'''''

:* I see nothing 'suspicious' in U B's schedule for that period. U B's 1973 schedule is tough with opponents Ohio Wesleyan, Roanoke, Maryland (1973 DI champ), Hofstra (#6 seed DI), Washington Shoremen (USILA finalist), Towson, UMBC & Washington & Lee (#4 seed DI). Baltimore reached the USILA (non-Division I year-end tournament) quarterfinals against Washington beating Roanoke to get there. Further research -- "5-12-75 Salisbury Times - Ohio Wesleyan and Morgan State, ranked 10th and llth in last week's USILA College Division poll were included in the (tournament) field over the teams which ranked seventh, eighth and ninth — Roanoke, Adelphi and Baltimore U". UB's schedule looks legitimate, nothing so far on any violations. I'd suggest including Baltimore's wins/losses as part of Edell's overall coaching record. Thanks ! --[[User:10stone5|10stone5]] ([[User talk:10stone5|talk]]) 01:11, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

::*Thanks for checking into that. Edell's UB record is included in the list and on his article. I had the feeling that the NCAA figure was wrong, but it is bizarre that they just didn't count the UB games for Edell, while they did for I think [[Richie Meade]]. [[User:Strikehold|Strikehold]] ([[User talk:Strikehold|talk]]) 21:13, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

:I have caught what appear to be a few more errors in the NCAA Record Book: It puts Richie Meade as UBalt head coach in 1979 (while the UBalt yearbook and Meade's Navy bio say he arrived in 1980), and it may also have incorrect number of wins for [[Jim Adams (lacrosse)|Jim (Ace) Adams]] (284 vice 286 or 287)... I wonder if wins/losses against club teams may be partly to blame for the differing numbers though? [[User:Strikehold|Strikehold]] ([[User talk:Strikehold|talk]]) 04:32, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

::* F*** the NCAA record book. I had a great link for this, might have come from some Hopkins pre-game notes. I'll see if I can find it. Meanwhile, I like what you've developed - and will be glad to verify as much as possible, and of course will link to this page. Thanks ! --[[User:10stone5|10stone5]] ([[User talk:10stone5|talk]]) 17:09, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

== Lacrosse articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release ==

Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the [[Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team|Wikipedia 1.0 team]] for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone.  Articles were [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Article selection|selected based on their assessed  importance and quality]], then article ''versions'' (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the [[WikiTrust]] algorithm.

We would like to ask you to review the [http://toolserver.org/~enwp10/bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&namespace=0&pagename=&quality=&importance=&score=&limit=100&offset=1&sorta=Importance&sortb=Quality&filterRelease=on&reviewFilter=0&releaseFilter=1&projecta=Lacrosse Lacrosse articles and revisionIDs we have chosen]. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at '''[[Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8]]''' with the details.  You may wish to look at your WikiProject's [http://toolserver.org/~cbm/cgi-bin/problems.cgi articles with cleanup tags] and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at [[Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8]]. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.

We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010.  As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as [[One Laptop per Child]] and [http://schools-wikipedia.org/ Wikipedia for Schools] to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide.  Please help us, with [[Wikipedia_talk:Version_0.8|your WikiProject's feedback]]!

== Removing Player Nationality Flags ==

I have been working on updating some NLL pages for the upcoming season and have noticed that most teams which have rosters on their page are horribly out of date (we're talking years behind). I believe a major reason for this is that next to each player's name is their nationality. This makes it way too hard to update because often times it is EXTREMELY difficult to find where a lesser known player was born. As such, I am starting to remove these flags from the roster section of each team's page. I hope that nobody here disagrees with this as it really isn't pertinent information anyway, and it will make it a lot easier to keep this information up to date! --[[User:Xander756|Xander756]] ([[User talk:Xander756|talk]]) 21:30, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

== Disambiguation needed: Eamon McEneaney and Eamon McAnaney ==

There is a page for McEneaney, highly regarded Cornell attackman who played in the mid-late 1970s and who died in the Towers on 9/11.  There is also a Notre Dame defenseman McAnaney who played in the late 80s, early 90s is living and working as a lacrosse announcer for ESPN online sports broadcasts.

I do not know how to edit disambiguation links, and I don't know enough about the announcer McAnaney to know whether he would merit a page under the living persons standards for lacrosse.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/67.180.228.39|67.180.228.39]] ([[User talk:67.180.228.39|talk]]) 21:17, 27 February 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Comment on the WikiProject X proposal ==

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please '''[[meta:Grants:IEG/WikiProject X|review the proposal here]]''' and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my [[User talk:Harej|talk page]]. Thank you for your time! <small>(Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.)</small> [[User:Harej|Harej]] ([[User talk:Harej|talk]]) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
