Greetings...

Hello, Jc121383, and welcome to Wikipedia!

To get started, click on the link that says "welcome".

I (and the rest of us here, too!) hope you like it here and decide to stay!

Happy editing! Mitico (talk) 19:32, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Portland Pirates players

Please do not add players to categories such as Category:Portland Pirates players until they have actually played in a regular-season or playoff game with that team. None of the Buffalo Sabres' prospects you added to that category have played for Portland yet. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. You never know: any one of those players could make the Sabres' roster straight out of training camp and never play for Portland. Or they could be traded before ever playing for Portland. Or they could suffer a career-ending injury and never play for Portland. In any case, please wait until they actually play for the team before categorizing them thusly. I actually heard one of these edits mentioned on WGR this morning (which tipped me off to the issue), as the morning show crew was wondering why Dylan Hunter was listed as having played for Portland when he hasn't yet. These types of errors hurt Wikipedia's credibilty; please think about this when editing. Thank you! Skudrafan1 (talk) 12:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uniformity of rosters

I have started a discussion over at Talk:List of current NLL team rosters which discussed the roster used on this page. If you are interested, please let me know what you think. Mitico (talk) 17:22, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
