Hey man, I know it may have been a tough loss for the Chiefs on Thursday night, but Toney's performance was ''pretty'' noteworthy and made national headlines on [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. PFF's score (even though I also don't like them that much) was also somewhat notable. I don't want to start an edit war with you, but just wanted to talk it out. I may be a Bills fan, but even if a Bills player struggles, I wouldn't be opposed to putting something about his struggles if it's pretty noteworthy (see [[Nathan Peterman]] or even [[Josh Allen]]'s three pick game against the [[2021 Atlanta Falcons season|Atlanta Falcons]]).

:{{replyto|WuTang94}} It has absolutely nothing to do with my team losing. Several years ago we had a discussion at [[WT:NFL]] to only include notable games, like reaching career milestones, breaking records exceptionally good games (for example, a quarterback throwing for 400 yards and 4 TDs) and uncharacteristically bad games from good players (like if Patrick Mahomes threw for 125 yards no touchdowns and 4 interceptions). Verifiability does not guarantee inclusion. A google search of his name primarily just brings up results of him deleting his Twitter account and mentioning he had a couple critical drops. None of that qualifies for the consensus we came up with a few years ago to prevent NFL articles from getting excessively long.--<span style="color:red;">'''Rockchalk'''</span>'''[[User:Rockchalk717|7]][[User talk:Rockchalk717|17]]''' 16:27, 9 September 2023 (UTC) |

::Oh gotcha. I do notice that lots of pages still have language such as "against the [insert team here] so and so had [insert stats here]", which repeats for every game the player plays in a season and becomes repetitive and even crufty, when it can be summed up in just a few sentences such as "Daniel Jones had a much improved second half of the season" or "Kyler Murray struggled noticeably from week 4 to week 14 before injuring his knee", and I've already had to clean up Josh Allen's page a few times. |
|||
::I just thought it was noteworthy due to how crucial his drops were and how much coverage they got (even the [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&pages=Kadarius%20Toney&range=latest-30 page view metrics for his Wikipedia page] were the highest ever following the game). Arguably, that one drop that led to the pick six had more weight on the Chiefs losing, especially as they only lost by one point. But ultimately, it's your choice what ultimately do with Toney's page, but I do think this game might be a pivotal one in his career, as even with Nathan Peterman's page, obviously his five-pick first start is notable, but I'd at least expect some mention of his struggles in 2018 even if they weren't as noteworthy. Just my thoughts unless my edits really do go against the policy that was decided. [[User:WuTang94|WuTang94]] ([[User talk:WuTang94|talk]]) 16:41, 9 September 2023 (UTC) |

::Hello again. Not to mess up your talk page, I'll just continue here. I saw that you removed the sacks for Deacon Jones, and I removed Fred Dryer's. What do you suggest for the players who have totals listed, but started in 1981 or ended in 1982? L.T. for example, or Jack Youngblood.

Since you're a college football fan, I'm sure you remember the College of Faith football teams of the mid-2010s (yes, there were two — three if you count the University of Faith out of Florida). I do think this would be an extremely interesting project, but I first need to complete the game log for all three teams. What do you think? This Reddit post offers great insight on the history of College of Faith up to 2014: [https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/2le4az/oc_the_history_of_college_of_faith_background_on/ (OC) The History of College of Faith: Background on the Noble Idea that Failed in Practice]. |

First, be polite. Your curtness is irritating. |
|||
(See what I mean?) |
|||
Second, you have reverted several of my edits to Kansas Jayhawks related pages, especially to the 2023-24 MBB page. |
|||
You call them UNNECESARY EDITS but do not explain what makes them "unnecessary". |
|||
I was not in the mood to argue your previous reversions, but I am not letting the removal of the notice of the game honoring KU Alum and Hall John B. McLendon, Jr. go. |
|||
I understand I am a novice at this and you a seasoned hand, but that entry is a perfectly valid one and has even been addressed by KU AThletics on its website as part of its PR for the nonconference schedule. |
|||
Please contact me to discuss your reasoning. I would like to settle this misunderstanding between us, not in what looks to be a public forum. |
|||
I do not know how to contact you privately from here or I would. |

Perhaps you could help with this? |

Hi RC. I've been having a conversation with @[[User:Sergio Skol|Sergio Skol]] regarding official sacks being listed, no sacks prior to 1982 etc. Sergio asked if I could start a discussion about it. I'm asking you because I originally saw when you removed the stats for Deacon Jones. There's no rule that I see, but I'm against it because the amount of players to change and designate official/unofficial would be insane. This can't be swept under the rug, what do you suggest as far as a discussion? I can't let this go, because I'm not, you're not and Sergio will not be in the mood to revert these every week.

Regarding the 10 of 11 playoff losses thing on [[Kansas City Chiefs]], it seems really ridiculous to cherry pick stats like that and completely ignore part of the playoff run that happened that same season. That would be like if i said the Steelers had a 3-8 playoff record including and since the loss in Super Bowl XLV. Either include the whole postseason run or none of it. I believe it says between 1993 and 2017 correct? That includes the other playoff games then. If youre wondering, I’m not a chiefs fan saying this. I just think it doesn’t make sense to ignore part of a playoff run that happened the same season to further a choker narrative.

::::Still at least need a note at this moment to include several teams that have clinched division/playoff berths but not sure on seeds (or otherwise we need to include the seed possibilities that those teams fit since seeding is related to playoffs and those teams being left out doesn’t make sense) [[User:Hoopstercat|Hoopstercat]] ([[User talk:Hoopstercat|talk]]) 03:55, 7 January 2024 (UTC) |

==College football page lengths== |

I'm revisiting the [[Miami Hurricanes football]] page and wanted to ask: Have you seen an example of a page split into sub-pages as you propose? I looked at a few that are of equal or even greater length, such as [[Notre Dame Irish football]], and am not seeing that. I do see main and further references under headings, but that already exists on the Miami page. I think it's the history you believe should be broken up, and that's where I'm wondering if you have seen any examples of what you're proposing.

::All good. Notre Dame definitely has a history page that is linked in the main page. See [[History of Notre Dame Fighting Irish football]]. That's an example. That page goes more in depth. It's not the greatest example because the history section of the main page is still quite lengthy, but it has a history page.--<span style="color:red;">'''Rockchalk'''</span>'''[[User:Rockchalk717|7]][[User talk:Rockchalk717|17]]''' 23:49, 17 January 2024 (UTC) |

::HA! I was all ready to send a note during regulation ... and then I even got nervous. Back-to-back definitely is! I really didn't want a third team tied with six Super Bowls. But now I think that team from K.C. is going to make my head hurt in the near future. Hmmm. You're welcome and enjoy it once again. :) [[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]] ([[User talk:Bringingthewood|talk]]) 05:27, 12 February 2024 (UTC) |

Hello! I haven't had hardly negative feedback regarding improving references until your summary, which I believe is fair from your end. Just so happened to be a lot of information added to Chiefs players that was unsourced by other editors. I know KC teams are your interest so it would show up more for you on your Watchlists probably and I apologize. I was under the assumption that anything in the main body and record lists need a reliable source. I figured I would improve almost everything I could on players that had older information and incomplete citations so I could leave them alone for good until new information comes about. I personally could not find anything on the Butker item I placed a template on, and I spent a little bit of time looking for something. I can quit adding that "cn" template on stuff I cannot find but I thought that was protocol. I will improve the KC articles in moderation so you are not flooded. Thanks for all you do.

:{{replyto|Red Director}} I don't actually use watchlist. It just makes it harder to keep an eye on edits on some of these pages when I saw 10 prove it edits. I don't mind you fixing citations at all, it is important. It's just the amount of those edits get a little crazy sometimes. I do appreciate though. I don't you want you feel like I'm criticizing the work you do either, it is great and necessary.--<span style="color:red;">'''Rockchalk'''</span>'''[[User:Rockchalk717|7]][[User talk:Rockchalk717|17]]''' 17:21, 17 February 2024 (UTC) |

::{{replyto|Rockchalk171}}That is what I gathered. It can be a great task sometimes when I see a page have around 10-20 items that need verification or to be rewritten. Each item requires me to open the news link and get the information and that can be rather timely. The process is why I like some media better than others because some sites can autofill easily. When I see that my task is going to be greater on a page than others, I usually check the last version to make sure it is an acceptable version before I add content. Also, if a page has not been edited in a while, it kinds of gives me a personal green light to start major improvements. If I see a task is going to be repetitive, I do try to group those together to have 2-5 references taken care of in the same edit. Some of those take me while to get the information and that is why I do it that way. I knew from the Super Bowl edits that users made that I could use the same reference on that I would be splitting that task up into two editing periods. The last edit I usually do in the process is to get the date formats to match throughout. That edit is probably the cheesiest of them all unless there are many that need it. If it is going to be a small change, I try to group it in another edit. Congrats on your Super Bowl! You have a special situation there in KC and I can't wait to see where it goes.
